Turbo Regals that have been left to die...
« on: December 19 2010, 10:22:47 PM »
Had to make a run to rescue my friend's T-Type from a "shop" up north (can you guess which one?).  Here are some pics of Turbo Regals crying out for help...

The first GN in this pic had some really nice smoked rear tail light lenses and side markers.  But the interior was suffering from being out in the sun, along with it's neighbors.

I was told that they were all customer's cars...though they looked like they had been sitting there for a long time.

he had my friends car for almost 2 years putting a fast system in. kept dodging calls, bullshitting, and they actually stole some of his interior pieces while it was there. and told him it wasnt on the car when they got it. little stuff like a console lid and interior screws just walked off...

Sounds similar to what my friend went through with his car.

I wish I could adopt them all, but I've already got two that aren't getting fixed.

What shop is this?  If its something thats best left unposted please PM me with the shop's name.  You'd be surprised how many folks ask me what shops to bring their cars.....like I've been around here for very long or something.

I'm more impressed that many can sit in one spot and not be stolen.   People Leave them in their driveway and they get jacked.   There is a whole yard full of them.
