Behind my cousins building is a Porsche repair shop, he says they also have a

racing team. Anyone here work there or own the place? Or know of it? I am

going to stop by this week and say 'Hello' anyway but I thought I would ask just in

case. Thanks.

They usually have quite a few 914's there. There use to be some really nice ones in storage.. not sure if they were customer's cars or for sale. Im sure they will show you if you ask.

Aaron, Protosport is really good. And closer for you. Located in Pompton Plains. 973 839 5353. John and Paul both very knowledgable. Might be worth a call.

They had a beastly looking Yellow 914-6 in the making in their shop a few months ago. Just seeing that will make your short trip worth while!

They did my -6 back in their infancy (early 90's and 2 owners ago) and the car still hauls balls some 17 years later.

Cool.

Keith and Mike at PowerTech both used to run 914s. Keith still does (or at least 3 years ago he still was). I think he is the only one there who really loves them.
The shop has grown tremendously since about 1999 and well, with that growth has come a few growing pains. Fun guys though and i would recommend them for 914 work/help.

I don't have a car Evil, but damn my cousin took his daughter and her friend to Hershey park last weekend. If my head wasn't up my butt I would have had him take me too and drop me off to visit. Still here for two weeks, let me work on it.
