Default thanks to Ian at 944 online

Through a mishap of communication, my new clutch and other parts were shipped to the wrong address. Ian made it right and got everything to me in time for my full weekend of engine reinsertion!

Isn't the clutch just beautiful!

Ian is VERY helpful, why he even sent me a rebuilt alternator without charging me when i asked him for one. I never knew until FedEx dropped it off...........he said that i could pay him back anytime, but i paid him the next day

I have had good experiences with 944 Online too.

I sure like your new avatar picture better than the old one! Good luck on the clutch and finishing the rebuild.

Great to deal with. Have talked to Ian, & Steve. Both well knowledged, and orders are here in CT in 3 days. I like them, UPS drivers must hate me, (calipers, rotors, starter,ect) uhhh! But at least lighter than boat exhaust manifolds! Alex

My old 944 is rolling around the area with a rebuilt transaxle and alternator from Ian. They know 944's and have great service. Built my '88 transaxle after I called him, sent it in a couple of days (UPS no less!).

Good folks that try to keep all our old cars on the road by providing cost-effective fixes for cars that, frankly, don't have big values.
