mechanic in the Collingwood area?
« on: June 30, 2008, 18:13:57 »
I have a 1970 280 SL that needs body, interior and engine work.  I'm looking for a good trustworthy mechanic fairly close to my area.  I live in Collingwood, Ontario, Canada.  Can anyone recommend one?

Thanks.

John

If anybody has looked at a map, Dr. Benz is nowhere near Collingwood...

BUT being in the same province and country, John, "it's worth a trip".

And if you're going to look him up on the members list, or with a search, it is "Benz Dr.", not "Dr. Benz".  That should help.
