Default Good Mechanic in the Deep Southeast?

Found out a few weeks ago that the long time mechanic we have been using for the past 10 years in the Northeast is selling his shop. Wondering if anyone knows a good mechanic (or if you are one) in the deep southeast as we live in New Brighton. Just looking for someone who does some tune ups from time to time and things like brakes. Thanks in advance for any tips.

When Calgarians say deep SE, they're generally reffering to all those communities south of 130th Ave on Deerfoot.

For the southwesterners, the Husky in Woodlands has a shop, and the work they've done for me has been honest and well priced.

I understand that and only posted the business name for someone to consider if nothing was found closer to where people live.

Didn't intend to be mysterious. Sometimes they are very busy and not really looking for work.

Are you talking about Peter? The one on Elbow Dr? If so, then I approve of this message! Great guy.

Peter closed his busniess there awhile ago. Too bad, he did great work.
