I know that RTR's have helped sales tremendously in the past years, as with over the past 10 years, the influx has increased ten fold. But all I am trying to say is that a part that takes 4 screws to change, someone was willing to pay $30 plus parts to have it changed. I know it is good for business as I stated in my earlier post, but that doesn't mean I think it is right.
Working on your own real car is a little different I think. I don't consider my real car as a hobby or sport, and if I did, I would be more than happy to work on it. It was just kind of a shock to hear that from the owner that he has a lot of cars with simple things wrong with them just sitting in the back waiting to be fixed.
I guess most of us on here are part of a dying breed.
