Question GA peeps

Anyone here in GA willing to take a 27 female under their wings and show her how to do some basic engine stuff and mod installation....

My dad started teaching me but he passed away when I was 16 so I know everything about mustangs and what i want in my car and on my car but lack the ability and knowledge to do the installs...

And when a shop sees a nice lil blonde girl driving up in a 5.0 they think ohhh she knows nothing her daddy or b/f got her this car

I'm in Alpharetta and generally work on my own car and friends' Mustangs pretty regularly. Actually this is the first weekend in a month I haven't turned a wrench on a car. Last weekend, I installed an alternator on a buddy's '07 GT. The weekend before that was axle-backs on an '11 GT. The one before that was an adjustable Panhard bar on another GT. What do you need done? I'm not fast, but my prices can't be beaten. All I charge usually is good conversation and ask that you hand me whatever wrench or socket I need if I'm under the car. If you want to take me up on my offer, I'd prefer if we worked on your car when my wife is at home or if you brought a male friend.

Gears is not a driveway job I'd do. I paid to have them installed in my '11. I can give you my mechanic's contact info who did mine if you like. I still want to see your car regardless.

Yeah, Gears are best done on a lift, they have to be shimed and measured with a Mic to make sure they are in there right, and the Pinion gear has be be set in so far and torqued... it would be a ***** to do on a driveway..
