Just wondering if anyone knows if they are good or not. It's right by my house, so I figured I'd check it out...

Haven't even got it yet, tellin the guy if it's not ready this week I want my deposit back. Anyway I know it needs Cats or a cat to pass emissions and it doesn't have one.

Plus I was just looking for a decent shop to go to for small things or even big. If I had a garage I'd say **** it and do everything myself.. and if I couldn't.. I'd learn.

Re: Anyone know if this shop is good?

If you do end up with the car, there are a few of us on here that would be able help you out with room to be able to work on it. I get one day a month to do car stuff with other people, and usually we have a good time over here. Depends on what you would need done, we might be able to do things over here. MasterDisaster is learning a lot about these cars and is a good help too. What all is this guy having to fix? I would take the car with a discount for the parts and labor. Depending on what is going on, we can most likely get things fixed for you and make sure things are done correctly as well.

Re: Anyone know if this shop is good?

We agreed that when I came to get the car... it would be have the AC put back (Cannot live without AC in AZ... I wish)... all 4 matching GTA wheels (only has 2, and then 2 firebird wheels)... New Dash Pad (done), Windows/Doors (Done.. even got powered ones)... and primered. His buddy has a parts car he's getting stuff from He's also suppose to clean the inside, change all fluids and make sure its 100% good. That's all he needs to do. He's had 3weeks!

Then when I get it, I know it needs Cat's. I'm not sure what else it will need to pass emissions.

I'd love to come hang and work on our cars. That'd be awesome. I dont know everything. Back in the day I had my trans am, I did interior work etc but never did much with the motor etc. This time will be different!
