Also, if and when you bitch about the shitty job he did, he doesn't have to make it right like he would have to with a "paying" customer.

If you're simply looking for a mechanic and want to pay the regular rate for the repairs, please disregard my post.

What's considered minor?
Area wise ehhh maybe but depending on the severity bundy has a valid point. The multiple post make it seem more than minor/simple, which with parts and labor could tip the scales on good,bad or fair deal.

Pm'd you

For instance, if her car's repairs, etc require $1K in total parts, labor (and he can facilitate said work without bumping "paid customers" from his garage) she (and any other provider for that matter) could put together a "bundled plan" (obviously it doesn't have to come down to just one f*ck, right...)

If her regular hrly rate is $$5 (taken from some prior reviews) the math is easy......4 sessions over X-period of time. She could also sweeten the pot by adding a 5th session if he throws in a tune up or a bumper-to-bumper detailing. Or...if we want to be clever about it...he gives her car a fluid flush (ie: coolant, transmission, oil, power steering, etc)....and she in turn, cleans out his fluids....

All in all, both parties have a service the other one wants.....sounds pretty cut-n-dried to me.

So what is the issue with your car.?

Why barter if I could just take my car to a real shop and mechanic? I don't get it. Bartering makes things complicated. It's easier if everyone just pay the fee for services for everything. No one owes anyone anything

^ your cash stays with you and you get to give your time (the time when you were doing nothing anyways) for a service that you have had to pay for. Works.

Ok... how about auto painters? I'll pay for supplies and barter for labor, give me a good deal I'll pay cash, all or part.

I want a real good paint job for a vintage, collectible car.

I'm also interested in upholstery.

If you can't barter but can refer me to a good shop, I'd appreciate that as well.

Not trying to hijack the thread, just wanted to ask but really didn't want to start a thread... saw an opportunity where car guys would be looking...Thanks

Oh boy painting... That's a whole new can of worms, especially on a vintage car. Both parties better make sure nothing's left to question before starting that process.

Yes, to be honest, I'd probably prefer if someone could refer me to a shop where I can get a good deal and pay for it myself... The one shop I went to quoted me $4000.00. I'd really like to get the car painted but can't afford that.
