Joel carefully stepped Elise’s Hyundai up onto the pad next to Ryan’s Mustang, the front tires groaning softly as they rotated over the concrete. He handled it gently as if it were just as valuable as any of the other vehicles around the shop. His hand searched momentarily for the hood release beneath the dash as he saw another car pull up; giving the handle a firm pull and hearing the mechanism release with a subtle thud. He took another long drink from his beer as he walked around the nose giving a wave to the newcomers before his fingertips slid under the lip of the hood and found the tab to allow it to rise. He set the bottle casually on top of a fuse box and set the prop as Elise came up to study what he was doing. If she was truly clueless about it, he was more sure of his immediate assessment just listening to it as he moved it. “These things have an interference engine…” He said taking the bottle in hand again and finishing it off. “If you don’t replace the timing belt, the valves and the pistons will start to touch.” His hands demonstrated pushing the top of the bottle into his open palm. “Bad things happen then.” He said with a small smirk, looking to see if she was following at all. “It’s a regular thing on these cars, yours is just starting to do it. Pretty easy fix, just a couple hours.”
