Recommedations on workshop for 72 911T in Broward Co. FL

Have just purchased a '72 911T Targa, the car hasn't arrived yet but am sure it will need some amount of TLC. So the 1st and 2nd priorities will be to deal with any rust and bodywork issues, then running gear. Can anyone recommend workshops in S. Florida that are R&R....reasonable and reliable. Thank you

I get my car worked on at KMW Motorsports in Boca...Kevin and his guys do an excellent job on my 87 coupe.

Kmw

You can't go wrong with either shop, I have known both for over 20 years.

+1 for the 901 shop!

There is also Klubsport in Palm Beach... They do a lot of older restoration work.

All 3 of these shops are top shelf. I know of no shops in the south with a name worth mentioning... Perhaps there is a business opportunity there... KMW is closest to you.

Also, for body work: I have visited Auto Haus South several times for track inspections and the level of metal work there was impressive. I have not actually had any work done there, but the owners are very active in the PCA and track events and know porsches well

Best regards,

Michael
