Comments: "They specialize in Corvettes of all vintage but are one of the very best I've ever seen working with late model computer cars. The ZR-1s I've seen him modify are spectacular (and I'm not easily impressed.) He's also honest and fair...a rare combination these days!"

Father and Son shop. Works on 1953-1967 only. No sharks, No C4s. INCREDIBLE inventory of parts. I buy all my parts from Doug and Cary Faber. They protect me from myself, never let me buy anything I don't need, or anything incorrect. They also trade out old parts, unused stuff, etc.

(310) 391-7108

Comments: "Great Corvette shop. Dick used to race Corvettes and has produces some really great "tuner" cars: The GS80 (C4 based), GS90 (ZR1 based) and Nassau Roadster (C4 based). He always has some great cars around the shop, including his midyear and 383 powered C4. He has personally worked on my cars when the mechanics were busy. They do meticulous work there. If they work on an A-Arm, it will be cleaned and painted when it goes back in the car. You also pay for their knowledge (about $60/hour), but they have the knowledge and tools needed. I have never had to take a car back for the same problem!" "They are extremely knowledgeable, helpful, informative and competent. I recently took my ZR-1 there and would strongly recommend the shop to anyone. As they can be somewhat pricey, make sure to get an estimate first."

Bob's AutoTech
2210 San Ramon Valley Boulevard
San Ramon, CA
510/831-1266

Comments: "Anyhow, when I moved to California, my boss recommended this guy. His rates  are competitive for an independent. He does not specialize in Corvettes, just  quality workmanship. He does have all the Vette tools though, I always ask,  and he always knows what is needed. He has never disappointed me and I've  never had a second call on a problem. (Even knows Vette brakes, fixed mine  when another independent and dealer could not!)"
