The goal should be to spend the exact amount as you would pay to have someone do it, but get a bunch of new parts and tools out of it. My math says you've got $700 to play with.

That would be the goal if insurance were paying for it

Coming out of my pocket, I'd rather save the money for now. If the money weren't an issue, I would just pay Colvin to do the work. I don't have a problem buying tools when I need them. I'm running out of room in the garage anyway - I have no idea where I'm going put that transmission jack as it is

Send down to H-Town. I'm sure we could "store" it for you

My buddy across town would gladly use it all the time store it for me and keep it local. However, if any of you needs it after I complete my work, I'd be happy to loan it for an indeterminate amount of time (or just sell it to get a few bucks back).
