dude doesnt have a YouTube channel to gawk at.
seriously the most honest mechanic I have ever met. I do plenty DIY, but there are some things I farm out to him. logistic hell, since his shop is 1.5 hours away. I moved but kept him and my dentist from my old city. roadtripped to both of them. my Dentist finally pulled the plug and retired, now this crazy talk from the mechanic.
true story. my wife's car was making a clunk. I couldn't find it, and he wanted a shot at it. "its your shock mounts"
"no, I dont think so"
"yes"
"no". I left it with him and he changed the shocks. I went to pick up the car and he wouldn't take my money. hahah..we argued like fools fighting over the dinner check. it wasnt the shocks. hahahha.. we put it back on the rack and looked and looked. we found it together. it was a motor mount. I ordered a bunch of pizza's for him and his crew...and we became buds. there is one time I couldnt unclip this harness on my MIL's car..in frustration I went to Frank. he laughed and said, its because you dont have this tool!! (took him two seconds). he once stayed on speaker phone with me as I eased out a tough spark plug from my tacoma head..
I sent my BIL to him with his Toyotas. my BIL texted me and said. "frank is thinking of retiring and wants to learn to kayak fish - what should I tell him?"
hahahha.. I'm driving to meet him tomorrow to discuss a shopping list. oh, I have opinions.
