I almost missed it while I was inspecting under the vehicle. As I slid out from under the car, I spotted those zip ties and gave it another look. Odd, someone left their screw driver here!
Oh wait...
Check out this red neck fix! This guy deserves a MacGuiver award of some kind. The motor mount is ripped to shreds. In an effort to stop the shaking and banging, he wedged this screw driver in here. The handle actually fits into the space between that random frame bolt and the motor mount support on the engine. So as the engine bangs around, it does not hit metal on metal and make noise.. instead it bounces on screw driver handle. The zip tie holds the whole thing in place.
I am really impressed. Not necessarily in a good way or with our car... but the dude with the red obsession was certainly creative. I have to give him credit there.
WOW...
We may have overpaid at $500. I find it necessary to now mention that as we went into his house to sign the title, he picked up two 12" or longer steak knives below his tennis shoes on the front porch. Nervous you ask, nah. This was an upstanding citizen. In hindsight, I should have had Joe follow him in first.
