My Mechanic

Here is a shot of my great mechanic. I always tell Chris that I'm glad I married a mechanic. He takes good car of our cars until he gets tired of them and wants to sell them! This is the junker we bought last May when we couldn't stomach buying gas for his truck. Lucky us!! It took Chris a month to figure out the wiring problem that wouldn't let it pass emissions. Last week Chris installed it's third alternator (rebuilt and thank goodness it has a lifetime warranty), ball joints, boots and had it aligned at Val's - his favorite place. Chris affectionately calls his car "flash" because it's weak alternator has been making the lights dim off an on all summer. We also could have called it creak or squeak because of the suspension problems. He says he has a soft spot for this old car and will fix anything but a transmission. I am crossing my fingers that this will fix it for a while.
