Default I need a shop/person to do some work. Ohio

My name is David. Im not new, this just a new username because I havent been on here in about 2 years. I have a 1996 trans am and I need some help putting it back together. I havent driven the car in 3 years but its been in my dads garage. I need someone who can help re-assemble it for me. It needs a new opti put in and everything infront re-assembled. I can have it towed and buy all needed parts and obviously I would pay for your services. OR Does anyone know a good shop around Columbus that wouldnt charge an arm and a leg to do the work. If its someone and not a shop, you'd have to be reputable and have the knowledge from doing it before lol. I just need someone who can help me out, I miss driving my car!!! If you have any questions PM me if needed. Thank you very much!!

Is the opti the only thing that needs changed or is the whole front of the motor apart (timing cover)? If it is just putting the opti back on, water pump back on, crank pulley and hooking up all the hoses you are probably looking at like 100-150 for someone to do it. I am about 2 hours away and would be willing to come down and do it if all the parts are there before I get there, ie no missing bolts, parts, or seals. PM me and i will give you my number. This is a failry straight forward swap. LMK
