Good machine shop / welder in La Paz

I needed an Aluminum bracket for my silencer welded in La Paz, and these guys worked me in right away, providing a good solid weld that has held up to days of Bolivian off-roading since. The shop is near the Estadio Simon Bolívar at Calle Landaeta and Av Jaimes Freyre, a few km from the witches market:

Tornería Gonzales
Zona Tembladerani
Calle José Saravia No 225
La Paz, Bolivia
Tel: 2 414914


GPS:
S 16 deg 30.807 min
W 068 deg 08.474 min


(Aluminum mounting bracket after being welded, then ground down to fit under the luggage rack (black part). Both welds - this and a fat bead to join my header pipe to an exhaust tube - have held up well.)
