Thanks for saying what I couldn't. I feel the same way about this problem. I'm looking for another garage in my area with a honest mechanic. I know that will be hard to find :) Just want to get it up off the floor to have a good look around the engine again. It's time.

First I would like to say HI to everyone here on this site. I mostly post on Lincolns online forum. Question: Paint Job. What should I be looking at as far as total cost on a quality paint job on this car. I have several dings on the doors from people hitting my car when they open there...
