I can't believe I haven't put this out here yet. Need a great independant shop in San Antonio? Try Randy Zand at European Car Parts on Eckert Road at Bandera, on the Northwest side of town. He's been doing this for 17 years. Heinz answers the phone, they are at 210.521.8822. I've had my cars in there dozens of times (I do most of the easier stuff myself), and referred many friends there. Always honest and very reasonably priced. A hint, though. While he can and does turn repairs around quickly, you'll be more appreciated and maybe save a little if you give him plenty of time. Along with normal German (please don't take your Jag there...) auto repair, they do great paint and body work as well (I've seen him take a Porsche hood that was crunched and folded in half, and make it like new!). He's done body work on all 3 of our vehicles (and 1 was a Nissan pickup!). I have absolutely no $$ interest in this place, but I would appreciate if you told Randy I told you to stop by.
