[AJD] Robert's Car Repair

[Michael Ostrander]

Mike-
That backlog is unnecessary to get a rebuild of a common carb though Robert
is a wonderful man.  Doug Burrey will rebuild your carb and will do it
within 5 weeks.  I checked his backlog today.  His address is 12426 Clayton
Road, Monroeville, IN  46773.  You can speak with him first if you want at
260-623-2104.  He is an honest rebuilder and will be less expensive than
Robert.  He and Robert are good friends and help one another.

Thanks to all who responded... the post delay got me.  I posted my request
Tuesday
morning a little after nine am central... and got a double handful of
replies in the late
afternoon telling me Robert's web site was up and running fine.  This is
definitely not
the place to report a power outage if you're on a respirator!!

Anyway, I talked to the folks at Robert's about a rebuild on my DLTX-34 and
they
advise the current turnaround time is 14-16 weeks... and the backlog is
growing, not
getting smaller.  I know that Robert's get's 1st class recommendations here,
but the
thought of waiting three to four months to get my carb back is painful.  I'd
sure
appreciate any recommendations on other rebuilders who do good work and
might
have a better turnaround time.  TIA
