Zotz get a lot of respect, as does Redbone (944/951s get mucho love at redbone!) but I was going to suggest Dave White. -Dave made my custom 951 roll cage and his work really IS first-rate. -I'm bound by a sworn oath to only take mine to Redbone unless it's an emergency, but everyone tells me that Zotz is very good to 944's/951's also.

My friend with an almost concours 951 in Tampa also only takes his to Dave White, so I don't have any other recommendations for you... -sorry.

I took my car to Dave White not too long ago and they said that if I left them the car for a few days, they'd be able to compile a list of things they would be able to fix. I think I'll at least see what they have to say about it.

so kiyoskia - did you get the body damage fixed from the parking lot deal? or is that part of what you are ready to have fixed?

I've already found someone to do the bodywork, but I've decided to get a few other things (968 wing, rockers, mirrors and door handles) before fixing and repainting the car. I'd rather do it all in one swoop than pay for multiple trips to the shop.

ah yes - good time to get all the goodies and do a full repaint . Might think about euro rear bumper and front splitter and removing side trim also if that is your taste. All will require paint work.

I too like the 968 goodies (less the rockers)
