    I recently purchased a Ferrari 360 that needs hydraulics in the convertible top. Can anyone suggest a mechanic?

    Who owns this shop and what cars have they worked on for you or others you know personally?

    Thanks

    Haris Dzanic: His shop is basically 290 at Beltway 8. His number is 832-687-3183,

    He worked at FOH for 25 years. He has a shop full of Ferrari/lambo. Honest and meticulous in my experience. Go see and talk to him and draw your own thoughts is my recommendation.

    Thanks for your help. I have taken my 360 to Sphere. Mark did an excellent job, but I questioned his rates and repair costs. Was hoping for an alternative.

    No one! My bad - I was thinking he was in DFW, not Houston.

    Vintage Car Solutions was in the Alara Space for a time.
    Not sure if that's still the case, I know their old shop has closed he bought a new building.

    I actually did confirm the latest web location has them (VCS) on West 11th..

    Mark at Sphere has done work for me also.

    Likewise Moorespeed in Austin, and Brian Crall is over there too.

    Good luck in your search!!
