    I am curious about belt service price esp here in Florida. I have 1988.5 TR with 18K miles. My last mechanic died of Covid. The belt is likely overdue. I believe in the past it was 5-10K (dollars) and the mechanic was an old timer who was able to do the job without completely dropping the subframe. I am hunting for a shop- indie mechanic hopefully. Willing to travel to the coast- either coast- heck if the price has climbed 10K I can vacation in Italy and put the car in one of those preservative bubbles.....

    No one can properly do the job without dropping the sub frame. There is a lot more involved then slapping on two new belts.

    Mr Feinberg refused the job.....said he only works on newer Ferraris......kind of weird that he has a TR on his website, but it is a free country.
    And I have watched the videos, I understand it is a big job. If it is not done properly engine is toast. I have owned this car since 1995.

    I would call Wade you won’t regret it. I can’t imagine it would be terribly expensive to send him your car and trust me the job will be done correctly with no BS.

    I would also recommend Wade Williams. He did my 30K on my TR and car runs great!! He is really very good at this stuff.

    Other than a photo of a Boxer, I can't see any refererences or photos of any TR. Last I heard, they stopped doing older cars (pre-360) about two years ago...Anyhow, if you wanted a half-assed job, this would not be the shop for you anyhow...
