Default Help Fayetteville, NC Area

Hi All.

I`m switching my exhaust and need someone
in the Fayetteville area with a lift.
Looking for a competent shop, or individual?

Seems like all the folks i contact are afraid of C5`s.

Anyone?

Thanks,
John

Hi John,
You may want to e-mail lcvette1@aol.com .His name is Chris and lives here in Wilmington.It seems i recall him saying something about someone he knew in F'ville that does this sort of thing--heck--he may be interested in doing this himself--he is very good and does this kind of work very reasonable.I would imagine Chris will see this thread--but give him an e-mail --he is a super guy.

Can anyone help me? Shucks i was in a Meineke yesterday
because of my h-pipe flange needing some welding and
the owner still wouldn`t do it for me! They had my car
on the lift , i don`t know what his problem was.

I`m beginning to believe that Fayetteville isn`t Corvette
friendly!

Thanks for any help in locating a shop
in the nearby area.

John

nice enough to take on this task for me.

the same predicament.

Check with Tim at TG Engineering, 4776 Yadkin Rd (868-1078). It's a foreign car shop but Tim runs the custom exhaust shop co-located with them. I swear, Tim could bend exhaust pipe inside a bottle and weld ice cream to air. He's maticulous to a fault. He's worked on my Mustangs and my Vettes. Tell him PT sent you.

John, It might be worthwhile to stop by TG and talk to them about your "other issues". You may save quite a bundle.

Good luck either way.

Actually, there's another GS in Hope Mills. I ran across the owner about a month and a half ago.. about wrecked my Harley trying to catch him. He's not a member of the Forum... but a nice guy nonetheless...

Just wanted to thank P.T for referring me
to T.G`s. After Meineke screwed up my
exhaust flange weld job, i turned to Tim
at T.G`s for a fix and he did an excellent job.

Y`all take care!
