Mechanic in Harrisburg, PA area??

FINALLY bought an Airstream!! 1974 31'. Sorry if this is the wrong place for this but I'm looking for a good mechanic in my area near Harrisburg, PA. I did a google search and came up with a place called John's RV & Trailer. I also searched the forums but I didn't see much? Thanks for any help.

Derek

I would say it depends on what you want done. If it is "Airstream" specific, you would likely be better off taking it to an Airstream dealer or somebody that knows what they are doing like Frank Yensan @ Franks Trailer Works in Baltimore. If it is "systems" stuff like the furnace, fridge etc. then a local, reputable dealer should be fine.

The best Airstream dealer near to Harrisburg is Colonial in Lakewood NJThey are excellent but far away. For state inspections etc we go to Martin's Trailer Sales on the Carlisle Pike out near CV HS.

It is my understanding that the dealer in Greensburg is closing.
