Sometimes Ingenuity is a Bad Thing

MacGyver Gone Bad!

A friend sent me this photo the other day. He thought that this person really needed to have a look at our auto repair site. We're all for ingenuity when faced with a crisis -- race cars demand this on a regular basis, especially if one of your drivers thinks swapping paint includes the side barriers. But other times you need to tame and suppress your inner MacGyver. This was one of those times. Something tells me that those flashlights, even in "high beam" mode, aren't going to show you that deer crossing the road at night.

You can check out this and more funny pics at the new blog, ThereIFixedIt.com.

I like your blog here about auto repair. Stephen Dent just started a mobile auto repair service.

I think you will like it since it is so closely related to what you do, except that it’s mobile.

HOPEFULLY the owner did this only to show other drivers that the vehicle was indeed a car and not a motorcycle.

working in the auto repair biz, and being in a sluggish economy, we see a lot of jenky repairs by people trying to save money
