Has anyone had experience with Classic Porsche Restoration in Easton, MD? My 914 has been sitting in my garage for 20+ years with frame damage from a leaking battery. Looks like where the strut(?) attaches to the frame is rusted and the car looks like it has a broken leg.
I am considering Classic Porsche Restoration to do the work. If you have other suggestions for restoration garages near eastern Virginia, please let me know. Thanks! |

If CT is in range, talk to Chris at Tangerine Racing.
Sadly, this type of damage is relatively common in 914s, and in the past has made them not worth repairing. So be prepared for a lot of expense!! The cars are worth more now, so it will probably be worth the repair, but it will not be cheap. --DD |
