Excellent trans guy Pittsburgh area!

[ChrisF]

I have to share, this guy deserves more business - he has certainly earned mine! If we do business with him, it ensures he will be around for the future.

If TR owners in the Pittsburgh area are unaware, this guy is the goods.

Recently I had him rebuild a BRF 200-4R for me, and I couldn't be happier. Yes, there are lots of excellent transmission guys on this board for sure, like (Bruce aka WE4) has always been extremely nice and more than helpful. But this guy was closer and got me out the door for a lot less, and was equally as cool.

His shop is nothing short of a GN playground - parts cars, low mileage cars, parts galore. This guy has everything, and if he doesn't have what you need he knows where to find it!

Although he only rebuilt my trans for me, he really knows his way around our cars and has earned my trust for just about anything on my car. I have seen his bodywork and paint which is great, my trans performs better than expected, he is extremely well versed in the mechanicals of these cars, and he's even in the midst of a frame-off resto on a T Type.

I have yet to meet a fellow car guy that does this for a living that was as nice and accomodating - and I have been in this hobby for 20 years.

I thought that guys name was Shawn Schier or something like that. There used to be a guy in Clairton dealing with GNs, and there can't be too many in Clairton.

Turbo Buicks are NOT his hobby, they are his passion. No one else understands these cars like he does. Shawn learned these cars the hard way, there was no TurboBuick.com, he broke em' and leaned how to fix them himself.
