Was searching through 914W threads for a make-up of decent mechanics around the US that work on 914's and other air cooled vehicles. I was recently caught well out of my home turf with my '73 914, and managed to find one with my phone, but he was closed on Sunday. Not that I want everybody open on Sunday... but I thought it would be nice to have a source for a good list.
So.. thought I'd start a thread on the subject.
My list and my opinions (Not in any particular order or under any influence):
1) Wedge Vee Dub: 4028 N 24th Street, Phoenix, AZ 85016 - Paul: Mechanical work - Usually pretty busy, tough to get a quick appointment - but very fair and helpful.
2) AZ Street Custom: 1415 E University Dr, Su C, Phoenix, AZ 85034 - Martin A.: Body & Paint - reliable, quality work, fair prices.
3) CFR - Tangerine Racing: 101 Loomis St., Manchester, CT 06042 - Chris F.: some awesome 914 and other Porsche products (great fuel line replacement system for the 914), and good mechanics. Often busy, and perhaps not the best prices... but right for the location.
4) Allied Motor Works: 6820 W Sylvania Ave A, Sylvania, OH 43560 (Closed Sat/Sun but usually there! - long history of air cooled work, including 914's - small shop)

Would love to see folks add to this list in ONE location...

Thanks (IMG:style_emoticons/default/welder.gif)
