I would recommend McMark from Original customs. He is in Sonoma but I'd trust him with any 914 related issue. I took him my LE recently after spending a good year at a supposed reputable shop. Finally picked it up & towed it 8+ hours to have Mark fix it. He had it running in 2 hours

. While he doesn't work for free he is very reasonable & worth every damn penny

. He is a moderator here & is pretty easy to find

Mike's 914 even knows the way to McMark's shop... I remember seeing it with it's tail end in the air just inside the door one day getting one of Mark's dual o-ring speedo drives. Nice car.

Thanks, thats an honor coming from you guys. Sadly it has a new owner in Pa, fortunately a good owner that will take care of her.

Waiting for our next 914...

I used to take my 914 to Stutgart west, when I lived there back in the 80's
