Mechanic in GVA area?

[Vancityguy]

Just wondering if anyone recommend a good mechanic in the GVA area(van/bby/rmd) as I'd like to get my c4 back on the road. Thanks!

I posted twice, reason being, 1 in general discussion to get a broader audience and in turn more replies, 2 in the c4 forum because I own a c4 and some guys only stick to their gen posting areas. I'm not spamming or anything like that. Just trying to find someone good to work on my car, thats all

Hey VCG! Hopefully someone will be able to point you towards a good mechanic! Do you need work done or are just looking for one in case something goes wrong?

I answered in the general forum a couple of days ago.

Riley - I just needed some basic stuff done to get it ready and really just as one over but nice to have a good mechanic for just in case also.

Nascar - I saw your recommendation in the other thread. I appreciate the reply but would you happen to know anyone directly on vancouver at all?

VCG. There are lots of mechanics in Vancouver but if you want a Corvette mechanic I recommend the C&P guys. Sorry I don't know a Vette mechanic in town.

Nascar - doesn't have to be a corvette mechanic necessarily but just someone good and honest.

For specific extensive work id definitely look into someone who has a history with corvettes however.

Makes sense! The two people I like to have numbers for are a good mechanic and a reputable body shop....although I haven't needed that one yet!

I take all my cars (Vettes included) to Bob, of Toyo Motors, in Richmond.
He is an ex-racer, and knows cars intimately, and does great work.
Just off No. 6 Road, just north of Hwy 91.

Ntmd8r - thanks for the tip on toyo motors, I will probably check them out! What kind of rates do they charge?

 

[Ntmd8r]

Guy,
I'm not really sure.
Whenever I go there, he just presents me with a bill, and I pay it.
He sure seems to be reasonable though.

ntmd8r - sounds good enough to me, worth checking him out, thanks again.
