Does anyone in the Atlanta area know Bob (Robert) Dukas of Corvette Palace?
My dad is using him to rebuild his C-3. Any thoughts or inputs would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Dukas has a beautiful green C3 :yesnod:

I use Thunder Performance locally http://www.thunderperformance.com They specialize in late model injected motors, but know carbs very well too. Jeff the owner has a 2nd Gen Camaro with a carbed small block with tons of spray.

He is an active member of the Classic Glass Corvette Club in Marietta. Are you having issues with his work. Unfortunately, I don't have any firsthand knowledge of his work.

Bob Dukas is an excellent mechanic and specializes in C-3's and C-4's. He is also a former Corvette Museum Ambassador. As said earlier he is a member of Classic Glass Corvette Club of Marietta, Georgia, as I am.

I think your relative's car is in EXCELLENT hands.
