Default Ok, you all like CPT....but...

I love this guy. I was at UPS tonight in Franklin Park, picking up some tires. It was 8pm when I loaded them up in a car. I'm leaving to go home and thinking, I wonder if Al is at his shop, perhaps working on his S4?? So, I call the shop number and you guessed it, he answers. I ask him if I can bring the tires there right away since he'll be mounting them on wheels anyways and you know his answer, "No problem."

I get there in 5-10 minutes and expecting to see his S4 in pieces but no, Al and another guy are welding Hoops' cage! It is looking real good btw.
He even had few minutes to chat with me about my plans with my car.

I usually don't make shameless plugs and all but this time I had to compliment him. Small things people do for others sometimes mean a lot more. Thanks Al.

Default I must have just missed you.

I think I left around 7:30, but I'm not entirely sure.<ul><li><a href="https://forums.audiworld.com/lrqc/msgs/101941.phtml">https://forums.audiworld.com/lrqc/msgs/101941.phtml</a></li></ul>

Default If I had to write about all the situations where Al went beyond the call of duty...

...I'd have a decent sized book on my hand. The guy tells it how it is but at the same time is really one of the best shops I've ever had to deal with - and I've dealt with a LOT of them.

Default man...

I just heard that now. My stupid phone...Jeremy left me a message too I didn't know....it never showed on my screen I have a VM. To answer your question...I would go with Greyhound...pack them together upside down in one big box. Or, buble wrap and then shrink wrap them tight and ship as that....not sure what else.

Default That's because you get a different car every month. :-)

But as Marcus said, there's nobody better than Al. :-) He's a standup guy.
