When you take your car to the Happy Car Place, you know you won't get ripped off. I know five or six others who get serviced there and everyone agrees. Frank and Fred will explain all your options and won't "fix" anything that isn't broken. One of my cars had a transmission problem and my girlfriend brought it to a specialty shop. They told her it needed a new or rebuilt tranny. I took it to Happy Car and they found a fluid leak. Thats all it needed, a new hose. The other guys probably thought they had an easy mark, a "gullible" woman. Thanks guys!

(This is basically a repeat of comments I sent along with Happy Car Place's undate info.) Happy Car Place is at 2021 Boston Ave., Bridgeport, Ct, 06610 (near the Stratford townline). Phones... Frank 203-579-0668, Fred 203-579-0666 (Don't let the '666' deter you, Fred is the 'anti-devil'.) These guys are great! THEY SHOULD BE GUESTS ON YOUR SHOW! I've been taking my cars to them for over 5 years and have NEVER been disappointed in their work or charges. (I no longer ask them to give me a repair estimate for even the most 'Car-Talk-type' bizarre problems.) Honesty, expertise, compassion, honesty, patience, determination and honesty are hallmarks of their operation. (Did I mention Honesty?) Don Mensik PS Love your show!
