    Help in Lake Havasu City

    Don't know if this is the correct place to post this, but I am trying to find if there is someone in the Lake Havasu City, Arizona area that could help my father maintain a '71 911E. He just moved there from Nebraska, and doesn't know many people in the area. I drove the car out there 2 weeks ago, (about 1,400 miles), neat trip, few problems, but needs some TLC. He is 85 but loves that car. Hard for him to get under the car to do any maintainance, If there is anyone that can help, or knows of someone, please let me know and I will get the info to him. Thank You, Jon S. Blocker Corpus Christi, Tx.

    These guys are a Porsche transmission shop but I'm sure he'll know a shop. It very well may be the one recommended above. I've never had my car worked on there, all though I do have a home out there. Summers too hot for the car with no AC. I'll stick to the boat.

    Ray Stevens is your guy.

    He sold his Porsche shop in Costa Mesa several years ago and relocated to the land flowing with milk and honey.
    He has a nice shop at his home and would probably love to help your dad out.

    Or he can make the trek 3 hours east to Scottsdale where there's a decent shop.

    Just a note note to thank you guys for replying! My Dad just called me yesterday and let me know, he just got in contact with the guys at Ollies Engineering, and was really impressed with the operation. He then got in touch with Ray Stevens, went over and met him, and set up an appointment to have his car checked over on Monday morning. This site is why I still drive Porsches, and why my Dad has the opportunity to still enjoy his. Thank you again for the help.
