PPI in Olympia WA

Need recommendations for a thorough PPI in Olympia, Washington State. For a '73 914 2.0, so emphasis is on thorough and knowledgeable about potential rust damage. TIA.

Thanks for the heads up. Photos show some surface rust in the hell hole, but nothing very bad. Car has (supposedly) been garaged its whole life.

Anybody who works on Porsches in Olympia? I have a guy who does some work on them, but it's not his main business. I trust him for mechanical stuff, but not sure about all the 914 subtleties.

Seller says he has a local buyer and if that falls through I'm next in line. I'm still not sure what it would take to bring it completely back to superb condition...but I'd take a flyer on it and learn something at the very least.

Stephen,

Just got home from a business trip and was checking the sites and ran across this.

Buyer beware. Hope this helps.
