Hi Bob,

The garage is 20min. from the house and he had it two days.  I don't know
a soul here who has the time and experience to do the job "buddy style." 
I know I couldn't do it!   Could I have had you do the job and expect to
see my car within 2 to 3 days for $200, if that is what you charge your
friends?  Just asking.  

Driving season is miserably short here as you know.

Al Graffam  '74 CT

Yep.

And I've done the job for a few buddies too.

The labor should be more like $200, IMHO.

But you're happy, and that's what counts!
