There's an air-cooled mechanic on the road from Newport, NH to Keene... I'm not sure exactly what the route is, but it's around where PC Connection is (or used to be?)... Perhaps someone on the list knows. I know nothing about the guy other than that he had a new type 1 super windshield *in stock* when my friend needed one. Also, if you can go across the LI Sound and consider NYC/Long Island as part of New England (yeah, right), there's a guy in Astoria/Woodside Queens one avenue/block north of Northern Boulevard around 43-46th Street. He has a little three-bay garage on a streetcorner there and his service was just excellent. First time I had him do any work, I dumped a type 1 on the sidewalk and told him whenever he could get to it (ate a valve) to let me know. In a week I had a new 1600 that ran like a top and everytime I brought it back for any work he'd fine-tune it up for me no charge (which was nice). I believe the guy's name is Valdo. Wish I still had his card... I tossed it when I moved to the Island. Maybe someone on the list also knows about him. He's just inside the city off the Triborough Bridge, so it's not a far trip from CT. Hope this helps someone... And if anyone knows any mechanics out on the Island, I'd love to know where they might be! Aaron __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Mail Plus - Powerful.
