Default Looking for a garage in Richmond VA...

Just picked up my first Corvette (95 Coupe).

I'd like to swap out the fluids asap.

Does anyone in or around Richmond VA have some extra garage space they'd let me use for this work? Preferably with a lift of some sort?

I live in an apartment complex and can't do the work in the tight garage.

My car also needs some new front upper and lower ball joints. Anybody have any experience in that area?

I'm in the area but like you I live in an appartment so no help there. I am sure someone will chime in soon. However, if you decide to have a shop do it (ball joints etc.) go to Zips they are first class all the way. they are in mechanicsville just north of richmond or there is a smaller shop south in Colonial heights called stingrays from heaven, the customer service is kinda lax but the work they do is top notch. SorryIi couldn't be of more help.

I live in Richmond Area. I have a big 2 car garage, but no lift. I do have extended ramps, and floor jacks.

What model vette do you have?

Also, you could take it to Victory Lane Auto - They specialize in corvettes

For a shop try Lakeside Automotive. They are in the Lakeside area of Henrico County. They are really good with Vettes.

LAKESIDE!!! They are great, and very honest. ZIP is good, but they are on the pricey side, and I am not 100% certain they are doing maintenance work... not positive though.
