Oh sweet gently caress I just noticed the seatbelts are attached to the exhaust-pipe cage with carabiners  . The amount you would have to pay me to sit in that while it was moving would bankrupt a small country.e: a classic

I think he just couldn't keep it running due to the carb being a pile of poo poo tuned by a retard. It destroying the tie rod driving over a couple junk cars really shows how terrible it is, I could do that without breaking anything in my old cherokee and that thing was a pile even by my standards.

I wasn't able to get a photo of it, because I was driving in traffic - but would you hire a PDR guy whose van had multiple visible-from-20'-away dents?

He probably fixes other people's dents all day and when he gets home doesn't want to bother fixing his own. Also a dent that's visible from 20' is probably beyond being fixed by PDR.

As already mentioned, PDR won't fix that.. but I wouldn't hold that against them. Every "real" mechanic I know drives a complete pile of poo poo for one of two reasons: 1) It's the latest 'fixer upper' project and needs more drive time. 2) Don't want to screw with cars when done screwing with cars for the day. Most fall into the first category; have only run into the second with folks within a few years of retirement and/or liver failure.

Every "real" mechanic I know drives a complete pile of poo poo for one of two reasons: I appreciate the "cobbler's kids go barefoot" argument, but I think it's different when it's the vehicle you're turning up to the client in, and it's acting as your rolling billboard.

Whenever we had prospective clients fly in, our standard operating procedure was to dent the hell out of their (rental) car, and have one of our network PDR guys come by and work his magic during the meeting.

had to drive behind this poo poo this morning.  Plates are from FL, Shot in VA.. the gently caress you need a raised truck like that for in FL  I stared at the decal on the back window for a solid 10 minutes.. it was some kind of helicopter or some stupid bullshit. I'd also like to note the glossy finish on the rear diff with the bald eagle painted on that had an american flag overlayed. Fatty_McLumpkin fucked around with this message at 14:48 on Apr 3, 2013 |

Yeah, to my ears it's not even running that poorly. It's just that he keeps stabbing the loud pedal and jumping off it. Any carb'd vehicle is going to start to flood if you keep that up.

No see they need the extra ground clearance to hop medians in the mall parking lot okay. Also MUDDIN'.

Perhaps this person is very polarized against chew and wishes to proclaim such by way of a personalized plate.
