Appears to be the Spanish equivalent of Motor Meister working on that rice... Does that make it Paella?

I'll never understand how a shop or a person goes to this much trouble to do a shoddy job!!!!!! FOR SHAME!

Oh my god....I can't stop reading it. Its like watching a train wreck in slow motion.

"Hey Carlos! Lets deck the block with a metal file I picked up at Home Depot."

I thought for sure this was a joke, but it ain't. Poor SOBS sank some money into that piece of garbage too. How could anyone with an internet connection do it THAT wrong? Or better yet, have some freaking clue that they are in over their heads?

The freaking airbox welded (and I use the term 'weld' loosely) out of deck steel. The primary color paint job on EVERYTHING. Wow....I don't feel so bad about some of the plumbing I have done in my house after seeing this.....
