My hot rod mechanic fell down a set of stairs and is real banged up. We had just ordered a Holley 875 to put on my car. Now I have nobody to do the job. Anyone out there who is qualified to do this job? Is this something pretty much any mechanic could do?

Looking for someone who is really good at adjusting car doors to fit properly. I have a couple that are 1/2 low at the back. I believe they were not mounted properly and it is NOT a sagging frame problem.

I have a 47 Merc 2ton I'm working on. There's quite a bit of play in the steering box. It doesn't really bother me but I'm thinking I'm going to have to get this truck certified down the road.

My car now has a saginaw 700 variable ratio stering box. It drives well and steers nice at all sppeds but the turning radius could be improved.
