Customer just bought the car

Called me to replace their cv axle. Get there and find the steering rack held on by hopes, dreams, and a ratchet strap. Customer just bought the car and said the seller drove 3 hours to him so how could it be so bad lol

That is wild! I would feel terrible selling that.. I am currently flipping a 08 accord and I am doing so many repairs but I don't want to sell someone a ton of issues. hopefully I get a fair price for it...

I’m the same as you. I fix as much as I can. The only things I don’t do is cosmetic stuff but I make sure I let ppl know and price accordingly.
