It pays to network: I just got back from meeting with a local mechanic/shop owner, who was referred by another friend. He is going to do the work on my SD that I do not have the time/skill/tools/confidance to do myself. In return ,I will utiize my Skills as a plumber to work on his house to offset the $$$ factor. The "Wheeling Gods" have smiled favorably upon this poor child!

Can you kindly post the details in this forum:

Yes sir ,I will add info for others to see ,thank-you.

From one metro Detroiter to another, thanks. While I do not hire out much of my work on the 300D, it's good to know there are good local shops, should need come up.

In search of my 1987 300D in anything but white.

Right -On. This is a win-win situation for me,to be able to spend a day or day-and-a-half doing what I do in trade for someone doing the work on my car, especially when it comes to the flex discs,lot easier if you have the car on a lift. I usually work on my back in the drive-way, when it comes to tasks that are under the car. It also doesnt hurt that this mechanic is from across the pond,which in a way ,I prefer when it comes to someone working on my SD.

There it is.
