Default Mechanic in Preston or Blackpool Area

Hi,

I am looking to get my clutch changed on my escort cosworth and I was wondering if anyone could reccomend any decent mechanics in the preston or blackpool area who could do it.

Cheers
Dan

Dan,

I'd recommend Fred Allcock in Preston, he does work for a very good friend of mine taking boxes out for them to repair...his no. is 01772 888605...

Hope you get on ok

Regards

Ian
