1976 Turbo Carrera Turbo rebuild

[Redgard]

I have a 1976 Turbo Carrera (#0034) it probably one the first of its kind to be imported into the States.
I recently had the engine rebuilt but unfortunately the turbo itself has just decided to die.
Does anyone have advice on a good person / shop, that could do this work?
The Turbo is original to the car.. it would be nice to keep it.
Thanks for your help!

I may have an original turbo off of my 930/50 1976 turbo motor (transplanted in my 77) if you need it. It was operational when I upgraded it to an Andial hybrid in the early 90's (also have that turbo) so would be a good candidate for a rebuild. I have no need for it and only kept it in case an original car came along that needed one from this board. If interested I can pull the tag info off of it for you and work something out.

Hi yes that might be a better way to go and having two turbos for this car sounds like a good idea!
Can you message me with more details and how much you would like for it? I know how backed up the shop i took it to is and i doubt they’ll sit on my car while i rebuild the old.
Thanks!
