Hi you guys, hoping to catch some members from Michigan. I am looking at a car near Flint, MI. Is anyone around that area and could recommend a good place for a PPI? Would highly appreciate it. The exact town is Flushing, between Detroit and Flint.

Another big welcome from the Lansing area. There are at least three of us here.

Hi! I
I'm in Midland (moving up North from Detroit) I have learned that Frankenmuth is an epicenter of 928 obsession. Maybe you want to check there.
Welcome.

Wellcome,

Interesting that you resurrected this thread after 8 years of dormancy. DaveK would be a great source for a PPI...

As for me? I live in the far northern outlands of Michigan and have an interest in the cars, but there is little else going on in the 928 world up here. FYI, a bunch of MI 928 er's are going to be in Atlanta this weekend at PCNA headquarters for a big gathering of 928 faithful. A flight from Detroit is reasonably priced and you may consider reading the Rendezvous thread to see if it would be worth your wile to attend.

See you "Down the road"

Dave

I agree with the Dave K recommendation too. I trust him mine. If distance is an issue, that would be a little bit more challenging.

I third the Dave K recommendation. His user name is davek9 here. Jim D at 928 Classics in Frankenmuth may be worth a call to, also. Not sure if he does PPIs.

Ok thanks guys. Is Dave K - https://www.daveknappusedcars.com/ Dave Knapp? or are we talking about a specific individual at a different car shop? If so can someone let him know I would like to get in touch. I don't think I can send messages directly yet: yefluxATgmail. Thanks so much.

Else I will just call that shop.

I am pretty sure that is not David K's shop. He is more of a hobbyist type mechanic that does side jobs for others if I'm not mistaken. If you insist on a shop, might try Munks.

They are in Waterford, MI

He's got mine, I'll send him a note to contact you. He is very, very thorough and knows everything about these cars.

Hi all and thank you for the kind words and recommendation

Yeflux, the best way to contact me is here via PM at this time, we can exchange P #'s and go from there.

Booked up this week prepping cars for this weekend's get together in Atlanta, just brought one of mine back from Northern MI on Sunday, my son is driving it to the event.

What year is the one you are looking at purchasing?

Thank you,

Dave K

I sent him to Munks Motors, he's looking at a 2007 997 "C2S"
