Hi All-

I need a mechanic in the Richmond, Va area. Any recommendations?

I've usually done all of my own work , but I'm selling my '73 SIII to my brother in law. He does not plan to work on it himself and the deal is that I'll present him a running vehicle that he can use around his farm for fun. The vehicle has been sitting since my last post on here (~3/2012). Shame, I know! However, in my defense, I got married in 5/12, wife had child shortly after.... Anyway, it has a new fuel tank, lines, etc. Carburetor is suspect. Possibly frozen brakes. Prior to that it ran great.(Ran when parked, right?) So, basically it has the 40 year old vehicle that has been sitting for the last two years syndrome.

Any recommendations would be a big help.

Thanks, Phil
Richmond, Va

Hey Phil - I highly recommend Chip Collingwood - EXCELLENT mechanic, and highly recommended. He just completed a Series IIa rebuild, and knows his stuff. Let him know "Jonesy" sent you. email - chip@theukmotorsports.com
