Default Any good mobile mechanics?

Hi guys I have a wrecked wrx sitting at a friends house. Im looking for someone to drop the transmission, diff, harness, and everything else I would need for an auto to manual swap for my 97 Impreza. I don’t want to take the wrx to a shop due to the cost of taking the car and bring it back. Also hoping if anyone could recommend me a good shop that could swap the 97 I’m located in IE.

You'll asking a lot for a mechanic to do in someone's driveway.

Agreed. I can't imagine a mechanic would do a job that big in a driveway for less than they would in a shop where they have available things such as a lift that makes all that so much quicker and easier.

Good point I’ll just have to send it to a shop anyways.
