you know dawson, that could be a good idea.
for years now people have been asking abought who knows a brit car wrench or 
such things.
for myself doing my own work on the car is 1/2 the hobby and what makes a 
ride a reward-but that,s just me.
when i was a kid, in my teens i was big into the datsun 510s. after a while 
seems every weekend i was doing a head gasket or clutch job for somebody, i 
would come close to saying that every 510 in petaluma and novato went thru 
my hands at one time or another. it was fun-it was also 30 years ago.

bet if you asked tchreek (nobbc webmistress) she would be happy to add this 
nobbc approved shop list to the website-
we all need to give her a continued thanks for the great job she does with 
that site.
(now there,s a thought, nobbc approved sighns at service shops)
