Welcome to the Club! Locally, McMark is probably your best bet. He has Original Customs in Sonoma
http://www.originalcustoms.com

He knows his way around these cars and does nice work. Read some of the restoration/build threads and he is all over them.

I am local to you BTW - Alamo.

That's not dust! Just woke this one up from a 23 year slumber as well. Yours looks to be in better shape (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Looks like a great car! Thanks for the references guys.

Will respond in a day or so, when I have time to give it the proper attention.

If Denny Kahler is still around, he might be a decent place to go that's closer. But if you don't mind the extra distance, McMark knows 914s better than just about any of us.
