Any body in Norfolk/Virginia Beach, VA area that can work on Rear End?

JUST bought (as in this week) a 67, with what is supposed to be 3.23 limited slip.

Leaking like a sieve around the pinion seal.

Anybody know of anyone around the Norfolk/Virginia Beach/Chesapeake, VA area that can work on a GM rear?

Thanks,

D

I used to live in the Norfolk, VA area when my dad (Oldsguy) was in the Navy. It is a neat place. Good luck. Post some pics for us when you can.

Thanks on info. I've contacted, he says he does lot of Older Oldsmobiles, and can handle. Just waiting to get registration changed over now, and he is my first stop afterwards.

Thanks again!!!!

You're welcome. You'll see the car pictured below sitting outside Ray Hauser's shop. He took it off my hands after I removed the engine. It's an old-school type of shop...really layed back. Make sure you check out his Cutlass drag car while you're there. Good luck and let me know how it goes.

Looking for a good engine mechanic in the Norfolk va area.

I have a olds 455 with a 750 Holley carb. It's built .30 over with 11:5:1 compression. Mild cam with a TH350 trans. I am looking for a good engine guy to tune it. It shakes and runs rough. Can anyone help a young Sailor out. Thanks.
