Moving to Northern Virgnia, need recommendations

[Mars55]

Hello all - I expect to be moving to the DC Metro area sometime this year. I picked up a '68 1600 last year and I'm in need of some help. First, a early search for housing doesn't turn up many garages. Where do you keep your toys? I'm talking about the Arlington-Alexandria area and parts of Fairfax Co.

 

My car is in pre-paint stage and will need a full brake and suspension re-build. Your suggestions for good shops will be appreciated.

 

Thanks!!

Do you happen to be military, reserves, retired, or DoD civilian?  I use the auto hobby shops on fort myer, fort belvoir, and Bolling AFB.   

 

Welcome to NOVA!

 

cheers,

 

Don

Oh, and the national Capitol chapter of the CCA puts on a number of DIYs throughout the year. I haven’t been to one, but I hear they’re great.

Some of us actually use our garages for car storage and working on them. My townhouse has no yard so no lawnmower or weed wacker needed.

Lots of housing around here has garages, and some of us actually use them for working on our cars...
