I bought an early 915 transmission and some interior parts from them a few years back. It's a plus that they are dismantlers in the dry SW. Price was reasonable, parts were as described, and service was good - recommended.

Bought a window lift from them a few months ago. I agree with Randy that the prices are good and parts are as described. I also will recommend them.

Thumbs up

I purchased a heater blower motor from them... it burned out after 2 days. They sent me another one within 5 days; no questions, no arguments, they even payed shipping.
I'd buy from them again.

Thanks. If it has anything to do with Porsche, someone on this board knows about it. Amazing.

I bought a used windshield from them six months ago, they installed it for $50 or so. Very good work and nice people.

They can be a bit high on older parts but they do have a lot and the condition is usually very good. Dry climate and no rust sure helps when dealing with 911's!

It is good to hear these reports on 20th St., haven't dealt with them yet but would based on this. The (relatively) small world of 911 enthusiasts and forums like this ensure that sellers must "walk the talk", or say bye-bye to reputation. As it should be.

Flip side of course is the kind of advertising that $ can't buy when you deal in good faith w/ people. I wanted to add that I had an excellent first buying experience w/ Oklahoma Foreign recently, (another Porsche yard, ads in Excellence), already posted on this board but they deserve a thumbs-up also.

Bought my 8"s from them. Great price, service is good. But, make sure they verify everything about the order. They got my address wrong - even though I thought I verified Guess they're too busy to check. Nice people though.

Thanks guys, I just bought 4 930 calipers and 2 9X16 Fuchs off of them with no worries. (a 1989 Turbo just came in on a salvage and they were just taking it apart. Lucked out!) Dealt with Dale and he was great.
