Question PPI in Plano Texas, about 25 miles north of Dallas ?

Hello guys,

I have made an offer on a 1984 Carrera, in Plano, Texas (Allen to be exact).

If it goes through, I would go for a PPI. Can any of you recommand a good shop in the area ?

I am more than 2400 miles away, so this must be a reputable and knowledgable shop.

Thanks.

Jacques

Boardwalk Porsche 877-996-1911 ask for CHuck Haynes
This is pretty close to where your car is... Boardwalk is in Plano
I know Chuck and John Gladwell and they are top notch Porsche
techs and excellent racers.

+1 on Chuck and John. They will take the time to explain what they find.

Call and ask for Tim Shaeffer. He's the service adviser and is very understanding of our illness.

Jim Lennington at Dallas Eurocars @ 35 and Walnut Hill in Dallas. He will be much cheaper than RUF. I just took my 85 911 to spec some A/C work and I was impressed by his knowledge and passion for 911's. Porsche-Lexus Mercedes-Bmw repair in Dallas Ft Worth Tx. He also has good feedback here and on Rennlist.

At the risk of reviving an old thread I want to give a shout out to Mike at Mayo Performance in Dallas (817 540-4939) who just today averted me from buying a car that had issues that the vendor failed to fully disclose.

Thanks Mike!
