Tucson mechanic?

I bought a clean(ish) ‘69 F-250 and then exploded my lower back. Apparently 30 years in the Army is bad for your back….
Anyway, it’s going to be a few months before I can get under a truck. Anyone in the Tucson AZ area want to turn a wrench and make a buck? I’d rather pay a fellow enthusiast than a shop. Nothing extreme so far. Need to rebuild the rear Dana 60, replace leaf springs, replace all brake lines, new brake hardware/drums, exhaust manifold gaskets. Install seatbelts. Pretty easy. Holler if you have time and talent.
Thanks!

If you don't find someone here I would recommend talking to people at a car show to find a good mechanic.
