This is why it is okay to not be the first to get one.

 

Its gone...

 

Hmmmm...I saw it earlier today, they must have violated some flebay rule?
Does flebay have some sort of "no sticking it up the azz and breaking it off" ruling? [:@]

 

I worked for Whitmoyers back in the late 80's. The owners is a real tool. He fits the salesman mold perfectly, pinky ring and all.

 

Hey Gorn, remember the time you tried to put a set of simple front brake pads on an Oldsmobile Calais and you ended up plowing through the garage door at Whitmoyers?!? Were you in a drunken stupor that time or is that part of the repair procedure when doing brake jobs genius?? You're the BEST technician ever! By the way, I ordered my new Camaro $5,000 over list from Whitmoyers the other day. Have a good day and don't hurt yourself chief.

 

looks like you have an enemy

 

I never claimed anything other then, I was a tech.

It’s true, I forgot to pump the brakes before I got started it and put it in gear. The fuel injection went to high idle and the car took off. Took 3 pumps to get the brake back but I only had time for one: Fail Big time. The year before I put a head gasket on upside down. I didn't even notice it until I started putting the intake on. :Fail Two years before that I took a radiator cap off a car that was in for overheating without checking for pressure. The blast burned my arm soaked the car next to me. I never did find the rad cap.: Painful Fail
All stupid mistakes caused by rushing.

I also graduated from Vale Tech in Blairsville, PA with a 3.94 GPA
I built engine, suspension and brakes for this race car 18 months after graduation (#15)http://i226.photobucket.com/albums/d...ks_cheve-1.jpg
It came in 4th place its first night out (out of 9 cars)
I got 4 ASE certification in one night of testing.
I was the foreman of the largest GM dealership in Lancaster with 12 mechanics at the age of 24.

One thing I have never done is paid a millionaire I have known for 25 years 5K just for the right to pay full price for a car. I can see why you like Whitemoyer so much, that was such a great deal.

 

we all make mistakes, nobody is perfect

 

Heck last year I crashed a 5 axis DMU70 that cost almost a half a million bucks. Took 60K to repair it. Last thing I need is a reminder of something I crashed 20 years ago.
