VW High Performance Engine Mechanic Wanted

Richmond CA

Description

I am looking for an independent mechanic to work on a 1957 VW Beetle. The engine has been modified for drag racing and I want to re- modify it for occasional street use, not a daily driver. I have a garage, but no tools to speak of. If you want to work in your garage it must be in the East Bay. I live in Point Richmond. Car Specs: 1957 VW - PERFORMANCE ENGINE - CUSTOM TRANSAXEL.
