Service experience question
- Thread starter keithn
- Start date
I have a 1972 2.4e that I did a full restoration on with the help of Gantspeed almost 10 years ago. I maintain it properly with regular fluid changes etc and it gets used (done about 10k since the restoration). Everything is fine except that it has developed a backfiring issue, particularly on decellaration, which I am sure is fuel injection related rather than exhaust.
I am looking to find a reputable and experienced outfit to give the car a full check over and service and to hopefully sort the backfire issue out. I also want an updated valuation and want to do this independently from Gantspeed this time (I still really rate them but would just like a second opinion - not that I am planning to sell).
I have been considering either Prill Porsche Classics or Export 56. Not used either but I read good things online, particularly about Export 56. Any advice appreciated.
Andy Prill is one of the leading experts on early Porsche models 356 / 911 and is well respected within the Porsche Community and also Porsche AG.
He's a smashing guy and if I was in your position I would not hesitate to call him and discuss.
They work on a lot of early cars and Steve races them as well. Peter is correct about Andy Prill.
Peter, sorry we are not in Switzerland on the postphoned Porsche Parade, its a long time to wait until next year.
