All,

I am looking to get an alignment done on my 74. I am located in Cecil county MD. 20 minutes outside Bear , DE. Any places that can be recommended to have them do the work for me? I don't want to just go to any shop. I know these cars need a certain area of expertice to have them worked on correvtly. Any help is appreciated.

CB

Can't tell you where to go but I can give you some advice.Make your appointment well in advance so you can wait for your car,don't leave it and come back later and no road test by them.Too many idiots want to road test your vette.If they insist on a road test,you go with them.

I'll guarantee you that you'll have a lot more fun in a garage of ill-repute. The car's alignment won't be right, but yours will.

Check out the ads in this magazine. Call to see how they handle corvettes, making sure to ask if they have shims or do you buy and bring them. Also, call some of the classic car repair shops in the ads and ask them to suggest a shop.
