    Default Little different

    Little different than the normal action at a2z. We’ve done several of these frame swaps for insurance companies. I took some photos today of the current one.

    My Bride ran over a stump in tot’s yard. I took her car to Bernie down at Doug’s and he fired up a torch, straightened all the mangled shit and didn’t charge me a dime. You want I should send him down there to fix that shit?

    Oh, he didn’t take nothing off neither. 5 minutes on the lift and he was done.

    I’ve been rear ended twice this year. Jan 6 and feb 18. I told Chevy body shop to check my Reese hitch. That crap has got to be compromised at this point. What you think kevin? Repaired from the first on February 14 and hit again on 17th. Damnit I can’t catch a break in 2020

    I’d have it checked. The hitch is what caused this frame to buckle.

    Similar to taking an X-ray, I'd imagine. Just not nearly as expensive...

    Torch, flat iron, can of black paint, and a 2 pound hammer would have easily straightened that metal out.

    Insurance doesn’t do that. They pay me 56 hours to replace the frame. I wish I had two a week to do.
