For the eighth year running, we again present our annual 2010 Corvette Fever Top Shops Directory. This directory makes it a little easier when you're trying to get your Corvette fixed. As always, the directory continues to be one of the most requested components of Corvette Fever. As in years past, we have continued to compile your recommendations over the last year into a directory we hope you'll refer to again and again, and as always, the updated directory will also be posted at www.corvettefever.com. These Corvette businesses range from full-blown restoration shops to places you can go to for routine day-to-day maintenance.
As in years past, some new shops have been added, along with the sender's comments.
Please continue to send your shop suggestions or unresolved issues to corvettefever.firstturn@sorc.com. Please include your name and location, as well as the name, address, phone number, and owner's name of the shop you recommend. Tell us why the shop deserves to be on the list for next year, or any problems you have encountered. As in the past, you can also nominate more than one shop if you've received exceptional service at several places.
Each year we get feedback from our readership, and thus this directory will continue to be a work in progress. Please note that all shops listed here have been recommended by fellow Corvette enthusiasts. Based on their experiences, these businesses should be trustworthy, but Corvette Fever accepts no responsibility or liability for any work they do. We will, however, continue to accept all information about unresolved problems our readers have and we reserve the right to remove any repeat offenders from the list.
