Oregon Corvair Repair

Post by jimbrandberg »

A fellow in Eagle Point, OR needs help getting his LM Corvair running better. He's spent $9000 working on it himself and can't get it running good. It doesn't make sense for it to come here regardless of how swell I make myself sound on my website. Any ideas? Thanks,

Hi Jim, I sent you contact information, via e-mail, for Rex Johnson in Salem, Oregon. He's a top-tier Corvair mechanic.

I would agree. 100%
Rex is probably the best in Oregon at this time.
He is in the Salem area, which is about a 4 to 4.5 hour drive from Eagle Point, depending on which route you take.
