    Norwoods and/or Boardwalk Ferrari. I'd lean toward Norwoods, because they see more of the older cars.

    Is that the blue 328?

    Boardwalk Ferrari is located in Plano. In addition, there is a company called 'City Garage' in the DFW area that does pre purchase inspections, and they have two locations in Plano.

    Call Norwoods.

    City Garage knows nothing about Ferraris. They fix Nissans and Fords.

    What level of " inspection " are you wanting? Shoot me a PM with detail's if you prefer.

    Thank you for the referral.

    BTW, things have changed over the past year, example of some of the older cars we're serviced in the last 2 weeks:

    1988 328
    1992 512
    1974 Dino
    1995 F50
    1995 512 TR
    2001 360
    1997 355
    1999 360
    1987 TR
    1988 TR
    2003 Enzo

    Thank you for the referral.

    City Garage may be the other end of the spectrum , all dependiong on what type of inspection the buyer is looking for.


    We're happy to help, just le me know what I can do for you.

    I think we're all still adjusting to the "Boardwalk services older cars" paradigm change! :)

    Steve is right down the road from the dealer where your car is. Almost close enough to walk.

    Spoke to a guy, Gary at Euro Sport Auto, he's all booked up till the end of the month he recommended a guy Doug Stuart. I spoke to him and it sounds like he's familiar with these cars.
    Nothing set in stone yet though

    You could also ask Robert Rodgers at ShadeTree Enginetrics in Navada, Texas. He works on older Ferraris and services many 308s and 328s. His phone number is 972-843-8134. Navada is located about 20-30 minutes from Plano.
