There is a Corvette shop on Jefferson Avenue in Newport News, but, I have not heard of anyone having any performance work done there. I know they do some restoration on older models.

Thanks, I have seen the place on Jefferson, it doesn't look like he does much with newer models. I am looking for some one to do maintenance that I can't or don't have the time to do. I have good shops I deal with on my foreign cars, but they don't work on Corvettes.

I have normal service work done at Casey Chevrolet. They are expensive but the work is done right. Will is their Corvette mechanic. He has been featured in the newspaper due to all the Corvette training he has behind him. I don't know how the dealership would react to a modded Vette since mine is completely stock.

Mine is completely stock except for mufflers and shifter and I have been getting work done at Holiday in Williamsburg and so far have been happy I was just looking for an independent.
