Butter knives are more dull. It'd take longer, making for better enjoyment; *and* have the added bonus of hurting a *lot* more. -----Original Message----- From: oofacts@earthlink.net [SMTP:oofacts@earthlink.net] Sent: Tuesday, 20 October 1998 5:30 To: type3@vwtype3.org Subject: [T3] KEITH PARK IS THE BEST!!!!!! Just in case none of you knew, Keith is just about one of the nicest people I have ever met. And the man knows so much about T3s it makes an novices head spin. Just wanted to extend my gratitude to the person who gave me a personal step by step into oiling my car and unfortunately but wisely pointed out that all the body work done on her was cosmetic and solved no problems, as it should have. Now I'm trying to choose the best knife for the guy who did the work.... I'm leaning toward serrated. Or Ginsu. If you EVER get ANYTHING done to your car by an outsider NO MATTER HOW MUCH HE SOUNDS LIKE HE KNOWS, watch the work step-by-step. I learned this too late, and now I need to stock up on another firewall/plenum combination for what I'm, sure will be the near future. I do not believe it. The guy also filled the wheel wells with squirt insulation foam in an act of wild misinterpretation of the words: I need you to put in stamped sheetmetal patches with water-tight welds. Unbelievable. And, of course, it's New York. So getting what I want without getting screwed at this point is tricky. ALSO: never have work done and assume it was done right because you have to help your girlfriend get ready for her grandfather's funeral and you need the car for that so you pay the guy to get the car and bolt off without looking very closely. Yes, I am a horse's ass. But a sensitive one. Oy vey. Wish me luck. Your the best Keith. I least I can sleep through the winter knowing 3/4s of the car is going to be OK (and oh yeah:Iforgot to do the interior behind the door panels!) -Mike Oily 72 Sqbk in Brooklyn New York where no one knows how to work on a T3. ------------------------------------------------------------------- Unsubscribe? mailto:type3-request@vwtype3.org, Subject: unsubscribe
