928 shops in Pacific Northwest
 
Are there any recommended shops in the Pacific Northwest for restoring 928s? I’ve tracked down my grandfathers 1981 928 and it’s in fairly rough shape. I wish it hadn’t left the families possession when he passed years ago but that wasn’t an option then. It runs but needs work everywhere. I’m not looking to make it a concourse level restoration but a good looking driver. I did try searching the forum but the posts are from 5 or 6 years ago. Thanks

A and P are no longer working on 928's

You could also reach out the AvantGarde, they have working on a few 928's in preparation for auction.

A and P called me for parts just last week. Maybe they are just finishing up the last 928 customers

Huh, maybe they changed their minds. Definitely worth a call. I know the owner and the son have loads of experience working on 928's. I have been helping a local 928 owner with a repair that A and P turned away so. so that is where my information came from.

'
Just a general FYI, I was a customer of A&P for a few years. I found that their service was quite good, but that they occasionally "took liberties" with completing work order items.
They were small things that I chose to ignore.
.
Then came the "last straw" . . . . . . they lied to me about completing a specific item on the work order.
Obviously, I suggest other shops.

If in the Seattle area there is a fellow that works at Squires named Erik, that has extensive experience with early 928’s. Lots of certifications, honest, and well trained.
