A member in Israel is starting a auto restoration parts co. He needs wholesale

parts contacts here in the states for Porsches as well as any others you might

have. Any input would be much appreciated. Post here or send directly to

member 914dror. You guys know how hard it is to get a business off the ground

and find good parts supplyers... imagine doing it from Israel.

Thanks for your help in advance.

If you each give one it will take ten minutes out of your life and you will have

helped so one that needs it. A call from Israel to the states is expensive or he

would do it himself. Little help?

WorldPac (http://www.worldpac.com/) does drop shipping for parts. They're internet based, but it's a possibility.

I would suggest that he contact PCNA (Porsche Cars North America) at 1-800-PORSCHE or http://www.porsche.com/usa/dialogue/contactandinformation/ .

For other aftermarket stuff, you could refer him to http://www.restoration-design.com/

P.S. IIRC, there is a Porsche dealer in Tel Aviv. He should visit them, as well.

Does he have the freedom to search the Internet or is the Internet restricted?

http://www.google.com

insert this: Porsche parts for restoration
into the search feature.
Many pages of links pop right up

Businesses we know that have parts to restore include:

http://www.pelicanparts.com
http://www.automobileatlanta.com
http://www.restoration-design.com/
http://www.hemmings.com (for thousands of vendor businesses)


I only typed a few off the top of my head so maybe these will help.
I tried to include Zimms in TX but some software site came up instead.
