Zografos Mobil Auto Care 800% mark-up on engine block and over-pricing on every part (including engine paint and antifreeze) to rebuild engine on 1977 Cutlass. Houston, Texas
Avoid Zofrafos Brothers Mobile Car Care Repair. Yes, Dino and Jimmy are engaging individuals. They will work with you and gain your trust then completely violate that trust by gross over-charging on parts and service. I just had my 1977 Cutlass Supreme engine rebuilt. When I got the car back, the engine was extremely noisy. I examined the bill and consulted with a non-biased auto mechanic. Here's an example: $59.86 for a water pump, IGN wire set for $61.85, long engine block that cost $1670 and just to kick me in the pants one more time, $37.90 for antifreeze.
Some of the workmanship at this shop is shoddy. Believe me, you will be back several times to have issues dealt with.

" The best lesson learned here is who to listen to. "
That's just too funny. You posted the original complaint as DaveD and then posted this follow up complaint as Tony. You posted both of them, so which one of your personalities should we listen to?

The originial report misstates by miles the actual event and pricing mark-ups. High quality parts were used throughout with a 12-month guarantee. The engine rebuilt is as solid as they come. The best lesson learned here is who to listen to. There are lots of back lot mechanics out there who seem to know everything, but trust mechanics like Dino and Jimmy to do the job right.
