Earlier this year I was involved in accident that damaged my car substantially.
Fortunately, no-one was injured and everyone concerned had good insurance. I originally thought the car would be totalled but it was assessed as repairable. Parts for 914s are few and far between over here, so it was decided that a trip to Ca. would be best to get what was needed to complete the repair. Hooked up with Bruce in Riverside in mid July, he’d already started to gather the used parts for me and together we cleaned, packed and delivered them to a freight company for shipping back to Australia. Shipping the parts turned into a nightmare as a few of the suppliers of the new parts were less than co-operative when it came to the required documentation. The lack of appropriate documents delayed the shipment by a month while I waited for a ruling from US Customs and after much frustration the parts arrived here earlier this month. Since then however lots of progress has been made and I’m amazed by the skill and craftsmanship of the Zag Automotive guys. Attached thumbnail(s) Attached image(s) |
