Good Shop in Santa Cruz / San Jose Area

turboocco · 08-10-2009, 05:23 PM

Can anyone recommend a good shop in the Santa Cruz or San Jose areas? I'm looking at buying a 1st-gen Cummins (1992 4x4) and I need to find a shop to give it a pre-purchase inspection. The truck is located off of HWY-17 between Santa Cruz and San Jose. I've seen that there are some shops people recommend in Peninsula, East Bay and North Bay areas, but none directly in the Santa Cruz or San Jose area. Due to my busy schedule and the seller's busy schedule it's going to be hard to find a time soon to take the truck to these further shops, so I'm hoping to find a shop that is in the Santa Cruz or San Jose area. I'd also be up for paying one of the forum members for their time if they would be willing to do the inspection. Any help would be appreciated!

Hi,

I used to live in santa cruz and had good look with Evolution Automotive over on the westside. The owner is a diesel fan and owns a 98'. Good guys!
