I have seen this car and it is exactly what he said it is . I saw the car when
he got it and the damage was just as he described.

This is also true I have been using this man since 1989. He is the only one
that touches my cars.  Master mechanic is an absolute UNDERSTATEMENT.  If only
he would join the list he would represent an immense resource.  I would go as
far as to personally vouch for this man.   I know this may be a contradictory
statement But, He is a Honest Mechanic who has saved me thousands$$$$ over the
years.

Just my$.02 worth.. well maybe more than .$02
