an introduction...

Hey everyone,

My name is TK and i've been living in Calgary for the past couple months now -just moved from Ontario.
I'm a roofer by trade and i can't stress enough how much i enjoy living/working out here.

Anywho, just thought i'd introduce myself.

-TK

p.s. Whos' got the best Mechanic in Calgary? Driving around, i see alot of shops but i don't who is any good. A referral would be appreciated as i need a certifiction to change my licence over. Any help?

Welcome to the site & the province

I lived in Calgary from 1951 to 2003 until I was done with it.

Where are you from in Ontario ?

Mechanic for what ?

My Mechanic when needed is in Red Deer.
It is his own shop.

He can do your out of province inspection as he is an authorized inspection facility.

Hey Mil1ion,

Thanks for the welcome.
Actually, i'm from Cambridge which is 45 minutes west of T.O. [1977-2006].
So far, i can't say i miss a single thing about the old haunts.

Thanks for the referral i really appreciate it, but Red Deer is a wee bit of a haul.

A guy i was chatting w/ today mentioned a Certiguard shop (just off Deerfoot in the S.E.) so i guess i'll check him out sometime this week.
After thats over/done i'll have to hunt down a body shop to match up my cap to the rest of my rig.

Thanks again. ttyl,
-tk


ps: I think your website is broke ("Could not locate remote server")

We are not set-up for Out of Province inspections in my shop, we use the boys at Trio Motors near the franklin Canadian Tire for all of our Classic Inspections.
