    So, I've been doing some work on my car and wanted to be sure that I documented the details similar to records I would receive from a shop.

    Attached is what I came up with.

    Feel free to copy or modify this in any way that suits your own needs. I know many members here do there own work and I think it is important to document it properly should one decided to sell their car at some point.

    Looks good to me.
    It's much more professional looking than my service records.

    Yes, I started doing this a few years ago with a Porsche I used to own. I did a lot of my own work as well. I simply d/l'd a template from MSFT online and made up an invoice that looked like a shop's.

    I think I just called my shop "Bloody Knuckles Automotive."

    I just keep the part receipt and write the mileage on anything significant.

    Looks great.

    I generally don't believe anything I have done myself.. but that would make me completely unsociable and near to living in a hut in the woods.

    That being said.. a lot of us do our own things on our cars. I think any future buyer would gauge your receipts, a PPI and a convo with you to determine if you knew what you were doing.

    and if they can't.... you know what.. the deal wasn't meant to be and you both move on.

    I need to start getting my receipts and stuff together.. thanks for the push.
