If someone gets hurt, & most likely a frequent occurrence from all the amateur/part-time do-it-your-self mechanics there, the insurance would be incredible? Even if you have the customers sign a waiver, still, keep the 911 phone handy for accidents, burns, cuts, etc. Suggestions? Only concern is the liability issue.

While stationed at Vandenburg AFB CA I took advantage of a setup like this. Not as clean or nicely detailed of course, but it cost almost nothing and I had a place to install my rear airshocks on my '68 Ford Fairlane.....I miss that car.

I always thought it was a great idea. When I was stationed at Hill AFB, in UT, I changed all 4 discs and calipers, and shocks, mounted and balanced my own tires. They had tools there, and there was always a few employees that were there to help, not to mention there was always numerous other there willing to help! The only problem I see is insurance as well. There are way too many people that are idiots, and think they should be paid for being an idiot. Trey Some military bases have something like this. I always thought it was a great idea.
