I am not opening the shop anytime soon. I will not be in the area until this time next year. And the money is not an issue, as I have financial backing. Not sure where the shop is going to be located, as I have not scoped out the area yet.
I specialize in rotary work. As well as general mechanics. Money is out there, its figuring out how to get it from your pocket, into mine.
I have no problems with someone learning to be a mechanic, but there are times when you just do not have the ability to do it yourself sometimes. I have seen more cars come to me after someone has tinkered with it, than those that just want something done. And I understand the fear of leaving your car somewhere that you are not sure of. But once you guys meet me, you will see I am not one of those guys.
20 yrs in the military seems to fill you with a lot of integrity, honor, and respect.
But this thread is more about what you need in shops that you do not have now. I am not there to see it for myself, so I have to use you folks as my eyes and ears so I am somewhat prepared when I do open the doors.
