Mechanic in the Sacramento area

[SteveC]

I was wondering if anyone could advise me on where to take my toy in the Sacramento area for mechanical and service work. I have to take my Lotus to the bay area so I don't mind traveling a bit as long as the mechanic is knowledgeable and honest. I just picked up a '98 GTS and I would like a good going over before I start putting on any miles.

Thanks, Steve

Hi Steve, welcome to the site! Just a quick note from someone on the opposite coast....as a VCA member you'd be able to ask this question in the California regional section here on Viperclub.org and get more targeted responses.

Congrats on picking up a Viper!

Beleive it or not, one of the best Viper Techs out there is Randell Stowe at Folsom Lake Dodge in Folsom CA. He has helped me with both my street Vipers over the years as well as my Comp Coupe. He is a straight no BS kind of guy. He is also the shop forman there as well.DC is great too but its a long haul to LA from Sac. area.

Thanks CCBrian,

I took my new toy into Randell, nice guy and very knowledgeable. It looks like the car I bought is somewhat of a ****, the previous owner must have kicked the $hit out of it. Randell has been very helpfull in getting everything taken care of, the list that Randell has given me is damn long but with his help and not eating for 3 or 4 months I'm sure everything will get straightened out. One more note.. Randell spent a lot of his own time finding some good used parts for the car to save me a bit of money here and there, this is a mechanic that goes out of his way for his customers and I would have no hesitation recommending him to anyone else.

Again CCBrian..... Thaks

Glad to help...now take a look at our meeting this Saturday in the Norcal section. No need to bring your car-its supposed to be raining anyway. 10:00 am at the old Towe Museum. Looks like its going to be a good showing.Brian
