Default need work done in new england? look me up!

fellow dubbers,

i've been doing side work for a few years now, looking to make a full-time go of it now.

i'm a certified vw/audi technician, almost 10 years in the game, i can pretty much touch anything vw/audi/porsche and fix it.

some of the stuff i can do:

-basic maintenance
-timing belts
-suspension
-standalone tuning
-cis tuning/modifying (try finding someone besides tom who can still do that!)

some of the larger stuff i can do, but will take longer than a day:

-engines
-transmissions
-custom turbo setups
-sem installs

some non-mechanical stuff i can also do:

-stereo installs
-interior painting/swapping
-rewiring

i check my pm's not too often, best to email at mk4_2liter at hotmail dot com or call my cell at 860 834 two eight eight seven. my prices are reasonable, i have plenty of workspace, the right tools, and the experience needed to do the job right.

thanks!
-justin

Can you replace the front end bushings? I have been hearing the ubiquitous VW "clunk" for a while now.

FYI, don't anyone ever use "thecheat1206" or on this site he is known as "the cheat" for mechanical work or anything else. Sent him a bunch of parts, he never paid, hasn't returned phone calls in 6 months, very untrustworthy and just looking to screw people over. Just thought you guys should know here, making this post on several Audi forums as well to warn people.

Hmmm... Believe Justin, who is an extremely supportive member of this site and has been for years, or believe someone that searches for all the forums that he's on just to register and tell people that he's looking to screw them over? Yeah, okay.

I am sure Justin has been on here for years, helped a few people...search for me on any other site, I am on all the Audi sites...put yourself in my shoes, I thought Justin was a good kid too, I sent him a bunch of parts to fix his Audi, he never pays me, and now won't pick up my phone calls for the last 6 months, yeah, that's a kid I would want to touch my car too, riiiiight.

Ok.. assuming SpoolinS6 is correct.. what does not paying for some parts have to do with a persons ability/capacity to fix a car?

..Just saying...

.. there are always 3 or more sides to a story.

I am also more inclined to stick to the mountain of evidence in favor of The Cheat instead of subscribing to some newcomer with a personal vendetta.

I may be wrong..

Justin has been on on the org for years and many members here know him well. You're new and we have no idea who you are. Who to believe....hmmmm.

Longevity doesn't mean reliable or trusthworthy.

Justin should come in here and answer to this Spoonlin person. Set the record straight, you know?

There's no apostrophe before an 's' when you're talking about the plural version of a word. "I took some neat photo's!" is NOT correct.

we will leave this matter as a misunderstanding between two parties and both are actively working towards a resolution.
