He has done quite a bit of work for me on several different motors. I have known him for 20 years or more. No real problems on any of the work. I speak only for myself .

Never heard of him either, but what a great way to put out the word when you get ripped off.

Gotta be careful with accusations down here. Everybody knows about the slander and defamation trap. Lawyers especially.
Wiley.....maybe get your name off of this.

IF anybody got ripped off..Its way too easy to badmouth some one on the internet..I have asked the guy who posted this for details..No answers..As I said, Bernie has done major work for me, over a long period of time...He aint perfect, but given the parts situation here, and the limited rescources he has done well by me...

Given what we know about Baja and our faith in mechanics, isn't there some sort of Virgen de la Mechanica to pray to?

And what about certified mechanics schools in Mexico, they have prepatories for fishermen?

Hah! Your chicken sacrifice reminds me of that legendary VW mechanic called "Chicken Bones". What a hoot that gringo rascal was...and I wonder if he survived his last 'event' in Baja.




I do what the voices in my tackle box tell me.
