comeon guys it should be useful to all...it looks ok ??? any thing should be added here or changed incase anything goes wrong ???

 

Terms of contract breaches. BUT, contracts are a delicate thing, if you don't really trust the guy, for your protection, I would advise you to advise a lawyer and have them draft the contract.

 

I'm thinking if you don't trust the guy enough to have to make him sign a contract, then you need to find someone else.

 

its not a trust issue , but if u read the sticky about doing major work on the car it says to get everything in writing, coz a mechacnic is ur best friend until something goes wrong. !!!!

Hmm terms of condition breaches....i wont scare the guy with those

I think it looks good eh ?

 

if you can find a mechanic to sign that you are ns ome world i have never heard of.

 

All the sticky means is that you should have the mechanic write/print a work order with an estimate in it. Not that you should write your own contract. And I agree with dmx if you dont trust him enough to have him sign a contract then why trust him with your car?
