    people drive your cars !!!!!
    Drove 30 miles yesterday, over 50 today.
    217 South, I-5 South, 205 east, thru LO, I-5 north and 26 west.......
    Not one exotic, couple of Porsche SUVs, if you leave it in the garage your battery will die, your seals will leak, your shocks will fail, your tires will still have those little nipple thingys on them and they will be so old they are unsafe ;)
    Have a happy new year and enjoy life.

    They do Ferrari work? Just modern (post 2000) cars, or any of them?

    I'm pretty happy with my present options, but it's always nice to know that there is someone else out there.

    I'm pretty sure Mike can work on older Ferraris.

    He served as the Technical Advisor on the short-lived Discovery show "Highway to Sell", where they refurbished older vehicles to then sell. These were typically 50s and 60s American Muscle cars. For a while, he had folks sending him vehicles from all parts of the US to restore. He unfortunately had to tell them that is not his focus; just servicing.

    Give him a ring. It doesn't hurt to stop by and chat...

    Hope that helps.

    I'm pretty well covered with RTGT for the modern cars and ATD for vintage, with the Jag Shop for either if necessary. But always good to know about other options.

    My brother has been using Avant Garde Collection for a bunch of his obscure stuff.

    I've also been using Mike Burback for some vintage Mercedes stuff, which he's really good at. My sense is that he could figure out just about anything if necessary, but it's nice to have someone who's "been there done that" for the Ferrari stuff.

    Ferrari day today! Saw the same red 355 spyder twice, and then a red 360 spyder, all in the Bethany area.

    I was out in my 612, of course...
