Mechanic Needed

I'm giving my son a 1993 Cutlass Convertible for his birthday. I've gone through the car mechanically and replaced or repaired a number of items. Unfortunately, he's not familiar with the mechanics of the car so I'm trying to find him a good and 'trusted' mechanic in the Atlanta area. If anyone knows of one I'd appreciate the contact info.
Thanks

Thanks, but no. I took the wings off the car earlier this year.

What I always tell people is to go to a few of the local auto parts stores and ask them who they take their cars to. After a while, the same name or place will start popping up.

What Chip said.

Also check with Dixie Olds Club folks www.dixieoldsclub.com . You may find someone who worked at Ed Voyles or one of the other big ATL Olds dealers.

Cool.

Can you adopt me? I'd like a '69 442 convertible. Any color is fine, but I prefer red with a white top. I'll settle for #2 condition. Thank you.

Seems I've ventured into the Comedy Central forum. Having said that, I'll be happy to adopt you and buy you a '69 442, what ever color you want. If you're willing to take care of me when I get old and wipe the oatmeal from my chin.
