Paint is a difficult task, the most important and the restorer in charge of the job must work closely with the painter in order to harmonize efforts. This guy delivers the quality I require and I thank him for putting up with my crazy requirements. 

These old engines are made very well but at their current age competent machine work is required. Dennis has genius level air cooled abilities! 

Thomas has been trimming Porsches & exotic European cars for over 30 years. He does Pebble beach cars and lucky for us he finds time to do our work. 

Joe has 60 years metalworking experience - 45 years of that was working on Porsches from when they were new! Joe has forgotten more about a Porsche 911 chassis than most will ever know. A true Jedi Master of the metal craft. 

Terry has been manufacturing rubber since the 1970s. While he specialized in 356 for a long time our shop is one of the first to convince him to do more 911 and 912 specialty stuff. Many of his prototypes are fitted with our cars. https://im356-911.com

Driving in Auckland with Mark my New Zealand based client in the 1972 Porsche 911T/E I sold him a year before. This man lives in the next town over from where my Mum grew up, we are now great friends. 

Dieter flew out to see a 930 cabriolet, he has since visited when in town and attended local car shows with us numerous times.

1969 Porsche 911S soft window about to hit a world record. Final sum was $286,000 but unknown to the public an offer of over $300k came in the next day from the underbidder. 

Andreas owns Carpoint, one of the largest vintage Porsche parts manufacturing companies in the world. When only the very best will do he purchased his Speedster from Vintage Excellence.

David from Australia bought one 912 from me and then decided he should buy another one, second one he flew out with his wife to tour Southern California in. Nothing beats arriving and driving your own Porsche in a foreign land. 

Now residing on one of the Palm Islands this 1972 Porsche 911 surely gets noticed  by the locals as definitely something different. The buyer visited my shop, bought the car and then ordered a very special Air Conditioning system for the desert heat. 

Steve takes his Porsche collection very seriously and this immaculate rare Golden Green 912 fit the bill for the perfectionist 

This client wanted a 1st year 1965 911 but it had to have a sunroof. Difficult challenge accomplished 

Adding a 1967 911S to the collection, the sunroof client is back for a second one 

Bob was looking at Pebble Beach cars on Ocean's Avenue when he walked past our perfect 1973 911E targa, having a dream to buy one 40 years before he was instantly taken back - bought the car on the spot and could not be happier

A NFL team doctor wanted more power in the 1972 911T he bought from us, so we built a 2.7L RS engine for him

This 912 soft window was purchased by a Swiss Porsche parts dealer and driven on a 6000 mile trans American rally immediately after purchase
