Once again in Kamloops, the total hick cowboy brought in a '50 chevy, opened the door, chew split and sunflower seeds 1 inch thick...it stunk. I told at him, said "when you clean out you piggy truck, I help you out". He left came back an hour later, with a six pack...said "sorry, I wouldn't want to crawl around in it either".

Timing is everything, you guys should see what just showed up for a Pioneer lcd screen install. Customers name is Wally from PG, drives a yellow Prelude. (in case Lethal knows the car - my good friend Constable Robertson does). One look inside showed water, broken everything, wiring all over the map. And the dash panel is broken. So you need a new dash panel Wally and then we are going to carve it up and glass an extension into place so that you can actually use the screen in this car. I almost do not want to work on this car.

With the plastic lund hood scoops and big *** wing on the back. Looks like a shopping cart from the back?

Had a 1948 Pontiac Silverstreak show up this summer in suprisingly good condition, although not from restoration. I think the car had just sat for years and years... Anyways, the owner was kind enough to inform us that he'd just gotten out of prison and was performing (singing) at local bars around town to make some money. This dude was real shady, and as each minute passed we wanted less and less to have to help him with his relic of a car.
Well first and foremost he wanted a HU and speakers installed into this thing. No go... battery is only 6V. We spent about 15 minutes trying to explain to this guy why a 6V battery would not power a HU. At this point we're getting all excited because it's looking more and more like we're not going to be able to help him. Nope... He says ok, I'll go to crappy tire and buy a 12V battery. Great... So after he manages to get this piece of **** started, off he goes to CT (or wherever) in a cloud of smoke. As he left the engine backfired and emitted this deafening clap, and I think a lot of customers thought a gunshot had went off. So anyways, he came back about 3 hours later with the battery, and to my utter disbelief he starts asking about remote starters. I'm like buddy... Let me count the ways as to why we CANNOT install one of those...
Yeah, so you know those kinds of installs where you end up not caring how much you're getting paid, because payment ends up being not having to deal with a certain customer and his certain piece of a$$ vehicle.

There needs to be a permanent photo log on this site of this stuff. The "What You Shouldn't Do" section.
Anyways, that poo and puke stuff is bastardly awful. Nothing gross like that but how about a rookie that drill a ground tap into a $85,000 Mercedes gas tank and then dropped a piece of crap on the paint on the rear quarter and fak'ed up the paint. Oh, the lov was around that day.

old 83 toyota tercel came in for a hu install
went to pull the vehicle inside, nasty rank discusting putrid horrific smell eminating from inside the car.
2-3 soiled diapers must have been there awile, because the lady only had one kid with her.
told her i couldnt work on her car till it was cleaned.

homer disaster!!!!1
had an installed that used to work for me years ago install a car starter in a neon.
car starter worked great cust came in to satisfy the bill. after the paperwork was done. he was pulling the vehicle out while i was talking to the cust in the front heard a big crunch followed by f...ck!!!! went to the back
he left the back door of the neon open while backing the car out.
try explaining to your cust on a sat after she paid her bill you have to drive her home!!!
