Rhode Island Mechanic?

[Mammon]

I bought my '86 last spring...all stock, no mods, 70K. Very good shape in general, and have only had to replace the alternator with a high-output to handle the alarm and stereo.

Admittedly, I like driving it a lot more than I do working on it. This is really my daily driver, and reliability is just as important as performance - I don't plan on dragging for pinks anytime soon. Does anyone know of a good Grand National mechanic in the RI area? I know of Cotton's in Mass, but they're about two hours away.

Thanks...

For anything serious (and even most stuff that isn't), Cotton is worth the trip. In the north east, he can't be beat.

Where abouts in Rhode Island are you ?

What are you looking to have done ?

Hey Matt -

My restoration interests are a little erratic (like the kid in "Christine") - I'd like to do everything from addressing the suspension and a performance intercooler to getting the AC and windshield wiper motor fixed. It's running pretty well, but I'd be hesitant to drive it outside of my AAA area right now. I'm in Providence...you?
