[Shotimes] Northwest (seattle) SHO Mechanics...New to the SHO club

[combustion.chamber@attbi.com]

Hi guys,
             I am a new member of the SHO family, and while VERY excited, am alittle scared.  I know 
they are tough engines and all of that, but I have NEVER owned a Ford product.  All I have ever 
driven were Japanese cars to this date...And yes the SHO is alittle Japanese, but that isn't the 
point.  While I am mechanically inclined...for the most part...I am wondering if it might just be 
smarter for me to have my major maintenance done on the car.  That being the infamous 60K 
service (t-belt, hoses, lash?) and going from there. Car is a '92 MTX with 110K and is squeak and 
rattle free, and driven by the owners wife.  

That brings me to this question...does anyone know of a decent and affordable SHO mechanic in 
the Pacific Northwest (Seattle) where I am?  There is a NW club, which I am joining but I have to 
wait for approval from the list manager (not your problem I know), and I am not sure when that will 
happen.  I'd like to start out on the right foot with this thing as I pick it up later this week and put 
it in the shop for a going over, or do it myself.  I've always wanted one, and now here is my 
chance...  

Any advice is greatly appreciated!

thanks in advance,
Syd
