Boston-area mechanics (22R, 4th gen. pickup)

The title says it all - would appreciate a recommendation for a good, honest Toyota mechanic in the Greater Boston area. Specifically, a mechanic who knows older pickups and 22Rs.

I'm a new owner of an 1987 pickup. I also own an old Saab, and for a longest time I've taken it to ABJ, a shop in Somerville. These folks are not just good with old Saabs - they are *fans* of them; all the mechanics drive Saab Classics themselves. Ideally, I would like to find a place like that for Toyota pickups.

Thank you.

OK, it really looks like I'm being too picky/demanding!
A revised version: I'm just looking for good Toyota mechanics. Being fanboys of 1980-s pickups is NOT a requirement. If they are known to be good with 22Rs, it's a bonus. But again, not a requirement. As long as they don't laugh at me for bringing a 25+ y.o. truck to their shop, it should be ok, heh.

Also, I'm willing to drive. So they don't have to be within/close to Boston.
There GOTTA BE decent yota shops in NH and Maine within an hour drive from Boston! I know these things are quite popular in those muddy parts...
Thanks again for any advice.

I would be interested in finding one too....kind of surprised no one has responded, there must be a good old Toyota shop/mechanic out there in New England.
