wow very nice find. See if you can get the other update they are going to show.

I use a mechanic thats my Uncles Best friend. I know he doesn't stiff me becuase to change a timing belt, install underdrive pulley set, new belts, transmission fluid flush, and new water pump and install for $630. Includes labor. He is a fanstatic mechanic and its hard to find many that 1 are trust worthy and 2 dont price you up the arse.
