I searched around for years till I found a girl with a mechanic in the family..... It was such a good thing that I married her.

But seriously a good mechanic is worth his (or her) weight in gold.
I have been lucky in that I have known a few & it always seems as though the good ones always work out of a crappy looking old tin shed-for-a-workshop setup.
Maybe it's something to do with the fact that all the latest equipment + flashy buildings cost big $$$$ & that cost has to be passed on somewhere. ie/ To you!

There's nothing like a knowing a mechanic personally though..... Hope this 1 works out o.k.
