mechanic in chicago? '66 dodge charger
-
I am in Chicago, and just bought a 1966 dodge charger. I need a mechanic that is capable on working on that kind of car. Do you know of any here? I don't need a lot done. Basically, the car runs, but it stalls sometimes. Seems to need a tune up or timing etc. Second, the head lamp on one light won't flip up. I don't even necessarily need to rebuild that motor right now. I just want to have it in the flipped up position if it's going to stick. Finally, when I try to start the car, sometimes it starts, sometimes it does nothing, total silence, and sometime it just clicks successively and quickly. So I think I am having a starter/battery/selanoid issue.
Any tips on finding a mechanic? Very grateful for your advice! -

There's a nice lil garage in LaGrange IL called Harders that could prpobably fix it up.
