For those that take your car to a mechanic for repairs For those of you who take your car to a mechanic, is your mechanic from a garage that deals with older cars (specialty garage) or do you take it to a garage that you take your modern cars to? Just curious. I've done all I want to do on my car and now I want a professional to work on it. |
Re: For those that take your car to a mechanic for repairs The only one besides me who works on my car,inspections tire stuff etc. is someone I have known since I was in grade school. A good long time friend,even though a Mopar freak,it's good to trust someone. |
Re: For those that take your car to a mechanic for repairs You need to drive your car to the nursing home because that is where you will find the former mechanics that used to work on these cars. This was not meant to be a wise crack - it's the reality of owning a 30+ year old vehicle. |
Re: For those that take your car to a mechanic for repairs I think it's mostly networking and finding somebody that has the capabilities. For example, I have an engineer co-worker that makes a little money on the side fixing old cars for other co-workers that are too cheap to drive something decent, but have no skills of their own. |

Re: For those that take your car to a mechanic for repairs Got it everyone. Thanks for everyone's input. I'm just looking for someone to do a final inspection and correct a few issues that I need help with. @NoEmissions84TA - I don't think you have to be old to be good at working on old cars. ;) |
