Let's narrow it down, is it a shop that Carless Chris has worked at before?

What about "The Mustang Shop"? Whatever happened to ol' Doc?

None of them, as far as I know he's completely out of the industry.

That's good news for the industry.

I have news for you guys that take your cars to "shops". They ALL have done something like this at one point in time or the other.

When your shop gets overwhelmed with work, the "main guy" doesn't get to do all the work and you get a sub-par shop rat who may or may not do the same "quality" work you've become used to. Or, your customer started out on a "BIG" budget and near the end of the project - runs out of money.. and says something like "get it done, I don't care what it looks like". The same reasons I don't open a shop, the same reasons i work by myself.

Truth.

I've fixed stuff like:

• lamp cord used to wire an MSD box
• short block failed - die grinder'd valve reliefs
• strange brakes installed with brackets on wrong side of car (VERY BAD!)
• multiple gear sets that whined beyond belief
• LOTS of "fabrication"
• LOTS of headgaskets
• replaced "stolen" parts

No , I wasn't kidding. You leave us to assume, so I assume what I want. And yes I know you work there.

Another vote for it not being Dallas Mustang as Noah is top notch and would never put his name on work like that.

[Txstang1]

Your kidding right. I work there and Noah doesnt do shady tree work like that.

No, didn't realize that (shows how long I've been without a hotrod). Which one did Keith spin off to? That's the one that I would stay away from.

None of them, as far as I know he's completely out of the industry.

[Buick355]

You know they've been closed for 5+ years now right? It's funny how many businesses spun off of there though that are actually reputable.

Be glad this shop didn't pull the heads off and slap some RTV between them and the block.

I saw that shit on a GT I bought, a lot of it too.

[Fastlane]

Yet they were doing transmission work?

The shop was supposed to be doing a tranny and clutch swap along with a tune. Things went horribly wrong due to the "slam bam get er done fuck it it's not my car" attitude and they had to pull the transmission 2 more times to fix all the things that were fucked up.

[Whiteboy]

hahaha, I bet is was Dallas Mustang.

Your kidding right. I work there and Noah doesnt do shady tree work like that.
