Default Need roadside assistance Georgia....

As some may know myself and my son were on a road trip adventure driving a supercharged euro 928 home from Pontiac MI to Ft Lauderdale Fl. Yesterday we did quite well and made Kentucky before retiring for the day. Today we made it to Georgia, 20 miles south in a little place called Union City.
Problem is I think our adventure is over......I believe the water pump has quit and the car cannot go any further. Do any of you guys know a good shop/mechanic where I can flatbed her and get the work done? I can leave her there and return in a week or so and drive her home. I'd welcome any suggestions and will need to make a decision by tomorrow....thanks guys....

Both are excellent options! Yep, and I'm sure you're glad you have that AAA platinum card too! Best wishes on a quick completion of your journey.

You might try Rich at Garage 928 in the Atlanta area: https://www.facebook.com/Garage-928-411618285644434/. You can contact him through Facebook, or perhaps ask (send a PM to) Wally Plumley for a recommendation, which will probably be near Atlanta as well.

Hope that helps.
