Default New to NorCal...Need help

Hey folks,

I've been on LS1tech for a few years now and just moved to Northern California. I'm arriving from Germnay and had to ship my 99 SS M6 non-operational due to a bad slave cylinder. So, I have to tow my car to a shop to get a new clutch (I want to do the whole system) and was hoping on some recommendations in the Richmond, CA area to have the work done. I think I know the clutch setup I want, I just need to get the parts installed. The vehicle should arrive soon at the Richmond port so I'm looking for some place close to that so I don't have a huge towing bill.

Thanks,
Scott

Yea, I didn't have a really good vibe about the area, I'm trying to see if there's someway for me to get it towed to synergy without actually having to get it myself..other wise I just might bring a ghat or two.

Well I wish I had to stop for gas in Richmond, but mine is getting towed. Should never have raced that vette on the Autobahn a week before I was set to ship it here.

You at Travis too?
