I recently purchased a 92 GT and am new to the site. I need help finding a good reliable tech that can do the things I am unable to do. I have oil leaks (rear Main) and need a new clutch, motor, trans mounts, etc. I am hoping someone knows or can recommend a ford tech in my area or near it. I live in Pasadena CA,.

Thank you

Any tech worth his salt is not using this site looking for work
Be ready to pay out the nose for a qualified Ford tech in So Cal
Most will be employed at the local dealers
Most are way beyond your 1992 in terms of qualifications
They would pass your job on to the youngsters
Good luck

My advice would be to hit a car show or find a car club near you and inquire about someone to do the work for you.

Actually, I found a very reputable mechanic in Pasadena CA who knows his mustangs and doesn't try to oversell you. He explains what should be done first and what can wait if you are on a budget. Thanks for the advice about car clubs!
