Looking for Mechanic references for Seattle area

As the topic of my post states... I'm looking for a few good locale mechanic recommendations to work on the 'Z'... A lot of the simple to moderately hard stuff I can pretty much tackle (I thknk)

There's a mechanic on the Eastside in Kirkland, Wa I'd like to use... but since his shop is so small, he's always booked... If I can't find a good recommendation.. I'm really tempted to contact Z car Garage in San Jose, and discuss the possibility of shipping the car to them for some major engine and suspension work

Thanks for the input
