Need RX7 mechanic in the Reno NV area

Hi Everyone:
We are leaving So. Cal and moving to Reno. Unfortunately the shop we are using in So. Cal may not finish some build work in time (all rx7 shops seemed to be way backup),
new engine harness, Haltech ecu, fuel system, v-mount intercooler.....
We would like to find a good RX7 mechanic in the Reno area to help us if we need to finish this build on our own or have him complete the work.

If anybody know a good mechanic there please let me know.

Why not just leave your car at the shop until they're done with it?

My FD is currently at a shop in Escondido, CA for a massive build/job. I towed it there from my home in Virginia and I'll drive out to tow it home when they're done.

If the shop is solid than traveling a bit for quality work is time well spent in the long run.

That is our plan if we cant find someone in Reno.
But I would like to find a good mechanic near reno for this and future work.

Curious what do you use to tow your FD, a trailer you own, one you rent????

I bought an enclosed trailer and used that for the task. You could absolutely just rent a uhaul trailer too though. Owning an enclosed will be useful for track days (bikes and cars), moving, random extra storage, etc., etc.
