Default Chicago Area Cobra Mechanic Needed

Looking for a good mechanic in the Chicago area who knows Cobras. Would be great if a BDR guy but will take anyone with Cobra experience.

Thanks for any input!

I've trusted Modern Muscle in Plainfield.
Ask for Brad. Metro Chicago is a huge area, so you should be good results.
Also, there is a Windy City Cobra forum, but it is rarely active.

Before the invention of covered mechanics belt buckles we all used to wear our belts to the side (a la Greaser look) saves paint and possibly getting fired. https://www.sullivanuniforms.com/uni...kaAiSaEALw_wcB

A lot of Guitar and Bass players wear their buckles off to the side as well still.
