wrench needed in LA

[look 171]

Hello, Not yet a Z owner. Looking at a 240 that sat in a garage for 10 years but need a local mechanic to help with a few things. I am in the northern part of Los Angeles, Pasadena, or Glendale. Thanks. I am not sure if this is the right place to post this?

Jeff, I'm in the hood (Eagle Rock-Mt.Washington) and would be happy to meet you. I do not fix cars for a living but I do help other Datsun Owners fix theirs. There is a shop in Pas I can recommend

Hey Victor,

Thanks for the quick reply. Tallk about beign in the hood. I am in Mt Washington. I am down the hill a little bit from that little school on top of the hill. Where about are you? I have seen that Nissan shop on the corner of Ave. 50 and San Rafel Drive. What do you think of them? who's that in Pasadena?

I'm on the other side of Division street, hanging off the hill with a view of the 2 frwy, forrest lawn and Griffith Park. I talk to that younger fellow at that shop and I guess he might be ok. The fellow in pas, I'm absolutly sure of, a true Datsun Specialist who's worked on several of the Roadsters in our group, with proper respect.

Wow, you are hanging off the hill. It even looks like a few houses on your street slid off the hill ...

BTW, I'll be in LA the week after next for a cruise out of San Pedro ...

Yes I am. You gotta be a f'n genius to buy a cantilever home in a earthquake, fire and landslide area! I have NO front yard, step out my door and you in the street. The near vertical back yard is a hoot to.

Victor,

Are you some where near Jessica St. near that little park off division? I work on some projects up there where you can see the 2 and Eagle Rock Blvd.

The Pasadena shop it is . No use going anywhere else if they're specialist. Love to go to breakfast and a drive. Only problem is that I don't have a Z. I am hoping soon. We just had a baby 6 weeks ago. Time is a little tight. There's no reason why we can't sit down and have some food and a beer sometimes and meet some of the local members.

The reason why I want the 240 is that when my little boy's old enough, we can work on the Z together and if he's a good he can keep the car. If the Z's that much fun, I might keep it for myself.

Next time you guys go for a drive, can I tag along with my old beat up and way under powered Miata? I'll try to PM you my phone #.

There's nothing like like having no neighbors in LA. The narrow street keeps the bad guys out.

[Victor Laury]

The homeboyz think my street is a public park. They leave me the broken beer bottles, used condoms and broken crack pipes to enhance the area's ambience.

Gee, thanks guys....
