hey Najem, you moved your shop & i was away oct -nov '13!  thx for fwd'ng you mew address!  TO ALL WHO READ THIS:  Najem is one of mamy good mechanics i associate with, great shop!  he is in Hamilton, Ontario & you can reach him at 905-928-8767, thx,
-andy.   (Andy, the smartest, best, kindest, nicest guy EVER!  haha!   i hope all who know me enjoy this siily website, it's nothing if not entertaining!!  :)

hi andy I have been calling you a lot but no answer????

i wish to apologize to you, after re-reading my response to your evaluations it seems i have succumbed to the same hypocracy that i accuse you of.  i've never met u and know nothing about you.  Obviously your buttons got pushed judging by your responses.  i'm actually embarrased that i relished attacking you personally.

gunnar:  the next time u r at your "church", remember to tell the Lord about this website and your judgement of myself, posted here anonymously & unverified.  u have never met me, never done any business with me and know nothing about me (and neither has any of the other bogus webjerks herein incl the initiator "larry f"- his comments clearly state he's never met me), yet you feel u can post whatever defamatory slanderous crap you wish.  how Christian of u (it)!   it's quite clear to anyone reading this that u r a master of online provocation and have plenty of time sitting at your computer in your soiled gotchees and fetid cloud of acrid b.o. to create your fantasy "walter mitty" personna.  i feel no anger for you any more, only pity.  Many of my friends have read all this and are quite entertained - i caution them that your neurosis is no laughing matter, your multiple aliases are quite probably multiple personalities & u may b unaware of your manifold psychosis.  i was going to deny u any further acknowledgment but not before i "do the right thing" and report you to the RCMP, FBI and whoever else can hopefully put a stop to you & get u the help u need b4 you get hurt, hurt yourself or someone else.

Hi boiler room boy! Slow money day? Well, there is cricket on tv today. I'm sure that India's national channel will be playing it. Watch it. You've got time on your hands. Have a nice day.

I'm quite impressed with your verbal skills there, you miserable clown. Not bad for a poorly educated, proven failure.
Now let's go through your post, shall we? My 'phone number? Why on earth would you think anyone would post their 'phone number? Frauds, like you, the world over would then have it. I hunt frauds as a hobby, I'm busy enough already.
My name? Fake? Well, I'm sorry if you don't like it. But Gunnar is the name I was born with and I'm keeping it. It may not be a common name, but I'm named after my grandfather..and his grandfather. Tradition is strongly held in people of Swedish heritage. So is honesty, morality and integrity. But you wouldn't understand those concepts would you?
Operator of this site? Hardly! I'm just one of many who feel a responsibility to our fellow man, to protect them from the scum out there who think it's their right to prey off others. Scum like you.
Honest days work? I'm semi-retired, but when I'm working my uniform consists of cut-offs, work boots, a tool belt, a watch and sometimes a hat. And that's usually all. If it's too cold for that, I just delegate my tasks for the day to one of the approximately 100 people that I employ. People who are all happily employed, hard working and very well paid. Unlike you.
You're retired comfortably now are you? I wasn't aware that's what they're calling being unable to find a job because you're too crooked to employ now. Congratulations, I hope you enjoy that "retirement"!
Psychological Analysis? Well, there is a bright side! Your therapist has at least taught you some new words..if nothing else. You're evidently trying to emulate your doctor too. But your amateur attempt at diagnosis is a classic example of a deluded personality. In other words, you missed it..badly. My "deep fiancial crises" consists of a credit score of over 800 and a personal net worth in excess of $20 million dollars USD. I don't gamble, attend church weekly and some of the companions in my "misery" are my 5 children and my wife. Two of my kids have Masters degrees, one has his Doctorate, one is still pusuing her studies and my youngest is only 5 yrs. old. I married my wife after the death of my first wife, who was killed in a skiing accident. She's the daughter of one of the finest friends I've ever had. The man died 6 days after blessing our marriage and giving away his daughter. She may be half my age but we've known each other all her life and love each other with our entire souls. I'll take my "misery" and my "borderline personality disorder" over yours anyday.
Your right about one thing though. Your 'phone number is here for all to see. And we all know why.  
And yes, thanks for the laughs. Keep 'em coming. Du har varde. Du far oss att skratta som helvete!
Skeff Ett Liv!
Gunnar

i hate to admit i kind of enjoy the "chess game", sorry you are are getting spanked :D - your intellect is no match for mine, and of course, niether is your morality!

hey  goofner, if YOU were in any way "ethical, moral or of integrity" you would post your real phone number, but you won't because you are a cowardly anonymous maggot hiding behind your fake name. you are so ridiculously full of S H I T that your verbal diahrea clearly reveals that you are obviously the operator of this site.  you are clearly unable to do an honest day's work like i have done all my life and thats why i'm retired comfortably  but you have to keep your poisonous, slanderous, defamatory and unverified web feces going. Psychological analysis of goofner's fecal outbursts reveals "his" (it's) character flaws:  deep financial crises brought on by avarice, self centered bad living, gambling, fraud, total disrespect for others and defiance of "natural order".  you (it) are clearly a "borderline personality disorder" - you fester in misery, create misery and relish exacting misery on others.  My phone number is here for all to see and it's not about to be changed, anyone can ph 4unbiased advice 24/7.  post your phone# scaredicat, no worry, i won't call!   thx 4 the lafs!

"badge" & "casa" are both respected members of this site. Just like this site, they've helped innumerable people by exposing frauds, scammers and questionable business men. The Losers and Users that are exposed are never happy about it.
FACT: The Losers and Users that have had their practices hung out to dry often come on here with ridiculous claims, accusations and lies. You are a case in point. You were exposed for what you are. You'll never be in "casa" or "badges" league. They're here to help, you're here to try to recover your non-existent honor. You know it. We know it. And now, thanks to your post, everyone who reads this thread will know it.
True success requires morals, ethics and integrity. Traits which you have obviously lost, or never had in the first place. So walk it off, Pal. You're not cut out for the real business world. You've proven that. Just accept your fate. All you'll ever be is an employee. And your employer had better be watching your every move.
Skeff Ett Liv! "Maggot"!
Gunnar

"badge" & "casa" are obvious "shills" for this steaming pile of a website. FACT: anyone who operates a website allowing anonymous losers to post anything about anyone regardless of how malicious and false is a bottom feeding maggot.

I noticed that you used the phrase "when I was still working". That comes as no surprise to me. Nor will it be surprising to anyone reading this thread. Your profane and rubbish filled post has now made it crystal clear that no one in their right mind would want to have any dealings with you.
Fake posts are detected and deleted for a reason. That reason, in this case, being you. People like casa, badge and myself have no relationship with 800notes. We're here to help people who have questions or problems with fraudulent, crooked, unscrupulous, unethical or outright illegal operators who live to pray off the naive or uninformed. We do this because we take great offense at any scurrilous soul who may think he's sly enough to make a living as a parasite.
This case shows that we do occasionally succeed in our goal. You may want to remember this site when you launch your next endeavor. To do any kind of "business" you'll need a phone number. And anyone checking on that number will end up at a site like this. And people like us will be waiting. The complaints come in, are verified by other disgruntled victims and "Poof!". You'll be sitting there doing exactly what you're doing now. Remembering when you were "still working".
In summation..Du ar full av varm luft. Det forklarar de luktar.
Skeff Ett Liv!
Gunnar

anyone (800 notes julie forte) who allows ANONYMOUS & unverified SLANDEROUS & DEFAMATORY postings by anyone about anyone is a FUKIN A***OLE IN THE BIGGEST SENSE OF THE WORD.  this all started with so called "larry f" in 2009, someone who has never even met me and i suspect called me initially as a scavenging maggot and was pissed when he (it?) was given the bum's rush.  When i foolishly took the bait and posted a legit response, suddenly the 800 notes gears started turning and various creative postings  apeared such as "mike h" (who i wrongly assumed was someone i had actualy dealt with, sorry Mike with
Cougar!), "Joe", "luke" etc.  "deeply saddened" sounds legit because when i was still working i was the only service provider i know of who returned deposits unconditionally.  The most recent postings (badg, casa) are obviously julie forte 800 notes self defence/promotion.  GODDAM RIGHT I HAV A CHIP ON MY SHLDR!  please delete all posts, "julie", and req posters 2 I.D. themselves, thx, andy.

Sounds like someone has a chip on their shoulder.   Good things & bad things  happen.  But this site has provided far more good than any bad,  by a long shot.

Fake posting- "this site is an extortion scam...", really? In what way? My money is still in my pocket? Not out a dime? Could you please post YOUR real name (in fairness) so I may Google you? It seems like YOU are trying to extort this site.

to anyone reading the anonymous and bogus postings on this site PLEASE GOOGLE: JULIE FORTE 800 NOTES  - this site is an extortion scam and unfortunatly i took the bait and responded to it, silly me - i only started using the internet recently after being provided use of an iphone (idiot phone) by a friend who thought i needed to at least "join the 90's" if not this century.  The MISINFORMATION NET is exactly that!

Hey Andy, you wouldn't happen to be related to Tammy and Gordon Sinclair?  You certainly act like them!

Thank you Andy McDonald for the many times that you gave us your time & knowledge re the finnicky car i once owned. When we were quoted thousands of dollars you often got us going again for pocket change. You seemed to really care about us & our old car. It made me very sad when Milan & I read these rude messages that you told us about. Andy let me say that at 88 years of age I know one thing for sure, you cannot please everyone! Stop dealing with the 'rotten apples'. If anyone would like to call us Zora & Milan at 905 561 5805 before 8pm and please no rude people thank you.

Thank you Zora & Milan (retired couple & car enthusiasts) for your vindication and endorsment of my character (now deleted by 800notes) and your expression of disgust with the cowardly anonymous slander posted on this site. anyone wishing to talk to this REAL couple in their 80's will be reminded of their advice to me " you can't please everyone and so best to be more selective and don't do business with the rotten apples".  if you are respectful and polite you can talk to them and many other real customers who are quite pleased with my efforts to save them money and extend the service life of their vehicles by contacting me at. 905-580-4341 anytime.

Fake POSITIVE and NEGATIVE reviews have been removed from this discussion.

this slanderous msg is sent by mr "baught" - funny how he has "baught" several cars from me under several differant aliases, u think he (it) would learn a lesson after the 1st "bad deal"! funnier still because i don't sell cars, i help people with auto repairs/restoration & preventive service. this coward has crossed the line with this latest post and now will pay to the maximum criminal and civil penalties available. u will b outed you coward, your isp will be served with a warrent soon. you'll be lucky if i dont find u b4 the authorities. GOVERN YOURSELF ACCORDINGLY.

i'm far from perfect but i try to conduct myself without harming others.

Dear Mike: youre welcome that i introduced you to the lady with the low km 92 Cougar 25th anniv. (for which you paid her 1/2 what it was worth) and introduced u to the exc. mechanic who has helped u since, again doing the impossible for the ungrateful!  HEY MIKE: EVEN A DOG STOPS WHINEING WHEN IT GETS WHAT IT WANTS!  Mike, i won't lower myself to your level and post your name/#, but i do care about you on a basic human level - lose the bitterness, the cigarettes and lose some weight before you stroke out and have a heart attack. Again, if anyone wants references from normal, decent people about me, call me, andy 24h 905 580 4341 thx.

This whineing maggot misses the point. HE GOT HIS DEPOSIT BACK! (after the ungrateful demanded the impossible). he obviously is unwelcome wherever he darkens a doorway. Anyone interested in talking to the many people i've helped over the years including seniors on fixed incomes or the many people i"ve rescued from predatory Dealers, Mechanics, Towing Chasers, Finance cos., Ins.Adjusters, Bodyshops, etc. etc. (no offence to the many good people in this business who know me well) is welcome to call me, Andy @ 905 580 4341 Oakville 24hr and i'll give you a LONG list of people glad to vouich for me! This anonymous coward is not man enough to post his name or number because he knows he will be outed for the b***s***ting a***ole that he is. Sorry i got sucked in to trying to help this maggot with his car problems, i'm not a physchiatrist and did'nt recognize the real problem: THE NUT BEHIND THE WHEEL!

Who is using this number?

I wish I had seen this site before I too got sucked in !!

He is very dishonestand has not been up front with me. I gave him a deposit and it took several weeks to get my money back. He has a shady repair mechanic i hamilton .

What was your experience with this guy?

I AM NOT A CAR SALESMAN OR CAR DEALER, and have never represented myself as such. I AM accredited at Georgian College with a previous OMVIC license and passed the course with a 98 % grade.
I have never been sued, threatened physically, had my property vandalized, or have been the subject of any complaints to OMVIC or the MTO. WHAT I AM IS A VERY GOOD MECHANIC who has helped a lot of people with limited resources to remain safely mobile.

Calls himself a used car salesman He is not even registered with OMVIC. Very shady character do not buy a car from this scam artist.
