Default 928 Mechanic needed in NJ
Help please,
Does anyone know of a 928 savy mechanic in the NJ area?
An owner is being screwed by a local dealer over a number of relativly small issues with his car.
Your help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Roger

I don't know of any, but I think Anthony (Cobalt) has used someone he trusts.

What area?

Capt. Earl is in the suburbs of Philadelphia if you're looking in the South Jersey area.
NJ isn't wide. But it sure is tall.

I am really sorry about my lack of geographical knowledge of the States. I thought NJ was a town - Duh!!!
I just left a message for the guy to call me and let me know more precisly where he is.
Area code is 732 which tells me its in the middle on the East side.
I will let you know as soon as I know.
I really appreciate the feedback.
At least we will be able to get him to join Rennlist.

732, that's Mike's neck of the woods.

I thought NJ was a town
Might be if it was located inside TX!! Isn't TX a country

I'm in 732. Capt. Earl is about an hour east of here.

What kind of help does he need?

If your friend has a 16v, I'm likely able to help. I'll pm you my phone number.

Rog, There's a Bricktown between Lakewood and Pt. Pleasant,
not too far from Tom's River. I don't know about Brick.

G'luck.
