The Bay Area/San Francisco 560 SL Mechanic?

Hey Everyone! I'm new to this forum and bought an '87 560SL. I've seen some helpful hints and great suggestions so my thanks to everyone for all your previous posts!! Wondering if anyone has suggestions for independent mechanics who work on 560SLs in The Bay Area/San Francisco...? I live in The East Bay but can travel pretty much anywhere in The Bay Area if its the right mechanic!! Seems like there are fewer and fewer of these old school mechanics so hoping some of you have some suggestions...? Many thanks in advance!! Here are a couple pics!!

Can you give us a follow up? Did you find Al Bohler? I have an '88 560, in Danville and am also looking for an experienced mechanic. Thank you.

I just moved to Palm Springs, but I can highly recommend Nick's Mercedes in Walnut Creek @Bill Dormandy - close to you and he's been working on these cars for 40+ years.
