Sometimes I think that Mario may be one of those pathetic people who crave attention - any attention. They'd love to get some positive attention but they crave attention to the point where they prefer negative attention over no attention at all. Sad, but there are people in the world like this. Given Mario's skills and abilities it may be that he has decided that negative attention is the only thing he can muster. |

| hey guys I saw mario at a FMBC campout last weekend. he was down there taking pixs of Randy's(Zooman) bus and laughing to himself about what a hack job it was. After he left I took a look myself and didn't see anything unusally. There was a little bondo on the outter skin but nothing too bad.As everybody knows kelly doesn't do the finish work so Randy had that done by a body shop. Randy was happy with it the way it was and if I remember right it was done about 4 years ago, as I was there when he backed into that tree. Kinda looks like mario is just looking for anything to throw at Kelly. later mark d |
Thanks Mark and everyone else who stands behind me. Mark knows the whole story behind my animosity toward Mario. He emailed me that he wouldn't post the corner pics if i would remove my pages of Joan's car and my dealings with him from my website. That met with a prompt F#$k You and some more choice words. Mark If you see Randy or know how to contact him let me know. I want to talk to him about this and hopefully get him to post his true feeling on the work, if he's not happy i want to know it as i will make it right. But if he is still happy i want to prove Mario is lying as usual to try and blackmail me. The pics of the work on that corner on in my archives 2004 September i'm pretty sure. Y'all welcome to ck them out and let me know if anything looks funky. Again thanks Kelly |
Hey kelly Randy didn't have any complaints about your work at all. He was laughing at Mario . He is a really cool guy who works at the NC zoo in asheboro. He doesn't get on line very much just sometimes on the FMBC. Any new updates on bondoheaD ??? later mark d |

Nope he screwed the pooch on that attempt so he's keeping his mouth shut and laying low for awhile i guess. I still want to talk to Randy, if you see him tell him to contact me, ok? Later and thanks

Mario has been using the claim of one new customer each day for so long, his customer base has long since outnumbered the actual number of vw's on the east coast...

Anyone recognise this bus?
Looks like the rear corner has had a repair at some point.
Here's the latest reply:
the body is in great shape no signs of any accidents lots of new rubber, new windshield, very comfortable 85 vanagon seats new tires top canvas is in great shape , fiberglass top just painted. bumpers also repainted. and wheels. under carriage in great shape but sorry no pictures. New 2 barrel carb complete fresh tune-up ,new engine seal, electronic ignition , new mounts and sorry I'm sure I'm for getting a few things lol also lots of brake work. 99% rust free.
I drove it on a very steep curvy road and it handled great.
Now I have another eMail from frank yar <[email protected]> promising more detailed pictures
Charlie. |

I was the one egging him on, getting him talking. I was so stunned by the bullshit coming out of his mouth, I failed to act.
I have failed you.

Mario isnt from NC, He is an import so dont be ashamed. And yes, last I heard he is still working on peoples cars. I recently had a customer call and wanted me to work on a car he had fixed up by Mario, lucky for me it was a Vanagon so I sent him to a Vanagon shop locally
