I have a 2002 5/7L vette in need of a rear main gasket and am looking for a good reasonable shop to fix it. Does anyone know any in the Cape Coral or Ft. Myers, FL area? Thx

Now I got a laugh! I AM serious. There is a Shell station on Sanibel that does car repairs...kinda like the old days, where they pump your gas, and repair your car.

Ok, sorry. Once I stopped there for gas and when I was cleaning off the salt mist from all the windows (a safety hazard), the idiot came out and told me to take it to a car wash! What a dick!
