@BADSPD - Stephen thanks for that rec, I think you're referring to this German Car Service (Yelp page)? I just tried calling, it's busy, but I bet this is the old number if it's under new management. Their website says they've closed, but it could very well be that they haven't updated it yet... I'll try to drive by soon but my other car has a flat, so I'm currently stranded!
@Robert M thanks for confirming that, that's unfortunate.
@aircooled @Stan Galat thanks for a fuller picture re Chico. I think it's impossible for any one service provider to be perfect across the board, as evidenced by a bunch of reviews I've been reading re various providers. People think they're either saints or devils. Of course, I'd wayyy rather rely on the experiences here rather than some random Yelp reviewer...
Bruce, sounds exciting about your build!
Stan, you strike me as someone who does most of the work yourself therefore not needed to rely on a shop, but any other recommendations otherwise?
