Recommended E9 mechanics/shops in Massachusetts

[acat2002]

Does anyone in the New England region have any suggestions/endorsements or simply knowledge of qualified vintage BMW shops in eastern MA?
Not looking for a high-end resto shop like Paul Russell or KTR, but somebody that has experience in performing a 3.0 to 3.5 liter upgrade and who also knows the electric gremlins.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Hi acat2002,
I'm in Boston too and am really happy with the work/service at Gralty Automotive on Cochituate Rd. in Natick.
Best Of Luck

I live in Boston, but when I contacted several people in the BMW CS Registry and the local BMW CCA Boston chapter, I was given multiple positive references on Mario Langsten of Vintage Sports & Racing ( www.VSR1.com )

VSR is ~1hour north of Boston near Concord NH, and I recently had my 1974 BMW 3.0 CS restored with Mario and his team, extremely happy.

I have no affiliation, I am just a very happy customer who will continue to do work and projects with VSR/Mario.

best regards

Ditto on Duane's Mario/VSR recommendation

I have been taking my Coupe and 5 series to him for nearly 10 years now.

Let me chine in here too. Mario has done some work on my coupe including an engine swap from the stock 3.0 to a 3.5L
He does good work and is honest

thanks guys.

It's always good to hear unilateral support for a business!
I'll definately pay him a visit.
