Thumbs up Another good shop.

Hi,

My 2 cents:

Called Carmine at Burdi's Motorworks in Schiller Park for some assistance in wiring my radio and antenna. They were recommended by Midwest Electronics.

Arrived at 8:00 am Saturday morning and was greeted by Carmine, Jr. His father drove up a few minutes later and went right to work on my car.

In a nutshell, Carmine got everything sorted and all that remained was for me to run the wire from the trunk to the radio. Carmine showed me what to do.

He then took me on a little tour and showed me MB diagnosis unit which was an education in and of itself.

He spent 5 or 6 years at an MB dealership in Germany as an apprentice. Then to Italy for anther 5 years as I recall. Came to US and ultimately worked for 20 years at Loeber Motors in downtown Chicago.

Very pleased that he took the time to educate me and he gave me a few pointers for my 300E. It looks like he'll be doing the little bit of body work that I want done as well.

Very reasonable cost as well.

So, my thoughts are that he's well worth checking out and I'll be back.

His phone is 847-678-4801.

Regards,
