    Hey Taco World,

    I'm looking for a recommendation for a mechanic (ideally in Berkeley CA) or greater Bay Area for repairs and mods to my 1st gen. Additionally open to any Taco enthusiasts and meet up groups which are active and good places to learn repairs. I'm down to get my hands dirty just need some support to get started.
