    Remember the sign that said.... " I reserve the right to refuse service to anyone" every garage should have one in bold print....rock on sir Pat.

    I’ll never let anyone else touch my classic truck other than the mechanic I’ve been going to for the last 6 years. He knows the truck inside and out better than I do. ALWAYS have a good relationship with your mechanic. He’s worked in my other vehicles except my BMW. I take that to the dealership.

    I daily drive my classic and one thing Ive learned is its always best to have one place where I get all my advice and help with projects and service if I can't do it myself. There are a lot of people out there that have their own ways of doing things that may or may not work and sure as hell don't work if you piecemeal it together.

    I completely understand your frustration here. Especially the part where apparently his brother has 40 years of experience in cars all of a sudden. You’re right. Why is the car at your shop if this guy’s brother is so knowledgeable?

    I feel your pain, I was a mechanic for 35 years, I quit 2 years ago, I've still got the garage and all the equipment, I just can't listen to them anymore, they expensive rubbish and complain to me how much it costs to maintain and repair, when you try telling them they don't listen, it's their loss not mine.

    Mixing fun/hobbies/friends and business almost always ends up leaving a bad taste in your mouth eventually. You end up paying for their hobby.
    (different story if he/ they, would have walked in and said, I /we fkd up door hardware, gonna need your help. Deceit ,is a bit of a slap in the face. takes a little while to get over.

    If it weren’t for stupidity mechanics would have a lot less work. As long as you’re taking his money every time you fix someone else’s mistakes let him do what he wants with his own car. If you’re re doing the work for free then the problem isn’t him.

    Hey Pat. I don't blame you for being Pissed. That is a sign of disrespect towards you and your shop.
    Don't mess with something that is running the way it is supposed to work. This guy is a complete idiot for sure.

    A person can have the car worked on by whoever they want and you are more than welcome to refuse service. I don't understand the problem other than him pretending that you don't know your stuff. Other than that, charge enough to make it worth your time and don't worry about it because you're getting paid.

    Everybody wants something for free. Unrelated but I had a guy threaten to sue me for putting his business sign on the corner of the building ( precisely where he asked me to) which normally would not have been a problem but we got a freak storm and 95 mile an hour winds coming ogg the building tore it out.

    Yikes ! what a sh!t show. The door situation alone warrants actual work time in billing, no flat rate. Smartest thing you can do is get paid for your work and wish them well in future endeavors. We feel it brother, worked flat rate for years, tough to get a full weeks pay sometimes, even when working your butt off.
