About the work

A closer look.

Before you drive an hour to see a car, let me read the ad. I'm a mechanic. I've spent my life in a repair bay watching people buy the wrong car for the same reasons: a price that looks good until the first repair, a detail the seller left out of the photos, a test drive that only shows the car on its best afternoon. What you get: - The three things that actually decide it: what the ad is hiding, what it costs to make right, and whether to walk. - The number I'd pay, not the number they're asking. - The questions to ask and what to check before money changes hands. - The one thing I'd get on a lift before anything else. Send me the listing link, the asking price and where the car is. I read it cold, no upsell. If what you send isn't enough to judge honestly, I'll tell you that first and you don't pay. If the car is genuinely good, I'll say so. Delivered within 24 hours. One revision included.
