Mechanic in Los Angeles Area?
I was wondering if anyone here works on or knows of any affordable trustworthy mechanics in the area. I just purchased a almost complete daytona coupe and am still learning to work on it and could use some help....

If you're willing to travel to the Hermosa Beach area I can recommend an awesome guy for these cars.

Probably not. I was thinking of Langley Kersenboom. He used to be in Hermosa Beach or near there but I don't have his current address.
