David, any chance you are from El Paso?
I do live in Federal Way, but I can't specifically recommend a mechanic, although I'm sure there are plenty out there. I assume you are probably aware of how much mechanics typically have to charge up here?
Even if money is no object, I'd listen really hard to the guys on this forum first. Two things are in your favor here...1, these engines are among the simplest engines ever made and 2, few people know more about them than the people on this forum. Looks like this isn't your daily driver and figuring this stuff out yourself can be a lot of fun too. If you have a chance to browse through my thread "saving granddad's falcon" and a few others before that, you can see how far I've gone with the help of this club. Like Roger said, there are only a few places oil will come from. They are all pretty easy to get to.
That really is a nice looking falcon...what engine have you got in there?
