so. engine blew on the 11th. check
finally get it to guys place doing work on 21st. check
now at the 7th, and its still not done. great
first few days they tell me theyre having dumb problems with the car. at first, they didnt start til sat the 22 because the ****tard tow driver put the keys under the seat and didnt tell anyone. so sat night theyre having trouble with the engine/tranny not seperating. i go over for a bit, finally remember the TOB fork. undo that, and they had it apart later that night
then they call me mon/tues to tell me they got it together but the clutch wont disengage. well, dumbasses didnt listen to me about removing the TOB and having it on the forks. so i try leaving him a few messages, telling him i found some things on how to remove it, but he doesnt call back.
so thurs/fri i get a message from the guy who did the work last year (this is his buddy doing it), telling me theyre having an issue w/ the TOB (that i know about already) but theyre getting it taken care of. so im hoping i can have my car back sunday (30th). no message
so this thurs or fri i try to call the guy from last year. cell phone disconnected. so i call one of the guys doing the work. amazingly, he answers. lets me know that its together, but the other guy lost the nut for the ball joint or something and is bringing one home from work, and it should be done that night. good
5 min later i get a call from guy from last year, tells me same thing, but says once theyre done theyre gonna bring it to him, and hes going to go over it and make sure everything is correct, and i should have it sat morning. ok.
tonight, i get a message from him, said that the ball joint stripped, had to be replaced, 32$, and another 20$ for him to press it. then he tells me the TOB will not stay in the PP. he says he can get a new TOB for 60$ or a new kit for 160. no thanks. so now i have ordered a 90$ kit from ebay, hope to god it will be here by wed/thurs so my **** will be back on the road
and the part that pisses me off the most? they agreed to tear down the old motor for 50$ so i didnt have to bring it 25 miles across town, attempt to get it out of my brothers van, and tear it apart. i agreed. that was on the 22nd. well, i tried a few times to get ahold of them to get the parts to take to the PGH meet to sell and make some money, but since no one can return my calls, my parts are still at the garage, and i had no parts to sell
