repair info. 1800 1971

Hi all,

I own a 1800E. The car needs som rust repairs and the usual host of little things, but it drives great. I am not a good mechanic and for the technical part depend on a reliable workshop where they know this type of car.
Before I go into the rust repairs, I have to fix a few things first. The main thing is that the car smells very strongly after gas, specially when the windows are open. Also it uses about one gallon of gas for every 16 miles.
(clearly there is something wrong)
Most of the time I'm working abroad and I just moved to the Charlotte NC area and would like to know if any of you know of a place in that region which will be able to work on this type of car.

Thanks in advance,

Hans
