    Wanted: independent shop for air cooled 911s in Clear Lake area, South of Houston

    Wanted: Indy shop for air cooled in Clear Lake area
    I have need for a local shop to do oil change, tune, and some light mechanical work on my 1973 targa, and it’s good running 3.2 liter Motronic engine.
    I am in the Friendswood area and want to find a good shop south of the loop 8 area, anywhere up to include Galveston I guess.
    Appreciate any input, experience, in this regard. I have moved here from Austin and have no contacts.

    Personally, I'd go an hour the other way and see Warren at Callas Rennsport in Sealy.

    Bill - Einar’s Garage is in downtown Houston. He works on older and newer Porsches. He may even know someone a bit closer to you. Warren at Rennsport is excellent.

    Just an update, the car is at Rennsport now, all going well so far... more like 2 hours from where I am, 75 or so highway miles.. Great folks, impressive body of work present.
