OVERVIEW:                                                                                                                                                       

VETTE UNDERCAR is owned and operated by  Mike Contarino, a long-time Corvette enthusiast and owner. Mike currently owns a 1999 6-speed convertible which was purchased new and has been upgraded with many of the products mentioned in the "SERVICES" page.

Working with Mike is Chris Gagnon, currently a student at New Hampshire Community Technical College. Chris is due to graduate in December with a degree in Automotive Technology.

THE BEGINNING:

Mike began driving during the "muscle car" era of the early 1970's. From his first car, a 1967 Plymouth Barracuda, (which was immediately upgraded with a "cherry bomb" muffler and big tires.....red walls, no less!), to his present car, a 1999 Corvette, Mike always worked on his own cars. [although initially it wasn't necessarily by choice only....economics (i.e. no money) also played a key role!]. Thus began Mike's long-term love affair with sports cars and high performance vehicles. He has also been a motorcyclist for 30+ years and in 1980 purchased his first Harley-Davidson, a Sportster (which he still owns). He later added a 1997 Softail "Bad Boy" to his stable.  

Since his teens, Mike has worked on his (and others) cars and motorcycles and developed a love for the technology. In particular, the high-torque derived from Chevy pushrod V8's and Harley V-Twins became his passion and hobby. Mike is strongly nationalistic and promotes the "Buy American" philosophy.

QUALIFICATIONS and MEMBERSHIPS:

Mike is a degreed Mechanical Engineer who previously worked in the Medical Device and Biotech industries. He held several high level technical management positions before formally launching VETTE UNDERCAR TECHNOLOGIES.

Mike is a full member of SAE, the Society of Automotive Engineers, and is also ASE certified Undercar Specialist with specific expertise in Brakes, Suspension and Steering, and Exhaust Systems.

VETTE UNDERCAR is a member of SEMA (Specialty Equipment Market Association).

WHY VETTE UNDERCAR??

If you own a Corvette, you must love technology and appreciate others who do. Who do you want working on your car?? Can your mechanic boast the qualifications above? Does he know every inch of a C5? Does he drive one every day? (at least in the summer!) Will he treat your car like his own?

If you normally use a Dealership for "routine" maintenance, do you really think that $70. to $80. for an oil change is fair? Are dealership service hourly rates of $80+ worth it? 

Think about the little things. Do you think your mechanic will tighten lug nuts with a torque wrench (instead of an impact wrench) to ensure that correct and equal pressure is exerted on your brake rotors? (It prevents warpage). Will he use a phenolic coated socket so your lugs will not get dinged? Does he really have an appreciation for the investment you have made in your car?

THE SHOP:

VETTE UNDERCAR is located in North Salem, New Hampshire, in a brand new 1000 sq. ft. facility. The garage is equipped with all the necessary equipment and tools. Feel free to contact Mike to schedule a visit to see for yourself.
