Strong recommendation for Rob (SirRobyn0) at Luke's Redmond Automotive in Redmond, WA

[C10_Blackie]

Wasn't sure where to put this - hope this is a good place. I just wanted to strongly recommend Rob Norenberg (@SirRobyn0) at Luke's Redmond Automotive in Redmond, Washington. I took on my first square body project only recently and needed a lot of help. Fortunately, other people on this forum directed me to Rob.

The truck had a lot of issues - nothing too major - but I'm new to this and needed somebody to go through the truck and make sure it wasn't going to kill me somehow and then help triage the issues and work a few of the more immediate ones. Rob has extensive Chevy truck experience, gave me truly outstanding advice and even figured out how to save me a lot of money on the work. We ended up swapping out the column with a rebuilt replacement, new oil pressure sensor, new starter and a few other things and I can still afford to eat and stuff like that.

Thanks Rob! The truck looks pretty much the same as it looked on the outside when I dropped it off but the ride home was a lot more fun than the ride out there to drop it off was. I'd heartily recommend this shop to anybody with a GM truck.

Thanks Rob,
I want to make a couple of quick comments here. First off ALL forum members get 10% off plus freebees at the shop. So in Rob's case he got 10% off and then I spent an hour and half plus materials sorting out the vacuum lines on the truck and getting the charcoal canister hooked up and working. So obviously we don't make a lot of money doing these trucks, no I'd rather save you good folks a few dollars. But we need to keep the shop afloat so we tend to need the truck for a few weeks or more, depending on what all is needed.

Second, my presents on the forum is all but nothing right now do to some personal stuff, but I still go to work and I still work on these trucks. With that said the best way to reach me if you want work done on your truck or even if you just want to get my attention / advice for some reason is to send me a PM since I'll get a notification for that in my E-mail.

Thanks and hope you all are doing well.

I'd also like to add that one of Rob's best qualities is PATIENCE. I basically inundated him with information and there was a lot of stuff to sort through and discuss in order to find the right solution for the long-term (what to work vs. what to leave for later). Rob was very patient and kind throughout the process and I learned a lot from it.

I wish I was closer. I would definitely bring my truck by for diagnoses from @SirRobyn0 Rob. I would love someone that could help me decipher what I needed first and what could wait, help decide what I could tackle myself to help along the way etc...

You were patient with me as well when the timeline got off. I'm glad you learned from it. Explaining things and going over one thing at a time is part of the process on older rigs like this where the owner cares a great deal about the truck.

Ya, your a bit far. Your welcome to hit me up in a pm message if there is anything I can help with from a distance. If you take it to a local shop and need help deciphering their lookover I'd be happy to try to help with that even if it means calling the shop or looking at paperwork. Really the only reason I'm on the forum right now is Robs post but like I said I'll still see pm notifications in email and even though I haven't much time to be on The forum I still want to help if I can.

Very cool, good to know for future reference. I'm going to have to keep his information for future help I'll need with my 77' Cheers!

Love hearing stories like this.

Also: that's a FIIIIINE-lookin truck! I'm sick of all the bland black and white and silver gray plastic SUV's everywhere, but that black/white two-tone is really sharp.
