hey Craig, welcome to the club, nice to have another northwest member on baord. I like your spirit about keeping the car till you die, not to sure about garages round your area but I'm sure someone will be able to advise!

Any chance of some Pics of the car ?

It will be. Both myself and Barney have used him. He re-built my engine. He's old school and really knows his stuff.

Craig, I use a garage in Eccles called Unicorn motors, he's no specialist but a good mechanic who knows his stuff. I know JUZ17 from this forum also uses him and has been impressed. Depends what you want doing if its just general maintenance he's your man, if your thinking of upgrades and mods probably need to look for someone else.
