ALIGHTMENT SHOP..????

[zzzona]

Anyone know of a good alignment shop in the Clearwater area? I lowered my car a while back and never had it aligned..I have been hesitant to take it somewhere and have them screw something up....
Thanks Dave

There is only one shop in Pinellas County that I will go to for 4 wheel alignment. They charge by the hour and are not cheap, but IT IS DONE RIGHT Bay Area Auto Doc, 12204 66th. Street No. Largo, 535-0755. If you want inexpensive, the Allied Tires at the corner of Ulmerton Rd. / Seminole Blvd. has a good tecnician. But for my Vette, only the best will do, and Auto Doc is among the very best.

Whats his hourly rate and about how long does it take?

I need to get the 87 there too.

Thanks...
I talked to the shop and he said they charge $70 an hour. The average time is 2 hours for a vette unless it has had some extensive frontend work, then it could be longer.
I will be bringing my car in tomorrow morning so I will let you know how it went...

You won't be disappointed. 4-wheel alignment is something that cannot be done on flat rate. There are too many variables and where you have done some modifications it could affect the amount of time required.
