The shop behind me does minor bodywork and paint touch-ups for dealerships on their trade ins to prep them for resale. Today I traded a tuneup on one of the guy's 4Runner in exchange for touching up all my rock chips and a couple scratches along with a quick buff out. It was a good trade 8) .

Long live the barter system!!!
 
I love to trade when I can. He bought the parts and it only took me 30-40 minutes so I'd call it a win. We do a lot of trading in the complex I work in. Our shop is general auto repair, another is an alignment shop, and the body/detail guys. My boss traded a new roof on his house for some fleet work last year.
 
Got my junkyard "rust free" fender wheel well support braces sanded down an primed today,and fixed the broken out corners on my headliner,I plan to recover it using headliner material from surplus city,Iv done that before an it turn out really nice

Put a battery in my 87 Turbo Regal and moved from the cold side of the pole shed to the heated side. Jacked up the front to replace the inner, outer tie rods, upper, lower ball joints, upper, lower control arm bushings and cut a half to full coil from the front springs to lower the front about and inch.
 
Changed my master cylinder cuz my breaks went out on me (luckily I was parking, smh) but that wasn't it, so now gonna change the brake booster and go from there. Oh yeah, and bought another Bu! :mrgreen:

Wasn't today, but the last thing done was Friday, had the C5 wheels and new tires mounted up, and installed them on the 87.

I am hoping the new front springs settle after it's able to be driven. Rear springs are stock.
