Great PPI Experience w/ Dutch Treat in Lawndale CA

I had a great experience with Robert, owner of Dutch Treat in Lawndale CA. He was responsive, professional and extremely knowledgeable. In the first hour of a PPI, Robert found a number of issues that steered me away from purchasing a low mileage '88 930. I'd highly recommend his service 310.644.1006. He found about $5k worth of repairs that would be necessary.

Initially, I had wanted to work with Tony Callas, but he's away from the shop this week. Timing wouldn't allow for him to be available.

The transmission didn't shift properly. Believes needs rebuild, clutch likely gone (possibly mis-adjusted), brakes at 10% remaining, replaced rear control arm, bent muffler and tweaked bumper / bumperette assembly. Thinks the car was spun and crashed rear end first. About $5k worth, which was not obvious from my casual inspection.

I agree with techweenie. I have used him many times in the past. He got so busy for a while, it was hard to get in on short notice!
