Please do, As I don't have the utmost faith in your word right now.(sound familiar?)

It's not my job to confirm it's there. It is there job to tell me that "hey, We don't have it right now, We'll have to order it". Instead, I called them twice about it and was told it was on order and would arrive soon and the third time I called was when I was told they couldn't get it for a long time and that I could get a different brand a little sooner but for 30 more bucks. Again, Not my fault.

I drive more than 45 miles each way to work every day on a very closely watched stretch of very rural road and I can't afford to get picked up every week for speeding. You knew before doing the work that this needed to be able to be daily driven, year round.

Yes, Milemarkers and the clock in your SVX. It isn't hard to watch a clock as a milemarker goes by to tell you are doing a mile a minute.

And how exactly do you get the upper radiator hose to rub on the power steering hose??
I don't think I've ever seen an SVX with no clearance between the 2 that wasn't wrecked.

People like me keep people like you in business, so I don't see how it's in your best interest to try to "show us up" by trying to make us look stupid. I never claimed to be a mechanic. Heck, that could be the a/c condenser in there and I'd still never know.

So your telling me you have model cars and memorabilia EVERYWHERE, But no NOTHING about them????

Like I said, I did something in place of the cooler that we agreed on and I know I did, I just don't recall what. I will refund the gas, But nothing else.

I did NOT start this thread to air my issues with you or the work you did (and didn't do) on my car. I simply needed reliable help getting the car going again, and anyone who's going to offer advice is going to have to know what work was done. I couldn't simply ask you privately for help with all this because honestly, I don't have the utmost faith in your work at the moment.

You should watch how you word things then, Because the first 2 or 3 posts from you all make remarks towards me as if your car breaking down is all my fault or something and I don't appreciate it, Especially with all I've dealt with lately from Benebob and so on. Bad timing you could say.
