I had a treat at work today. As I was busting my a$$ , o.k. washing my hands getting ready for a Coke, a group of street rods pulled into my shop. About 15 in total. A fella gets out and tells me he has an exhaust leak and could I take care of it. I said sure, lets pull it on the hoist. He tells me it won't take a minute. How the he!! he knows that is beyond me, but I line him up to pull on the hoist. I have to adjust the runners when this voice cuts through the air. SIR! SIR! are you going to guide my husband on the hoist or what! I turned to her and said lets make sure it will fit first, o.k.? I adjusted the hoist and guided a very nice 37 Ford coupe onto the hoist. I let him drive it in. Somthing I rarely do, but he was cleaner than I. I got it in the air and found all of his exhaust hangers loose and rattling. I also found the pass side collector flange missing two bolts and the aluminum gasket distorted and leaking. He told me not to worry about all that stuff and just put some bolts in it. I said the gasket is bad and I can replace it for him. He tells me rudely to put bolts in it. Now i'm pi$$ed! I tell him since he won't let me fix it lets just pull it off of the hoist now and save all the trouble. He says fine fix it! I now ask him to please step out of my shop area so I can go to work. I remove the last bolt and remove the aluminum gasket which is badly distorted. I show him the gasket and tell him I will go get a composite gasket and he says to just put that one back in. I said it will leak but o.k. I straighten the gasket, apply sealant and reinstall with new bolts. I tell him it does not leak right now, but it will. This $hitbag tells me he turned every nut and bolt on the car. HA. He paid someone I bet. He told me it must be unnerving to work on a car like this. Double HA. What a self important a$$. He thanked me and my wife as he left. I am sure he is laughing it up with his buddies on how he told that stupid knuckle buster how to fix his car. You know, I wouldn't have even charged him had he not been such an uptite a$$! I like working on rods and like helping people in a bind even more. Sorry to vent but that dude really got under my skin. Maybe next time I will just say no! Well probably not.
Nothing would be finer. And if I can help you out, even better. 
to all!
