718Miata Posted April 26, 2019 Share #1 Posted April 26, 2019 I’m looking for a mechanic specializing in old Zs who can properly sort, service and fix anything that needs fixing or updating on the Z I recently purchased at Mecum. Any recommendations? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zedyone_kenobi Posted April 26, 2019 Share #3 Posted April 26, 2019 The ONLY garage I know in Houston that specializes in old Z's is awesome Z. He has been working on them for decades. I have never had any work done there, but Frank Castleman use to have his work done there I believe. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
718Miata Posted April 26, 2019 Author Share #4 Posted April 26, 2019 I’m reluctant to use Awesome Z because the prior owner of the car said he paid them $5000 for a lot of work, and not everything was done correctly. Have you heard anything about SZRpro off 1960? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patcon Posted April 26, 2019 Share #5 Posted April 26, 2019 You might want to PM Zedyone about looking your car over for you. I don't know if he is busy or not but he is closer than me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hardway Posted April 27, 2019 Share #9 Posted April 27, 2019 @Zedyone_kenobi Would you be able to look at a Z that a fellow owner just purchased near you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zedyone_kenobi Posted April 29, 2019 Share #10 Posted April 29, 2019 I sent him a PM and reached out. What seems to be the issue. I will do whatever I can to help you out. May have to be in the evenings when the kiddos are asleep, but lets work out a time to meet! Send me a PM of the issues you are having and let us start from there! ? Always happy to help out a fellow Z guy! ? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

718Miata Posted May 6, 2019 Author Share #12 Posted May 6, 2019 This is a long shot, but has anyone in Houston used Bobby Harting at Tech Auto Maintenance, 37 Waugh Dr, Houston, TX 77007? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
