Topic: repairs in budgeting.
alright I got a crew put together and a possible car (i refuse to call it a truck) and we're hyped for high planes next year.
the victim in question is an y2k ford ranger with the 2.3l I4, The title says 800 bucks, however it was rear ended and has essentially been the families loaner car for the last 2 years. Now there is a slightly less butt turrible car taking that responsibility.
anyway it either needs the frame stretched or a new tube frame aft of the cab built (serious consideration among the crew) and an alignment at minimum.
I know the safety equipment, and breaks are "free" but what about collision work and alignments?
we're either starting the cut and weld soon, or looking for a new victim. any insights?
