RE: [DML] Delorean Owner

["John Hervey" <john@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Eric, 
I have shops all over that US that work on DeLoreans and some of the shop
owners even have a DeLorean. I can sort in my computer either by Zip code or
area code to help you find a good delorean shop.

No.no..good information.  Thank you very much. I do agree that you (we) are
our own best mechanic (if we prefer to that type of work).  But...for me,
it's not about money or doing the work myself -but it about my time.  My
time is very important to me (can't get it back), I personally don't want to
be under a hood (no disrespect).  PJ Grady:, I will definitely pursue that.
I will have to lookup the address.  It appears that's PJ's is the route I
will need to take for major issues, but I also appreciate the info about
firestone.  I will be contacting them for minor concerns.  Thank you.

  No offense but I've found that I am my best mechanic. I was afraid to
  work on the car when I first got it and now I do nearly everything
  myself. If money is a little tight you can save thousands of dollars
  by working on the car yourself. These cars are super easy to work on
  with the exception of one thing that I won't mention.

  Or if you can afford a monthly mechanic bill, I would definately deal
  with PJ Grady. Distance shouldn't be an issue if you can afford it.
  Just have the car shipped to him and have him do a complete overhaul.
  For oil changes and belts just bring it to your local Firestone. They
  do my alignments and tires on the Delorean and I've been happy thus
  far.

the N. VA area.....I am trying to find another good place.
