Isn't the real question, "Where can I find an honest, REASONABLY PRICED mechanic....?"
I am having trouble finding mechanics that don't cost $450 for any job at all! Case in point,
my '47 Cadillac's right leaf spring was accidentally jacked up by the local Goodyear mechanic who had no CLUE how to fix it. My very competant shop in Boulder said they could pop it back for me at a cost of $30!!! Just to lift it up, and apply a crow bar to it!
OK, I have friends in the trade. It is hellish to run a shop, and damn near impossible to make a living if you don't charge for everything, but my god, its getting so I can't afford to maintain my car let alone restore it. This is on a fixed income. Whew. I just had to say it!! <img src="http://www.aaca.org/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/blush.gif" alt="" />
