Hey guys. I'm used to doing my own repair work on my classic cars, but my newly-acquired 2006 Stang might require a bit more than my backyard mechanic skills. Any suggestions on a good, and reasonably priced repair/performance shop in the South Orange/Maplewood/Union vicinity that really knows our Mustangs?
Much appreciated,
Tomm

Hi. At the moment nothing specific, but she has a few miles on her and I want to find someone I can trust for general maintenance. I'd also like to make sure she's running at peak performance... I'm just not familiar with maintaining cars under 25 years old!
Thanks
Tomm

There's a good Ford Dealer in West Caldwell I believe that my friend uses. In terms of performance shops. I know a bunch of them further south and a very good Ford Dealership in Toms River called Downs. I drive all the way down there for service! but its worth it!

Verner Cadby Ford in West Caldwell. Best shop around. I service all 4 of my family's Fords there. Same place we bought them too. Great group of guys. They do everything from 1965 classics to 2010+ stuff there

it may be a bit of a ride for you but my local mechanics are GREAT. Progressive auto care OakRidge and Al's Spirit in Jefferson are the only ones who do my shop work.
