Re: Any reliable corvette shops in the CA bay area?

However, as Jeff says, if you have just bought the car the very best thing you could do for it is to ship it to Marc for a thorough going over. Your ZR-1 is, after all, more than 30 years old. I understand of course that may not be in your budget, but if you plan to keep the car a good while and if you can do it financially, I would strongly urge you to do so. I did that when I bought my 19,000 mile '95 in 2012 and it was the best (very reasonably priced) money I could have spent (although I admittedly live fairly close to his shop, so no big shipping charge to deal with). He changed all the fluids, changed the serp belt (hanging on by a couple threads), checked everything and made sure it was running right. He found issues that I would never have even thought to ask about, and even found a hidden car alarm installed, which I had him remove. When I got the car back it was running perfectly and continued to do so for many years. Until of course I sent it back to him for his 510 HP package and then it ran even better! Good luck with your new ZR-1!--Bob
