Default Mechanic Suggestions

So my mechanic just gave me the worst news today and said he is no longer working on cars on the side........GREAT!!!!!! Now who do I trust to work on the Lex?????? My mechanic did everything to that car since I had it and now I'm screwed especially since I need to service it now. Any suggestions or recommendations??? I appreciate your input.

Find a house with a garage, get a good GS manual, and buy yourself some decent tools. Free labor is always the best. Not to mention New York has some of the best Neloc owners around who can probably help with a lot of your needs. What kind of service are you looking to do?

Is he getting out of the auto mechanic business all together or just going to work for a garage?

We are a little south of you, but have been in the import world since 1998. We actually had a customer bring his Lexus IS-F all the way down from VT for a header and exhaust install. The drive was +8 hours, but our work speaks for itself. From regular maintenance jobs to custom fabrication, we take care of it all. Feel free to give me a call at any time for questions about pricing or setting up an appointment.
