964 mechanic in the SF East Bay?

I have a 1990 964 that I use as an every-other-daily driver. Its main use is as a car that I enjoy driving, and that enjoys being driven. I am looking for a mechanic in the San Francisco East Bay who knows these cars and can keep them running. When I used to have 356s, Sam Sipkins was the master on those cars. Our long time Mercedes mechanic is quite good though doesn’t know these intuitively — is there someone in the East Bay who gets these cars? Looking for less of a professor and more of a craftsman. (Professors are fine, they just seem less curious than the craftsmen – and keeping a 35 yr old car running requires curiosity)

Ok, not the East Bay, but I like RMG in Sunnyvale.
