Hey Streets..$150.00 ?...You are right its been a loooooooooooooooooog time alright....I recently took a torqueflite 904 to my friendly "Prima Donna transmission repair shop"...Their motto "We will screw U 4 sure and you will like it"....The guy there gave me a song and dance about how Amerucan made trannys are poorly made and hard to overhaul...I'm standing there thinking to myself " I wonder if this guy owns a Merc OB..I hope so so I can give the same song and dance about those AWFUL American made things "...He gave me a quote of between $500.00 and ten thou or so depending on how much the crap he snorts up his nose costs that week...OK OK It was about $500.00 if I brought it in...Prima Donna auto repair is next door...They quoted a friend $700.00 to flush the cooling system in his Buick...I told the service rep there once that it sure is a good thing someone near by doesn't sell cast iron pie tins...Then they could get rich by selling them so folks could stuff them down the back of their pants and safely come into your place..There is an honest place further down the By way...Al's Transmission Repair"...Only thing wrong is he is backed up for weeks..Can't beat a place with a name like that...Al.....
I saw last night on fb about John. The world sure lost a great one. I'm going to miss his humor, advice, and perspective from another portion of the world. Rest in Peace Johnboy.
