why are you asking this question on an architecture forum?!

i have had good luck finding a mechanic through this though: http://www.cartalk.com/content/mechx/find.html

is a helpful resource to find dependable vendors in LA.

well...I suppose it's odd, but am guessing that there are quite a few archinectors in LA, driving not-so-new Toyotas or Hondas, so I thought it was worth a shot for the feedback!

Thanks for the link B4arch.

coquette, which area are you in, i drive an old toyota myself and have 2 good mechanics - one in glendale the other in pasadena

i can "recommend" my toyota mechanic, he works on my toyota camry.
His name is "Andy" at Bert's Garage on Franklin and Cahuenga in Hollywood.

Additionally, telling the Hertz rental guys a few blocks away near Hollywood Blvd and Highland Ave. that your "car is at Bert's Garage for repairs" gets you a fat discount on rentals. It turns out this works even if your car isn't really at Bert's Garage.

this topic is certainly more engaging than the Zionist bastard thread.

i'm looking for any trustworthy mechanic in los angeles works on VWs. been srewed by 2 already.

s.o.d.- I live in K-town, so the glendale mechanic might be closer. lemmee know! thanks.

Marlin- thanks, this is really helpful.

while we're at it...

I need a reasonably priced hairstylist...

(in LA)

anita @ fandango in silverlake - depends what you mean by reasonable & the length of your hair - she charges $50 for women medium length hair and does a great job - excellent color as well

greeneyes-

i like floyd's barbershop on santa monica in west LA. just west of the 405 on SM blvd a few blocks.

my gf liked shampoo lounge on pico just west of where the 10 crosses it on the santa monica/LA border

I always had my vw fixed at Joy Automotive in santa monica, cloverfield and pico. ask for cesar.

thanks ckl

Thanks

greeneyes-

ask for Chevonne at Rudy's Barbershop on Sunset, or the Rudy's downtown at the Standard. Call first to check if she is working the day you wanna get your hair cut. I will set you back $20-$26 plus tip.

I second Cesar at Joy Automotive. He is a magician with crappy cars.

Im at Carson and I always see this on the way..
Auto Parts Los Angeles

Im not really sure if it's a mechanic type..
Maybe I should check it myself.. XD

Wow I remember when this thread first appeared. Hard to imagine that she/he would still need a Toyota mechanic... Could be wrong. It may have been parked on Sepulveda for four years.
How did you find it - searched for 'way-old thread'?

oops - KTown. It could have been parked on Pico for 50 months

Or in front of the BCD House on Western!

Its such a shame man! cant help myself laugh..! XD
what the - its has been for years..? darn it.. I think I should get my eyes checked. I already have four!

Maybe thats what you call a stupid person? I felt so embarasssssed.. I still cant help myself but laugh.. XD
