Thanks for the reply c.d.,
Actually Nate, i believe, at SCR was recommended by some friends who had a M-Benz done there, but that was a restore, I gathered that they it might be good for the more intensive projects i need, but not for tuneups etc. I would like to have someone go over the whole car with me, so i can get an idea of the future work i've been mulling over. When i bought the car, two years ago now, it was ready to be just driven, had been cared for by a meticulous and knowledgeable previous owner, but i haven't been able to get it on the road so much until recently and now just want to have a mechanic i can rely on who knows the tii's.
