Dropped by Renegade on Monday. I've known the crew for many years. Despite that they still let me in the door and greeted me nicely.
The shop is just off the Vegas strip in an industrial area.
Got the $.05 tour. Got to see the mentioned vehicle, the Boxster that is next on the list and a gnarly Targa that has a big block in it.
Of course they fired it up to move inside the bay as it was close to 5PM. It has hydraulic cutout for the muff. Needles to say it went from a stock sounding 911 to a screaming banshee.
The 996 was up on the rack so I was able to eyeball the mods top to bottom. Very well done. The Renegade parts stand out by their fit and appearance. The power steering pump up front was fitted so that you could still pull the spare out. The front trunk was tiny.....996s aren't know for a lot of storage.
The rest of the shop was clean and well presented. The stock of parts was organized and you could find things very easily.
A small block powered 914 was on another lift. 17 inch Rota/Fuchs and the Renegade designed brake calipers. Four piston jobbers that are beautiful to look at, can fit under 15 inch wheels. I didn't ask the price but I would assume they well worth it.
Very proffessional looking and running operation. They just re-did the front office and it looks good too. The shop cat was the only lazy thing here.
