      Good shop in Bay Area Ca to finish 68 ls1 camaro

      Well im just finishing up my build and in 10 days will no longer have a place to work on it (or store it for that matter) and there is no way i can finish it in that time, while trying to find a job, an appt and college full time.



      So my question is if any of you guys know a place that would first off understand what they were doing with a car like this, and do it reasonably quick, and unfortunately most important for a reasonable price ($10 an hour dosent stretch too far supporting yourself) I will be taking out a loan through my parents however i still have to pay it off.

      Also what needs to be done is for the rear end to be finished fitting and welded up, the wiring to be finished up, and general shake down things.


      Thanks guys,
      Brian

      Give Speed Merchant in San Jose a call. They should be able to button up whatever you need.

      Yea Im gonna head on over to see how much they would charge, considering a dyno tune was $600... but they certainly do have the know how to do it right.

      The only other places I know to talk to are Meanstreets Performance, Vince's shop (MrQuick) and posibly Gearhead garage in Sac. I know Vince does good work, not sure on Gearheads.
