Ok everybody I'm going to spill the beans on Alan. I'm his neighbor and I've watched him work on this truck since he first towed it home. He plays this little modest, naive body man act pretty good. Don't let him fool you about his talent. This guy is good. I've watched him in action and it comes pretty easy for him. Plus, he has every tool known to man.
So don't fall victim to his "pity" story about him not being any good.
