my first 240 took a year and $10,000 to “finish” although a car is always capable of being modified even more. ---

I did all the work myself, and I’m being liberal with my costs. the car only cost me 600, and the rest of the money spent was on the silva front end, coilovers, fuel lines, ebrake lines, and misc metal, I only spent about 300 on metal for actual repairs. ---

But If I had the opportunity I would have taken the car there. Dan is the King of body work. And hey, you might catch me being lazy there once and a while too. Or fudging around with the electrical work that no one else wants to do (lol) or general whatever. Just go to meanstreet or I kill you ! :twisted: no really, they are REALLY really good, and freindly to boot. (gots tittays on the wall as well… mmm jublies) ---
