In LA, you have a wide variety of shops and mechanics that can do anything you need. NOW, the big question is what is your budget? depending on how bad off it is, you will spend thousands. Decide if you just want it running or do you want a used but like new, or do you want showroom. That will make the difference in what you have to spend. You don;t give any idea what is wrong with it so without more info, an intelligent answer can't be given..

I'm looking at a 79 T-Bird. It's been sitting in a barn for a while, but it is very solid. Drove it a bit, and it runs through the gears fine. Until reverse. It feels like it grinds in reverse, and sometimes has trouble reversing uphill. Is it the tranny, or maybe just funky fluid or clogged filter? Has a small gasket leak. Maybe a clogged cat? Really want a LTD body T-Bird, but the problem with reverse is making me wary of this otherwise nice car. 6 Answers

Car has <100k miles and has full tranny fluid.
