when a shop claims to specialize in hondas and theyre producing this kind of wiring work they just need to give up. of course this car didnt even run, it was dropped off on a flat bed...

not sure what they were doing/thinking but this is a '90-1 Dx crx with a multi port motor/pretty straight forward wiring mod...

poor guy that owns it is @ 40 or so, nice guy an its a nice car. he claims he paid for the swap & wiring @ a year and a half ago but was never done. ill update the motor mount mess when i get this wiring back together properly, then its on to the suspension, the ebay shifter was even put in backwards. more shitty phone pics to come.

I've tripped and fallen into those jobs before. If times are slow, or the customer understands the three ways a job is done they aren't too bad and can be profitable.

Oh, for those in the cheap seats there are three ways a auto repair, mod, build can go.

"Done Good, Done Fast, Done Cheap."

But you only get to pick two of the choices....

Maybe you haven't found the shop that fits your needs/expectations then. I never have a problem explaining it to customers, and have never had a problem with the shops I sublet work to

Oh man Nate! I'm sorry for you, those spagetti noodles look awful! I can completely relate, the rats nest under the coronet was that bad too! It almost makes you wonder how it doesn't start a fire ( Wait a moment... mine did!)

Thanks.

I have to credit being in a small town all my life. Your tongue gets worn down biting it when people make you want to give them a full ass chewing. Too much gossip and stories in a small town. Everyone knows everyone and knows what they are up too, who they are fucking, who is the drunks, the druggies, the opinion makers, whose wife is getting action on the side from the UPS guy. Who is broke, rich, beats his kids, helps those in need, churchies, atheist, Democrat, Republican, Crazy, All of it.

I'll go full asshole when the time justifies it, it normally is a epic one. But for the most part just smile and keep it to myself or amongst my Buds. Then disappear on the weekends to the family Compound and drink, raise hell, shoot up shit, watch a camp fire and no one can find me.
