Ok so lately I have been detailing out of my Camry that is set up for pure detailing. I will post a tread later on today just in case someone wants to do something similar.

So today I got a guy that wants 5 full corrections on his classic cars (along with some interior work and chrome work) and he said he is willing to trade. The trade is 5 full corrections for a 2000 Dodge Dakota. I am not a big fan of dodge but I really need a truck to put a bigger water tank in. The truck is worth around 4-5k and the paint is awesome considering the year. Fair trade?

If you want to know the condition of the cars they still have clear coats except for one that is crackling somewhat but not too bad. Most of the clear has just faded away over time. He just wants to make them look nice so he can sell them.hummmmm:dunno:

Yeah I figured too haha. He is helping me out since I am in college. Since I don't treat detailing as work I feel like I can enjoy doing these full corrections and then get a truck out of it as well.

Going to prepare it today. I am just wondering how to post pictures without it showing up as a thumbnail. It seems when I post a picture they all show up at the bottom of my post..

That is a very good trade IMO, even if your correction services would typically cost more than that. You are essentially trading labor for money either way you look at it, but in the case of the truck you actually keep getting paid (as long as it is running and serves you well).

Host your pictures on photobucket.com

Once the pictures are up, put your mouse over each picture you want posted, it will bring up a little menu thing and click the box below for each picture you want.

Then go to the bottom of the page and click "choose action", then "generate links for codes selected"

Copy the "full size" code under "IMG for bulletin boards & forums" and paste it into your thread.

And one nice thing to consider when bartering is that it keeps your relatives out of your business.:xyxthumbs:
