Default Mechanic near Stratford CT

Hi - I am about to jump into your wonderful world of 356's for the fist time. Excited. I have found a neat 356 B and it looks OK to my beginners eye but want it checked out by an expert.
Does anyone know of one near Stratford CT, or is there a register of experts on a website anywhere? (cant find anything on the PCA website).
Many thanks
John
