I highly recommend this.

I started my lawn service when I was about 9-10 and did it up until I graduated high school. I started out with one lawn, did a kick *** job every time and the business just flowed in because of that.

People will like giving money to a 16 yr. old more than a middle aged guy to cut their grass because they know you really need the money and you'll always be there to serve them.

Just borrow your dad's mower, buy your own gas, keep the blade sharpened and edge an blow after you cut.

Mowing lawns is a great way to make $20 in one hour. Seeing how we're approaching summer here, lawn services will definitely be needed.

If you're interested in doing this, let me know and I can give you a few tips.

$35 for labor!!! i'll take you up on that when the time comes. i think there's a site where you can get brand new ac delco motors for $50. i know i paid more than that for part and labor from my own mechanic doing a side job for me on the weekend. how long does it take you to install it? i was there when we installed my driver side motor and it took about 2 hours and it was a real pain in the a**.

Yeh it takes about an hour give or take 15 minutes. And i told u i severely undercut everyone else. Do it more to help out fbody enthusiasts and make some grocery money on the side. And Autozone gives u a life time warranty on window motors.. think they are 50 bucks too.

Few places to check: Winndixie, Tire places like the others have said, little stores (like a bakery or dollar stores) which might even pay you under the table=not having taxes taken out of your pay.
Good luck

My current school offers nothing the one I will be going to next year will though.Besides yesterday I started this paperboy thing seling news papers. I will try this for a while and if the money isn't right (commision) I will be going on somewhere else for a more constent paycheck.
