Hi All,

Just bought a 1980 daily driver that I know I'll be needing tech support for. Thanks in advance. It's gonna be a lot of fun driving the twisties around Northern California with this thing.
My first question is . . . can anybody recommend a good mechanic in San Francisco/Marin County area?

Guidare come lo hai rubato,

Bruce

Welcome to the forum. Is your car fuel injected or carbureted?

Any takers on the answer to this question??.?. Come on fellas pony up. And just FYI, C. Obert has a year and a half wait list time so that's out if you really need to get some work done.
