Medina is south east of Cleveland It may be an hr plus away, Rich Johnson and his son Eric at Backstreet performance is an excellent shop and they know cars. I am sure you can find one closer but if not they are on the internet. good luck

Steinels Autowerks in Twinsburg is the best Porsche shop in OH IMO. Would be couple hour drive from Toledo though. Their number is 330.425.8582. If there's any issues with the car, Steinels will find it.

Steinel's Autowerks
2002 Midway Dr.
Twinsburg, OH 44087

Or perhaps call them to see if they can recommend anyone for you.

Can't argue with Eric Steinel ( excellent) in Cleveland, but that is quite a distance from Toledo. There are a few places closer... Miracle Mile Collision in Toledo has done a lot of work on my 911 and 993. He does a lot of local pcar race work. Ron Winter ( also recommended by TRG when I bought some suspension parts for my GT3) 419 473-1157. 45 min north of Toledo in Ann Arbor is Tim Pott at ArborMotion (734) 761-1088. He is the main local indie Porsche mechanic for our region, lots of experience, and very helpful. Let me know if I can help. I work in Toledo and know the area very well.

Come on guys... the guy lives in Atlanta!! Would you have a car delivered 2 hours each way for a PPI?? No way. Even if money was no object, I'm not sure how it could be arranged (even if he flew up there himself).

A PPI is not rocket science...
