Well that's all very nice and good. But I have a question....

Let's say I have wheel centers that have a certain design on them...

And let's say this design has an up and or down side to it....

And let's say I brought this car to you at this new location....

Would I leave with all of the wheel centers in the same position? And if I ever stopped, would they then be in the same position again? Ever?

Just asking....not for any real reason, or past experience, or anything like that.

Congrats, Pete!

You won't be set up to do registration stickers, will you? GPMINI will need one when she gets back up here from Florida (she'll be 8 months late, then!)

See how a mechanic thinks? His cell phone translates to cel (check engine light). That's good:)

It it pronounced Gree-sees or Greez-zeez?

Best wishes for success and congrats!

Fantastic news, Pete & Audra!

When I first saw the thread title I thought it was for another off-topic / banter threads--didn't realize it was the real deal! May your wrenches spin freely and the cash register overflow...

Outstanding! Good for all of you!

It's not an easy task opening a new business in these times, or any time for that matter. But, if anything, Americans are entrepreneurs. With your skills, the Greasy Spoon is sure to be a success!

:eek:

Wait a minute, it's not a diner? With all those cars parked out front, I figured sure it was the local's favorite!

When are you going to open a shop in NH so I don't have to drive so darn far???

:D

One of the old-timers at work has two lifts buried in his backyard courtesy of his kids.
