North Bay service recommendations?
I am a new Cobra owner in Petaluma, Sonoma county. Does anyone have any recommendations on any shops in the North Bay /Sonoma county area that have experience with or are knowledgeable about Cobra replicas?
I would like to have some idea of where I can find service for both the drive train aspects as well as the body/chasis aspects of fiberglass Cobra replicas. I think to find someone with body/chasis experience for these cars is the most difficult task(since the drive train aspects of the car are comon to a lot of other muscle cars and street rods).
Any recommendations or experiences would be most helpful.
Thanks, Don

Hi Don,
Denbeste is located in Windsor. They're a Shelby dealer, but you might want to call them and see if they can recommend a shop in your area.

You might take a run over to Infinion Raceway. There are some good race shops on site there for chassis work as well as engine.

I've used Performance Shock at Infinion and they do good work. Bruce calibrated my suspension travel and set me up with new Koni 8212's and springs.

There is also a shop in Benica that restores Cobra's and other cars too. Having a moment senior and can not remember their name ...

Everything is just a bridge away, isn't it? What's the difference, you drop your car off for a month and come back with a Brinks truck full of dough to get it out of hock.

A month? You mean for an oil change only, right? |

I use Tri Star Automotive in Santa Rosa. I've been pleased. They seem to specialize in performance and classic cars.
