Does anyone know of someone who lives in or near Petaluma, CA who restores Elans?

I would use Richard Kamp --Kampena Motors

+1--Rich recently relocated from Sonoma Raceway to the town of Sonoma. Phone: 415-341-3822.
He may be the most knowledgeable person in the country when it comes to the "Classic" Elan (and he is also the NorCal authorized Caterham dealer).

Are you familiar with GGLC, Porscheholic?
I'm sure there are plenty of helpful souls with local Elans there that can point you in the right direction. Golden Gate Lotus Club:

GOLDEN GATE LOTUS CLUB - Lotus Car Club for Lotus Enthusiasts - Track Days, Autocrosses, Meets, Tours, Vintage Racing & More!

Another +1 for Kampena. The guy who bought my Elan in 2005 lives in San Jose, but was going to use Rich for anything that needed to be done in the future. He was as picky as I am, so I know he would only use the best. I've heard nothing but good stories about his work.

BTW, I was in Petaluma back in late June/early July visiting my daughter, who lives there. Nice little town, but the real estate is pricey!

Yes, either Rich Kamp at Kampena in Sonoma or Spencer's Motorsports in Petaluma.
