Anyone know a guy?
So, now that I have a C2 I want to learn as much as possible and learn how to do some of the maintenance/ repairs on my own. Of course it helps to know a guy or two nearby so we help each other and about sometimes excessive hourly rates. I live in the Bucks County, Chalfont area of PA. Anyone know a couple guys (old school gear heads) in the area that are willing to help people out? thanks,

I'm no expert, but have just about completely restored my 64, and have helped a couple of local buddies with theirs.
I'm in the Easton area, if you ever get over this way, but I think were bout 30 miles apart.
There is also " The Corvette Shop" in Pipersville, they do very nice work. Ask for Sean. !

Sounds like a fair price. Our local tire shop gets 135/hour and the Mercedes dealer up the street gets 250/hour. I have a good friend that I worked for many years ago and had his own shop for over 30 years. He has done every kind of classic car there is. I'll ask him if he is up to some work in his home shop. Last time ( about two years ago) he did a 49 MG . He charged the owner 50 an hour. I told him he was crazy.
