You could contact MoveQik. Mike Wills. He lives in AZ. If you PM him today, don’t expect a quick answer. His second golden retriever in six months just died.

Patrick Motorsports in Phoenix will take your money, maybe an hour south of you? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Thanks for the info. I already put Patricks Motorsports in my phone. I'll have to look at Beck. Also, just read the thread on Route 66 run. Looks like I'll be joining that, as my move to Prescott has allowed me to stop working. Yayyyy.

There's a VW guy in Verde Valley that my nephew uses for his 68 bug and likes him. I've stopped in and talked to him and he seemed like a good guy but no direct experience. I'm going there this weekend and will get the name.
If you drive to PHX there are the places mentioned above plus Don Jackson (have not used but has a good reputation), Stuttgart Southwest and Exotic Motorsports both of whom I have used and highly recommend. |

I agree, in no particular order Don Jackson Stuttgart Exotic Becks I purchased my 914 in the Phx area and have a note book of receipts from all those shops as far back as 1984. Past owners used one or another shop with the last owner going to Exotic. PMS has lots of my money and does great six conversations but they would be my last choice for everyday stuff. |
