Title: Looking for a mechanic - San Francisco peninsula
Post by: sl113newguy on August 18, 2022, 19:24:39
Looking for a recommendation for a mechanic anyone has personally used in the San Francisco Bay Area/Peninsula, both for regular maintenance as well as smaller restoration work. Could be different shops of the same shop...either is OK -
Feel free to PM - thanks everyone.

I did look and found some older threads, all a handful of years old, such as

so wanted to check since it has been a while...

Try Autohaus Klaus Nagel in Redwood City on Industrial or Burlingame Motors in Burlingame on Rollins.  Both are quality shops.

sl113newguy - did you find a mechanic you liked?

Searching through Google Maps and Yelp - I found a few names that seemed credible / or at least have worked on pagodas. I don't own an SL yet, but was advised to make sure there was a good mechanic(s) who I felt like I could work with longer term. Thus my interest in seeing who you might have found.

Sorry for delayed response @lreppond. I just contacted Renee at Burlingame Motors regarding some hardtop restoration. Thanks for the tip!
