Top quality repair work! LOL - you must see this!

I thought everyone would get a kick out of this. A good friend of mine (a few of you met him at the last Houston C & C) works for AAA. He had to inspect an 04 CLK and these were the repairs he found!! The car was totaled and AAA paid the value with retained ownership and the owner had the repairs done... Sectioned frame with angle iron and misc pieces of metal, missing hardware.....amazing

Didn't even bother paint the bare metal. That looks like frankenstein work.

you'd be surprised how many 1/2 a$$ed auto shops there are that really do not know what they're doing. I had a buddy that was about to buy a super clean 92 MR2 which looked to be in great condition....but when we inspected the floor we found that the entire rear portion of the car was cut out and a new rear clip re-installed and welded up!!
