Hello -
I bought a 1972 Porsche 914 (1.7L - California car) about 4 years ago with the intent of tackling a restoration project and eventually teaching my kids on how to drive a stick. Well, time flies and the project is still not complete. Kids graduated college and have left the nest.

What:
I am looking for a recommendation on a restoration shop or someone who can help me put the car back together in San Diego area. The car is factory black (an upgraded option at the time). I attached an inspiration photo of what it could look like when completed.

Where:
Car is located in San Diego, CA

Status:
Car is a roller and has been professionally painted and ready for assembly
- Replaced all inside floor pans with new
- Replaced rear Trunk floor pan with new
- Repaired "hell hole" with all new metal

Interior:
- New seats (Houndstooth)
- New dashboard (Leather with double stitching)
- Factory glass
- Wooden steering wheel
Need to order new carpet, door panels etc.

Exterior:
- In process of getting all parts chrome plated (bumpers, door handles etc.)

Thank you.
