Years ago, when I started to work on Citroen cars and trucks, there were regional workshops over weekends at selected locations for working on Citroen cars. People who were expert at tune-ups, knew short cuts, made tools or had information just came to learn about things on their cars. Very few came to sell things, but sometimes they did and it was good home-made tools for sale to other amateurs.
Has anyone done this for smart?
I bring this up because in less than two years, I will be retired and working on my cars, including two or possibly three, smart fortwos. I'll be in Michigan west of Ann Arbor, on perhaps six acres with a large barn and a good workshop.
As the cars become more in need of maintenance and the parts achieve the dreaded status of NLA- no longer available, I'd like to sound people out on this.
With the weather bad, we need things to think about that can be positive.
We can start by figuring out where people are and determining if someone wants to act as a point of contact - no other commitment required- for various regions or groups in the US.
I'm thinking that a Midwest region comprising Michigan, Ohio, Missouri, Illinois, Indiana and Wisconsin might represent a goodly number of smart owners
