I recently purchased an older model Porsche 911 and right off the bat I experienced problems (severe gas leak from tank, etc). One day while "working" on it at my home a gentlemen who was visiting his family at a neighboring house came over and introduced himself and said he worked at an establishment that specialized in these types of cars. Because this repair was out of my league I decided to call. I spoke with one of the owners, Gerard. He was very friendly and said he could fit me in so I figured what the heck (plus it doesn't hurt he is an Army Veteran like myself). I had my car flat bedded down on the 2nd of January. I must admit, I... I recently purchased an older model Porsche 911 and right off the bat I experienced problems (severe gas leak from tank, etc).

I must admit, I was a little skeptical at first, the area is extremely crowded and the shop is no Chip Foose or Boyd Coddington "eat off the floors" type establishment but the fears quickly dispersed. From the get go Gerard started looking over my car, he noticed some problem areas quickly that needed addressed like the rear motor mounts as well as some wiring and vacuums lines that were definitely not right. After a once over, I turned over the keys to my new project and off I went. Gerard called often with multiple status updates. It appears whoever worked on my car in the past must of not known his A$$ from a hole in the ground (my words). Missing sway bar, timing WAY out of whack, wires wrapped around stuff they shouldn't be, a throttle cable missing, gear fluid that was supposedly changed but wasn't, no air filter, and that is just the tip of the iceberg!! I could go on and on. Gerard and his staffs' attention to detail and knowledge of the product are second to none. When I stopped by to check in last week and when I picked up my car today Gerard went out of his way to explain many key facets of Porsche ownership and maintenance. My baby still needs some more work but rest assured when I get some more money put together I will without hesitation return to Gerard and the team at Motor-Werkes INC.
