I did a search last summer, but the only place I could find that dealt with Cadillac's told me that they did not work on them here in the Valley, that the their Cadillac repair place was in Anchorage - 70 miles away. That is not gonna work. I might as well be looking for Los Angeles auto repair places if I am going to be driving a car with no brakes or heater all the way to Anchorage.
I just did a basic search on Repair Pal to check their site out and came back with several places that I had not known about around the Wasilla area. I will need to make some calls and see if any of them work on Cadillacs, try to get the heater and electrical system fixed. My main concern is the brakes though, and the search brought up several places that work on brakes. It did miss Johnson Tire, but I can forgive that since they are 99% tires and just do brakes and lubes and stuff as a additional service I think.
As for Repair Pal, it looks like a great resource for anyone that needs to locate repair information for say a '91 to '10 Ford Explorer, or wants to locate advice on how to replace a head gasket, but it unfortunately is not something I can use for me and dad's cars, since it only seems to go back to 1991 and our cars are from the early '80's and earlier.
It still has a lot of good information from what I have seen in my perusal of the website, and I would recommend it to anyone that is trying to troubleshoot an issue with their post 1990's car, or looking for a local repair shop.

NOTICE: I love trying to make this a good travel journal and while I know I fall short of my dream, I also spend a LOT of time pondering and rereading comments to see if I should post or delete as robot SPAM. So... a few rules on the comments.
I want anyone, not only Blogger members or Open ID members to be able to comment, however... Please sign your comment, if you do not it will not be published. Anonymous comments help no one and are unreliable.
Also, if you have a strong enough opinion to post a comment, please take time and make it informative - if you had a good time somewhere detail what you mean, don't just say "This place was great!!! Loved the buffet!", and if you had a lousy time please detail it, don't just say "This place sucked and the pool smelled! Ruined my vacation!" I want to feel as if you really were there when I read your comments.
If you have a website or blog where you detailed your experience it is even better, include a link to your website or blog - just make sure it is not to a SPAM site made to endorse/defame a location, because I will delete any that do not strike me as being legitimate personal sites.
Thank you for your help in making it easier for me to know what is robotic SPAM and what are real personal reviews.
