If I could give more than 5 stars I would. Carter Is by far the most precise mechanic I have encountered. This man not only is a mechanical genius but can explain his vast knowledge In a digestible fashion that does not leave one in confusion.
Found him trough yelp and other review sites that provide him superb reviews, I was wary at first. But after e spoke and messaged for over an hour about a vehicle and what exactly his checklist is to inspect it for a purchase. He blew me away with his mechanical proficiency.
Walked me trough every step of his tried and true process to evaluate the safety and stoutness of the car. Once you contact him he calls the seller and takes the wheel to sniff out inconsistencies, he found a few.
Being on the east coast looking at a car online is a risky gamble. All I really had to go on was a few pictures and the morality of the seller that had me questioning his honesty. Carter used his many years of experience dealing with classics and suggested me to keep on looking. There are tons of snakes out there but Carter seems to be a Honey Badger that takes them on in a very professional but kind manner.
If I was in the Pehonix area he would be my go to mechanic for any issue. Honest, affordable and intelligent.
THANK YOU!!!
