This is a long shot, but can anyone recommend a good 914 mechanic in Davis, California, or close to it?

I may be looking for someone to do a mechanical inspection of a 914 that is for sale, including doing a compression and leakdown test.

Thanks,

Mcmark. Think he is closer to Napa though.

McMark specializes in 914's and knows them very well. Ron Kain is very good too...

Wow, thanks guys for those fast replies! This is an impressive Forum. I spend a lot of time on the 356 Registry Forums, but I can see that if someday I find the right street 914 that I'm looking for, I'll be spending a lot of time here as well.

Best regards,

McMark 100%. Well worth the drive to Sonoma.

I'm willing to drive for a PPI. I hate seeing people end up with projects that are too far gone to be practical.
