Need contact info for shop in Bend, Oregon

I received a pair of Webers last week for service. They were delivered to me by a friend of a Porsche specialist shop in Bend, Oregon. Once I opened the box I found no contact info was included and I have no records of who sent them.

I believe it is a one man shop in Bend.

Any help in finding this shop would be appreciated!

Isn’t it fun when you get boxes like that!
I’ve had a few harnesses show up where I’ve had to chase around old emails to try to guess who sent them.
Especially fun when the sender uses a shipping service, so their name isn’t on there at all.

a bit counterintuitive that they'd be dealing with carbs, but maybe this place? https://www.mfiwerks.com/

Dennis:

I feel pretty silly as I talked with the guy but since he did not book a project I did not keep his contact info. (I stopped keeping casual contact file about a year ago.) When the carbs were dropped off I had a nice visit with his buddy but failed to check for contact info...

I'll hear from the guy eventually with a "What is status of my project?"

Dave:

Thanks for suggesting MFIWerks but Mark is a MFI only guy.

They've done a number of 67S's... take a look at their "about" page. They seem to indicate that they are multi-make, but I've only known them as doing Porsche restoration.
I've shipped them a fair amount of parts.

Regards,
Eric

Right, It wasn't me Paul. I receive MFI Pumps with absolutely no contact info in the box sometimes. I have to wait for them to call and ask how the pump is coming along.....

The worst offenders are usually shops where the owner tells the mechanic to put the parts in a box and the front office people ship it…
Fortunately I have always tracked them down. (So far)

Good luck Paul, there are a few Porsche restoration places in Bend, but I don’t know their names.
Maybe John Audette in Sisters knows?

Call the Porsche dealer in Bend and ask for the Parts manager. I'm sure he would know the shops in the area that work on early 911's
Could even be the dealer themselves ! ;-)

Could be Porsche Classic at the Kendall Porsche dealership in Bend. Ask for Steve or Mike. They only work on 356 and early 911's. Can't find their new phone number after Kendall took over the dealership. Phone: 541-382-1711 ext: 6337.

Paul,
I live in Bend and the only two places I can think of were mentioned here 1. GMT and 2. the classic center at Porsche Bend. Let me know if you need any help tracking something down in Bend.
