Alternate shops on Long Island?
Pretty much what the title says. I'm on Long Island and looking for a Delorean-friendly place to get work done on my car. I know the answer most people will give of Sayville, but I'm looking for alternatives. If anyone has any recommendations, I'd appreciate it. Thanks!

There have been individuals on the Island who would do work on Deloreans but I haven't heard of any of them doing any for a long time. Your choice is to use PJ Grady or do your own work or find a shop that would work on your Delorean but not have any experience with them. Most owners envy Delorean owners who happen to be close to PJ Grady. He has a very good reputation with very few complaints.

Thanks for the info, but unfortunately he's not an option for the work I'm looking to get done. Hence why I'm looking for alternatives.

It might help if you specify the type of work you want to do. There are lots of other owners on LI; maybe you coukd meet at a tech session?

Sure. The main things I need are: Brakes, new tires, fix a coolant leak, get the air conditioning working. Those are my top priorities. However, I don't think everything could be handled at a tech session. Further, I don't have a driveway or garage (or tools or full knowledge) to do this work myself.Originally Posted by jackb

These are all basic services that PJ Grady could perform with their eyes closed. Is there a reason you believe that they are not an option?
Either way, everything you listed could be performed by any repair shop, they really are not "Delorean specific" like adjusting and aligning the doors, for example. You could also find a Volvo shop to service the car as well.
