Sadly, I'm too busy to work on my own bus. Work has taken over my life and the old girl needs some upkeep (tune up). I can't believe I'm typing this, but can anybody recommend a trusted mech. in the Pasadena/Glendale area?

JIHAD built all the suspension and engine in my '55. I wouldn't trust that stuff to just anyone.

all the info you need is on the post above yours.

It takes a chapter in a book to describe how to find the shop or a quick phone call to understand "turn right at the 3rd street, the one with no streetsign". It's kinda like a rally getting there the first time.
