Mamiya C-330

Hey everyone. I just finished up my first roll on my yashicamat. But the real story here is my father walked in today and brought me his old Mamiya C-330 with a 250mm, 135mm, and 55mm. The camera needs to have some fungus cleaned off the viewfinder , perhaps the lenses need a going through, and the film advance seems to be binding a little. Overall the camera is in great shape and the shutters still work well and are very very clean. Is there a shop that is resonable and reliable that can go through this set for me? I would love to get this thing going especially for the 55mm.

I've had good luck shipping older cameras like this to BDC camera repair (in Minneapolis, I think)- google them. Very nice people too.

Does anyone know of any instructions online for stripping and cleaning the Mamiya lenses, or for swapping the viewing and taking lenses?

Thanks, but I was looking for a service manual rather than a user manual.
