Recomended Corvette Mechanics in Maryland?
I have a few simple things to get taken care of. My horn currently is not working and is throwing a DTC B0026 LF/Driver Frontal Deployment Loop (Single Stage or Stage 1) Open code. I need somebody to root around in the steering wheel to see what is going on and I am not comfortable doing it myself.
Any recommendations?

Albert Daniel - 301-602-2591
Albert used to be THE Corvette mechanic at Criswell Chevrolet in Gaithersburg. He has since started his own care care business. He specializes in Corvettes and Lotus, but works on anything. He's a vette owner too. He has a silver Z06.
He has worked on just about every corvette owners car I know. As a matter of fact my car is at his shop right now for routine maintenance and Z06 springs.
He is a very trustworthy guy and his prices can't be beat.
Tell him Chris sent you.

I can also vouch for Albert. He's a nice guy, and he's worked on my car a number of times over the past 6 years.

I recommend Gallant's Automotive in Bel Air, MD. The owner, Rob Metzger (a story on name difference) is a great vette mechanic and will give you straight advice and a fair price.

Rick Kim is definitely worth the drive. I won't let anyone else work on my '02 Z. Call him up if you have any questions.

The Best Shop within two hours of central MD
I cant believe I missed this thread. Tony's is the place I take my 03 zo6 for anything from an oil change to a rebuild (if I needed one). He literally has every generation of vette in his shop. His dyno is awesome, and has regular updates from GM, which not every mechanic can get. If you need to take your vette somewhere take it there and have it done right the first time. Besides that he stands behind his work and will fix anything that you are unhappy with.

I use to live in Baltimore County. Now Live in CT.
I know rick Kim does FANTASTIC Transmission and Differential and drivetrain work. If he will work on your car,,, GO THERE!!
He is a stand up individual and he would be high on my list if I needed a Corvette Specialty Shop!
