We all work hard. We all complain. But usually its about the cost of $2,000 cylinder heads, $900 cam kits, radiators that overheat and so on.

(don't like spending money)
And I disagree. I think you DO mind spending money or this thread would never have been started.
You seem encourage able, so I will play.
First off, you don’t know me and I don’t know you yet you come on MY thread and accuse ME of bitching when that was clearly YOUR interpretation of what you read.
Second, you’re not my father so please don’t tell me when I can and cannot bitch about anything!
Third, I may own a $30,000 Corvette and it’s parked next to a $60,000 Mercedes. Unlike yourself, I work on my own cars so I don’t have to “bitch” about how much I spent for a starter installed and think fellow forum members will feel sorry for you.
Fourth, if you don’t like what you read on here I would simply request that you just move to the next thread because we don’t post information just to have bullies like you get all *** hurt and unload on the OP
Lastly, if you wish to remain the PIA that you seem to be, you should change your forum name to Headupass as this seems to fit your personality.
Now, Admins you may close this thread if you wish or delete it for all I care but remember, this clown struck first and even when corrected by another forum member he still persisted enough to get his *** chewed by me. Nuff said

First of all. I do all my own work on the C3 except A/C and rear axle. So there you go again falsely accusing members with false claims.
Second. When you post a thread you are open to all responses. My number 13 post did not mention nor refer to you, in general.
Third. If you don't like responses from several, then YOU should move on.

If I came on too strong, sorry. I was upset over my legit $750 truck repair. So I didn't want to read a complaint of $11.

But,
whatever ledger. Whatever.

Dude,
You don’t take your personal problems like your expenses and lash out at other members just because you sit behind a keyboard and face no consequences for what you say. So you paid $750, that’s still no reason to go strong on someone you don’t even know. If I don’t like what I see people say I move on but this thread was started by me and you just think you can come along and put people on blast. I would think you are young because that’s adolescent if you ask me followed by the whatever comment. Don’t go away mad, just go away.

Why go to a dealer or a locksmith. My local Ace Hardware has blanks for old cars and they cut a few for me a while ago. I got two sets for less than $10. YMMV

That’s what I read from another forum member. Wished I knew that when I was looking. Oh well, live and learn right?
