1979 Escort Mechanic suggestions

Hello, i have just recently moved cities and purchased a 1979 Escort which needs some work, can anyone suggest a good escort mechanic in Brisbane, or perhaps point me in the right direction? I have little knowledge of cars in general but we have to start somewhere right? I was pointed towards these forums as a workmate told me they were the place to go for info and help etc..
Thanks for any feedback.

    Howdy. These old fords are very simple to work on. You might feel comfortable enough tackling a few jobs yourself if you find yourself a gregorys/ haynes repair manual. I suggest this because you may find it difficult and/or expensive to find a suitable mechanic to offer their time on an older car like this. Your friend is right in saying CFF is a great place to get info so if you get stuck don't be afraid to ask some questions in the HELP thread. Good luck :)

    You could also join a local car club as the members are always willing to help out each other and will be a great source of parts too.
