Hey everyone, I searched around on the forums and didn't find much about shops in Sarasota. If someone can recommend a legit shop to fix my 98 LS400 V8 issues possibly around Sarasota?
Currently, it's sitting in Sarasota and will not start. My friend rebuilt the starter and the car did start but made a horrible constant squealing noise. I drove it one time and after turning off the car, it wouldn't start again... Battery is good, even tried jumping it to double check. Turn the key and it's completely silent. Lights and dash lights work fine.
Side note, I also have an A/C leak that needs to be fixed as well.
If there is a shop around Sarasota that works on Toyota V8s and can possible tow my car there? That would be awesome. Worse case, I will have to sign up for AAA and then use it to tow somewhere. I actually live in Tampa so my car is stranded at my friends place.
Thanks for the help!

Hit up my friend matt (redphoinex) on the forums. Him and his buddy jake know these motors inside out! Maybe they can take a look at it for you at least and maybe come up with a solution. These are some of my best friends and they are good people.
