ok, first things first. my mechanic is in Mentone Beach CA.
he made the offer to cut the price because one I refer alot of work to him (family has five, mom one, sister one) plus all my friends, and two he's taking pitty on me after two wrecks and three motor rebuilds in the last year and a half (shouldn't give teenagers and moms cars) if you SOCAL guys want the number I will give it to you.he can work on everything with an engine and he is a darn good body guy he has tow service also and a welder on staff. PS. does replacing the whole front of the car count as a mod
