suggested car performance shops - bop

Postby NOLAW » Mon Aug 03, 2009 7:38 pm

Im finding it harder and harder to get time to work on my project these days and have such little left to get it running, im thinking about taking it to someone (preferably in the bop) to do the small jobs i have left such as brake/clutch lines, feul lines, water lines, hose plumbing etc, can anyone suggest a place thats up to the job but not too overpriced?

also if anyone has a rough idea of how much i may be paying that would be great, i have most of the parts its just a matter of fidling around and getting it all in place etc

the car is a 1973 KE20 corolla with a 4agte conversion

Try DVSMOTORSPORT on here, he works at PF automotive during the day and may be able to do work on your car in his spare time.

Seconded that Dave from PF is a Very good guy.
