Need Help, Lot's of Problems (Wash. State)
Ok here's the list of problems
My engine's been running hot lately (3/4 of the way up, i have to have the heat on full to get it 1/2 way) so i went to have it checked and i have a Leaky Headgasket (what guy at radiator shop said, he found combustables in the radiator) would this be something i could do myself?
I'm at 175000, and at 180,000 i'll need a new timing belt and water pump
not sure how long it's been but need my valve's checked and adjusted if needed
after the wreak, my right rear hub/bearings need replacement (make's noise)
and then i'll need body work done and a new paint job
Where would you go to get the engine work done, the suspension work done, and the body work done? Any shops you know of and trust? because i don't have a "shop" yet & i don't have time nor the knowledge to do any of this (plus a warenty would be nice)
Sim's Honda up in Burlington estimated $900 for the engine work (free rental car), les schuab quoted me $160 for the bearings, and don't know how much for body work.
Please help, and thank's in advance

If you can, find a shop and not a dealer. You mentioned Sim's Honda, and it sounds like a dealer. If it is a dealer, find just a shop, they will be alot cheaper. I wish I lived up near you because I could do all the work for you for cheap. All the motor work and right rear hub anyway. I would definetly have the water pump and timing belt changed when you have the head gasket changed.
