$337.56 to bleed brakes
I'd like to recommend Bill Kolb Jr. Ford in Blauvelt (Rockland County) NY to anyone looking for such reasonable rates as this for service on their Cobras. Included in this bargain is a $26.53 Bleeder valve (broken during the service.) The best part of the deal was that I was quoted $139 before I brought the car in...and when I questioned them as to why the bill was 2.4X the quoted price (they didn't call to tell me there were additional charges)...I was told...unless I paid up..IMMEDIATELY...they would hold my car. The service manager won't return my calls to discuss either.
When I checked with 4 other SVT dealers I was quoted anywhere from $45 to $170...so you can see Bill Kolb is definately Number 1 in (bovine) service.
I'd also like to give a shout-out to ProSpeed Motorsports for their prompt service. I ordered a set of Brembo Calipers & Rotors which were the last set "on the shelf". 3 months later....after numerous
unanswered e-mails & telephone mesages (including cancellation) a box arrives unannounced (refused, Wilwood parts already bought). The best part...he ran the $1650 charge through my card...the day I placed the order....& then has the cajones to tell me he used the money to pay for the parts (which he had said he had on the shelf.) He is attempting to keep the money from my card.
This project has been a real experience
