If you were closer to me, I'd gladly steal your business from them. I'm cheap, because I do it for fun, and only look to get paid what I would want to pay someone else.

I don't pay myself for coffee breaks and the like, just work performed, and 15% markup if I have to get the parts, for my run time and trouble.

Oddly enough, I have trouble building a client base no matter where I go... people would rather get ripped off knowingly than pay someone to do it in their driveway.

I love working on these import cars though... it's so easy.
