Hi guys - my son and I just bought a 1984 cabriolet that need some sorting out and I was wondering if anyone here could recommend an experience shop that knows these cars in the greater Phoenix area.
Thanks! |

I'll DM you tomorrow. The guy I work for PT has a couple names at work. We used to work on them but he decided a few years ago to just work on air cooled cars.

Try Dan at Competition Engineering 602-454-1555. I'm not sure if he works on water cooled anymore but, it's worth a call.

You might try Virginia Auto Service. 386 E Virginia Ave. Phoenix. They have been working on german cars since they day they opened. I have never used them personally, though friends have. Matt the owner owns a few 914s. I talk to him from time to time at cars and coffee.
We do use The Auto Shop for the daily drivers. 1705 E Jefferson St. Phoenix. They do work on my Mk3 golf when I'm too lazy to do it myself. |
