Rocky31186 Posted May 31, 2017 Report Share Posted May 31, 2017 Needed a cylinder head gone over and looked everywhere for recommendations for where to go. Found a ton of mixed reviews on here. Randys Machine Shop in Whitehall off of main st got my cylinder head done in less then 24 hrs and turned out great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TA In Progress Posted May 31, 2017 Report Share Posted May 31, 2017 My dad just had all of the machine work done by them on an engine he's putting together and was very happy with his experience as well. Quick, good pricing and they were honest about what actually needed done. They didn't try to sell him services he didn't need. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cordell Posted May 31, 2017 Report Share Posted May 31, 2017 I haven't used Randy's over there in quite some time so I wasn't quick to recommend it, but I'm glad he's still doing good work. My Dad and I never had any issues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

starkmaster03 Posted June 1, 2017 Report Share Posted June 1, 2017 I've used Randy's many times over the years for personal stuff as well as work stuff and have never had an issue. As stated, the prices and turn around are always good as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richard Cranium Posted June 1, 2017 Report Share Posted June 1, 2017 I read / was told Eric has been charged with federal gun crimes, selling 60+ rifles to Mexico Seriously? Yeah, he's a friend of mine. I haven't asked him directly, but after Rocky mentioned it to me I looked up the dispatch article. He isn't the guy who did the selling, but he got wrapped up in the deal. He plead guilty to a number of charges. Honestly, without talking to him about it yet, I'm going to say that he's too nice a guy and trusted the wrong person trying to help them out. I do know at one time he was licensed to do all sorts of fire arms work, not sure why his shop was unlicensed according to the article. No excuse for breaking the law, but he really is a good guy. He's not doing any firearms work at all anymore as far as I know. It does bother me that bad people will be doing bad things to good people with those rifles, and he was involved. But I will continue to trust him with my automotive machine work until I have a reason not to. http://www.dispatch.com/news/20170427/ohioan-charged-in-sale-of-62-sniper-rifles-to-mexican-buyers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miller Posted June 1, 2017 Report Share Posted June 1, 2017 Rick fixed the seep in my oil pan and relocated some sensors into an exhaust pipe for me. No shop around town was capable of cutting and fabbing it for me. Outstanding work. Wouldn't have guessed this. Hopefully he stays among the rest of us during that'll of that.

FyrhzrdGT Posted June 16, 2017 Report Share Posted June 16, 2017 Likely entirely irrelevant to most of this forum, but Randy happens to be really good on vintage Mercedes Benz engines, I use him for all my projects and customer cars. Good guy with good prices. Never had a bad experience with him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
