Default Who is still in the PNW?

I have a friend with a 928 living up there that is in need of some work. They are looking for a shop or individual to get it running again. Its rough, but they love the car. I will know exactly what city they are in this evening. Any help is appreciated.

We can definitely help out. Tell him to send me an email and I can either help or figure out who is closest to help..

I have a good friend in the Seattle area that is a damn good mechanic and recently out of his "real job" so he has some free time. He helped me on occasion with mine so he knows his way around the car. He'd probably be willing to take a look at it.

PacNW is a pretty big region. If he is in the Portland area, I am sure I/we can assist. Let us know.

Be careful when you get around the Tacoma area (ahem - Ken O'S...). Apparently there is some kind of vortex there, and several 928s have been appropriated, stripped and gutted. The good news is that the cars appear to be going through a transformation, as they have been seen later sporting a roll-cage, fat tires, etc.

the S4's make it out of Ken's place just fine. you just have to park on the street side of the event horizon...

Leaf works on everything Boxsters/911/944's

He is High priced, SLOW, SLOW and SLOW but I think he is a decent mechanic/guy just lazy.
