Hi. I am the proud driver of a '90 Coupe ... it's my daily ride. I will be moving to Carolina Beach, NC (near Wilmington, NC) in early July. Up here in NJ, I've had difficulty finding reliable (and reasonable) repair shops or service technicians. In fact, my local "Goodwrench" Chevy dealer won't even touch it. So ... I am looking for some leads. Does anyone know of a reliable, reasonable repair shop in the Wilmington, NC, area that works on older model Vettes?

I'll keep looking. I guess the best thing to do is to buy the tools and manuals and learn to do things ourselves. But some things are best left to experts, particularly with these finicky older Vettes. I am going to check out Jeff Gordon Chevrolet in Wilmington. I figure a NASCAR driver's dealership might know what they are doing.
