71 Vette work
I am looking for someone in Delaware that does work on Corvettes on the side. I have a 71 coupe that has been in the garage since 2006. I do start it monthly and it has been driven a few time each year. It needs rear wheel bearings and some other work to get it back on the road. I am looking for someone that does this on the side. I don't have a lot of money to spend and I am not is a hurry. Does anybody out there have a friend or can you recommend a shop that will not rob me? I would appreciate any suggestion.

Honestly I would be very scared to have someone rebuild trailing arms on the side. It's not as simple as front wheel bearings and brake jobs. Special tools, critical tolerances, and plenty of experience is the only way I would go. I don't know anyone in that specific area but you need to find someone that specializes in Corvette specific trailing arm rebuilds.
