When our shop air compressor died, the boys jumped into action. Using battery powered air we added air to our lifts to release the locks and got the cars down. You can’t legally run a shop in California without filling up the tires of every customer. The crew brought in every battery powered tire inflators they had, we borrowed a back up from a neighboring shop. We bought a mobile compressor to make do but not having commercial grade air was quite the challenge for all of us. When Tim from Napa came through and delivered our new compressor yesterday it really was a Xmas miracle for all of us. Go broke, get rich. Break stuff and learn how to fix it.

Help people.

Even when you install a new engine crated that comes with a three year warranty, you really hope the builders didn’t miss a step. Having to pull a motor out again because of a manufacture defect will break your heart. Not up in here car demons. The whole crew always says a prayer prior to the first start. This 5.4 purred like a kitten. On to the next.
