    Any independent shops in the Phoenix area for Ferrari? Coming from Dave Helms shop in Colorado so I have high standards.

    Or do I have to go to LA if I wish to go away from FOScottsdale?

    Thanks.

    There are 2 great independents in the Phoenix area. If you do a search for their names, you will get their numbers. Either one is brilliant and fair.

    Alex Traverso

    Andy Falbo

    Alex is in the Airpark and Andy is in Fountain Hills.

    Do you know where? I just moved to that area to be closer to work (VERY close to his new location)? I'd love to stop by. Copterjon and I had a conversation about his moving but I didn't know he would be that close to me.

    Andy is now doing a major on my 81 GTSi, what a pleasure to be working with a true professional that really loves what he does! His shop is so clean, you could eat off the floor.

    702 W. Melinda just West of GT Car Parts which is strategically very smart as he will have access to their huge inventory of parts to facilitate repairs

    I've driven by, never knew what his shop was called.

    Is it Phoenix Engine or the building south. I've met Alex briefly but know his son through Copterjon.

    Picked up my 81 GTSi from Andy yesterday. Completed major, even had the car detailed (at no charge!) Drove her back to Payson, hit 160 on the speedo briefly, ran perfect! He sure does excellent work, and what a pleasure to do business with.
