Looking for a good car mechanic near Orange, CA

I know, I'm sorry for even mentioning cars on this forum, but I do need to get around when the beemer isn't available for whatever reason. I'm looking for someone in or near Orange, CA, who might be semi-retired, or work out of their backyard (clearly speaking from my great experiences in North Carolina) or just has a reputable reasonably priced shop. I have an '88 Dodge Colt (yes, I know, but great gas mileage!) that needs an oil change, tune up, and thorough inspection before a long drive across the country. Any leads are appreciated!

Thanks,

David

Good link, Paul! In reading some of the comments left about specific shops I'm familiar with, it looks like an accurate resource for research.

Thanks Paul - I did not know about this service from Click and Clack. I'm sure I can find somebody using that website.

Thanks!
