ANYONE know of a mechanic?

Hey all, does anyone know of a mechanic in the area of Santa Clarita ....or anywhere else for that matter that would be interested in some part time or side work to maintain our motors here at Castaic? We need to get a reliable and fast mechanic in here to keep our motors running for Castaic and Silverwood as soon as possible. It doesnt matter when he can do it. Weekends are good later in the afternoons as well. We just need someone to take care of the things that we cant do for the most part. My boss is looking for an hourly type thing, not BOOK TIME as these things are really not much to them.
If anyone here is interested or knows anyone who might be, please have them call me up at the shop. 661-775-6232 or pm me for my cell.

Thanks in advance to everyone.

Oh and how do you make this a STICKY?

Where is he located and let him know that book time cant be a factor in it. simple service and light repair for the most part. Ill get more on the average repair details when my boss gets back into town.

Would have to look into it an see if I need special tools and such unless it is just tune ups, oil changes and such. What do they do for broken lower ends and blown motors etc? Those can be time consuming and such unless they just do the cannibal thing.


Bust my knuckles man you know me to well heheh.

Carni....CALL ME man... I will find out what tools and WHO will supply them . Im sure I can get My boss to front them if not buy them and keep them at the lake.
When a motor blows...it blows and the rest is used for something else. If its fixable....then they will try from what I have seen. Lower ends anre fixed as best as can be fixed. On site naturally. Tune ups and oild changes is what we need....that and like ignition coils and stuff along that line. Torquing the heads water i=mpelleres yadda yadda.....I lost your # ....AGAIN....stupid phone.... call me when you can...Im sure we can figure out the best angle on it all.
