The g/f's dad picked up a 63 t bird and asked me to change the intake/carb and distributor. I have never touched a FE so dont know what to charge him or whats involved/how long it should take??I know mine to pull is a 20 minute job.
I have a engine hoist so that isnt problem.
I dont like doing jobs with the possiblity of it getting shoved up my butt down the road, so i think its best i pass on this one.
he offered to pay me because the last guy that was supposd to do it backed out for some reason.I think he relaized its not the average 302 swap. If somebody offers to pay, im all for it.Got burned tooo many times for a freebie.I work better alone because i do things my way and being questioned when somebody knows less get a little frustrating.Definately when it's a girlfriend's dad that changes the equation. If you are charging him you must not be on too friendly of terms and you and the girlfriend aren't super serious. I think you're right not to do it in those circumstances.
If the two of you were doing it together over a few beers that would be totally different.
