Edelweiss Porsche Haus in Torrance....Adrian (if he will still work on a /4)

Otto's....John knows his stuff...as with all shops, has some disgruntled customers (that's all I will say).

Most teener owners are cheap and don't want to pay the going rate for "Porsche Mechanics", so find a guy that does VWs.

Better yet....do it yourself...books are cheap...this site will give you more information than you can handle.

If I lived in Los Angeles area I wouldnt take my 914 to anyone other than John at Ottos. He worked on my 74 1.8 when I lived in Pacific Palisades and did an outstanding job. He also taught me a lot about the car. John has been working on and racing 914's since the early 1970's.
