Wow. You wouldn't believe all the stupid things the painter did (on the other hand, maybe you would?).

This guy gets an A+ for his talents with painting, but he gets expelled for everything else! He CUT and **RIPPED** out a number of wires under the hood and just left them hanging! My brake switch wires (torn out; plugs destroyed) ... my electric fan wire (cut and hanging) ... wire for the temp sender (ripped out and hanging) ... I could go on and on!

It took me and a couple of friends hours to trace wires and figure out why I had no brake lights or turn signals, why my fan wasn't coming on or why my temp gauge wasn't working, why I had no headlights, etc., etc.

You know ... I wouldn't mind at all if he had told me, "I messed some things up; you'll have to fix this, that, and the other thing." But he just gave me the truck and left me to discover a ton of nightmares; leaving me on my own to trace wires and trouble shoot everything. Sigh ...

Anyway, I've got all the electrical nightmares fixed and the truck is running like a champ. I'm waiting for new park light sockets to come in the mail this week (he destroyed two sockets) and then I'll be able to drive my truck again.

I also need to wash it and get a good coat of wax on it. Then, as soon as there's a sunny day, I'll either take some pics or shoot a video and put it up for all to see!
