Thread: Up date on Maroon 32 5 Winder

Tweet

Well all does not go as planned. Got ready to deliver the 32 5 window 2 weeks ago. Fired it up and let it warm up while I hooked up the trailer to load it. Came back into the shop to find a puddle of water under the left tail pipe. Shut it down, checked the oil and had a "Milk Shake".
Caled the new owner and explained the situation. Tell him I'm gonna put a new GM crate bullit in it @ N/C but give me 2 weeks. He says "No Problem"
So spent last weekend swappin it out.
Tinkered on it this week .
Loaded up this am and delivered it 1/2 way to him.
Now mind you, he has already paid for this car and only seen pics. I get to the 1/2 point about 15 minutes B4 him.
Unload and wipe it down.
He pulls up, lockin his brakes in the gravel, jumps out and is almost doin double back flips.
I say "what ya think? all he can say is "Frickin beautiful" about 20 times. I help him load on his trailer and get ready to go and he say's "Here I got a new motor and I'm payin for it" Hands me an envelope and says don't open it until yer down the road.
Off I go and 10 miles later I open it and it's enuf to buy 3 motors.
Got anutter happy customer

Not 2 shabby startin with this 7 1/2 weeks ago

Don, when you do the right thing (new crate motor), sometimes it comes back in spades. Beautiful car, and nice choice on the wheels. Everything is just right - but that's the way you always do it.

Thanx for the kudos Jack

A little honesty goes a long way. You kno a customer is happy when something like that happens
