Need a mechanic in Jax, Fl

Post by sharonmd57 »

I have a 1979-1980 (there seems to be some confusion on the year) Fiat spider 2000 pinfarin and I need a good mechanic to look at the engine in jax, fl. I have taken to foreign auto parts places and they seem to be ripping us off. Any good mechanics out there?

What seems to be the problem with the engine? Perhaps we can assist with some diagnosing so you will have a better idea of what to talk to prospective mechanics about.

Welcome to the forum and looking forward to seeing more about you and your car.

Before my dad passed her on to me, my Spider "lived" in Jacksonville. I'll try to find out who he took the car to for service.

Found out that when she was still in his possession, my dad had the Spider serviced at RPM on Phillips Hwy. At the time, there was a mechanic there with a lot of Fiat experience. Not sure if he is still there (my dad doesn't remember his name).
