Experienced Datsun Z Mechanic Needed in Lower NY Area!

Hey all -

I've owned my 1976 Datsun 280z for about six months now, and after doing most of the restoration work myself, I've made the HORRIBLE mistake of taking my car to a local shade-tree mechanic to have my tank refreshed.

Long story short, a piss-poor / bullshit job was done on my tank, already fried one fuel pump, bogs constantly, and most recently stopped starting at all. My battery is drained, and it seems as if my alternator is no longer cycling a charge back into the battery (ie. dead)! At one point, this con-artist of a mechanic claimed that my fuel delivery problem (post tank "refresh") was an electronic issue, and a key reason I think my battery and alternator are now dead (crossed wiring somewhere??)

So, I turn to you Zilvia - can anyone recommend a respectable Nissan / Datsun specialist in the New York City / Lower NY area that can suss out my car's issue and help put me back on the road. I'm located in Brooklyn, and the car WILL need to be towed (sadly).

Let me know!
Much appreciated!!
