G'day folks (and folkettes)
Unfortunately the water pump in my V8 is on it's last legs. As this is something that's beyond my capabilities, I'm looking for a professional in either the western/northern/inner city suburbs of Melbourne to replace it. While they're at it, they may as well replace the cam belt as well. I've tried the search function but it refused to be my friend this time.
Any one know of a mechanic? Any help would be much appreciated.

Alky, suggest that you contact
Thanks Steve, I am aware of those guys but I'm reluctant to drive an hour & a half to a repairer in a car that overheats in 10 minutes. Worst case scenario is I throw it on a tow truck to get it there.

Well folks I got a referral from Reepa to a fella in the Northern suburbs (Barry the Bosnian) who did a fantastic job and at a reasonable price too. Turned out the radiator was suffering from the dreaded top tank split as well as a dodgy water pump. All replaced as well as seals & cam belt.
