Great Mechanic I found in Ocala Florida

[Tanthor@domain.elided]

Hey all,
       Scarlet broke down and left me stranded on the interstate.  The 
electric fuel pump went out.  I called around and found a Mercedes specialist 
who said he knows Alfa's but no one else in his shop does and he didn't work 
anymore in the garage.  He told me to call Luigi's.
       I could barely understand the man because of his thick Italian accent. 
 But that made me feel better for some odd reason anyway.  LOL Anyway, He had 
the car for one day and had a rebuilt pump in it.  I asked him to give the 
car a once over.  When I got there to pick it up he had fixed my turn 
signals, replace one of my horns with a spare he had for $7.00 (which was 
great since neither worked) and had fixed a few other odds and ends on the 
car with no other parts charge.  He had at least one parts Alfa behind his 
shop.  Used to work in Italy for one of the Italian car makers, don't 
remember which, and then in New York for ten years before he came here.  
       He was actually kind of affectionate towards my ugly little baby.  We 
talked about Alfa's in general for a little bit and he really does like them. 
He only charged $100 for labor.  Which to me was a good deal.  Only down 
side, he doesn't read or write English so he can't process credit cards.  It 
was late Friday and he said if I didn't have the cash just to take the car 
and bring the cash by the following week.
How cool is that!

Anyway, If you need a mechanic for your Alfa in my neck of the woods, I 
suggest this guy.
