My long time mechanic Hans Assigal at

Hans Imports
7552 Talbert Ave.
Huntington Beach CA 92648

He's been a Porsche Certified 914 Tech since day one in the late 1960's prior to roll-out at Circle Porsche+Audi in Long Beach, & then with his own shop since 1972, & a multiple 914 owner in his younger days.

He's done a bunch of other VW & Porsche aircooleds too in that time & earlier when he was in his home Austria VW-Audi-Porsche dealership there, before coming to the US in the mid/late-1960's.

Then there's also Bill Brewster in South Orange County:
Brewster Industries
130 Calle Iglesia #B
San Clemente, CA 92672


... & Tom & Bev Gould at TC's Garage (Tom was one of Pelican's founders):
1315 Hot Spring Way #105
Vista, CA 92081


... & Jim Buck at Cape Auto:
Cape Auto
27762 Forbes Rd. #1R
Laguna Niguel, CA 92677


... & Randy at AASE (the shop, see below for the parts one):
Aase Motors
1104 E Elm Ave.
Fullerton, CA 92831


... & Einmalig:
Einmalig
5455 Production Dr.
Huntington Beach, CA 92649


... & GMG:
GMG
3210 S. Shannon St.
Santa Ana, CA 92704


... & Hergeshsheimer:
Hergeshsheimer
20612 Canada Rd. (tilde "~" over the 1st "n")
Lake Forest, CA 92630


... & Autowerkes:
Autowerkes
7452 Talbert Ave.
Huntington Beach, CA 92648

... & Otto's
Otto's Venice
707 S. Hampton Dr.
Venice, CA 90291


... & Der Buggy Shop:
Der Buggy Shop
Auto Repair Shop
Address: 13032 Benton St, Garden Grove, CA 92843


... & Paul Kramer at Auto Kennel (sales & consignments & member here):
AutoKennel
1974 Charle St.
Costa Mesa, CA 92627


... & Cooper Boggs (Concours Detail Shop & 914 owner):
Cooper's Classy Car Care
Cooper.Boggs@gmail.com - email for mailing address


Willhoit in Long Beach CA does mostly 356s, but may be a good one to include.


... & probably should include Pelican & the other member vendors on here too!

And since you're trying to get your new mag in the right places, you might also get places like:

Autos International in Vista & World Upholstery in Ojai/Ventura CA who do 914 interior restos & kits;

North Hollywood Speedometer & Palo Alto Speedometer in CA who do VDO instrument restos & repairs;

Al Reed in Anaheim CA & Weideman's Wheels in Oroville CA who do the slick wheel restos;

Stoddards & Automotion/Ekler's, AASE Parts in Ohio, Parts Heaven, DC Automotive, LA Dismantlers, etc. to hit up the new & used parts houses;

& the Porsche dealerships themselves

- in order to get tabletop coverage in key places.

Nice gesture for your new magazine!

Air Cooled Racing in PA...

Steve, you'll meet Steve Limbert at Okteenerfest - he's the one bringing the factory 914-6 GT car. He's a huge 914 guy (obviously) so he'd be perfect.

Plus...
901 Shop
3281 SE Slater Street
Stuart, Florida 34997

European Performance Center (Europerf)
175 Passaic St
Garfield, NJ 07026
(this is who got us into 914's and who originally built Papa Smurf)

Powertech
311 W Main St
Rockaway, NJ 07866
(Owner Keith is one of the best 914 racers I've ever seen)

Right in your back yard:

Black Forest Racing
6480 Denver Industrial Park Rd.
Denver, NC 28037

John Forbes is one of the best in the business. You should see him and a bunch of his cars at Okteenerfest.



Posted by: naro914 Aug 20 2015, 12:37 PM

LOL...Steve...ever heard of that John Forbes guy?

Posted by: Briby37 Aug 20 2015, 02:11 PM

I forgot to mention Rich Bontempi at:

HPH / High Performance House
2431 Spring St.
Redwood City, CA 94063

.. another Bay Area - soon to be ex- is McMark at Original Customs, but you'll need to get his new address from him when he moves back to the "frozen north central"!

Other Bay Area/NoCal & Central Cal guys/gals can chime in on their fav shops.

Cheers!
