Yup! They have people all over the country dropping pieces and parts off for work. While I was looking at my parts I noticed a V8 block for some guy named Tony and asked Mike if they had another Jalpa in for work and he told me that Tony drops of parts for them to work on. I also know that they finished a stripped Countach engine for a man that owns a body shop and is restoring his car.

Call them at 614-471-7535.

18 months. WOW you have the patience of Jobe.
It will be well worth it.
Looks fantastic.
Keep posting photos, and have a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year driving your Jalpa as soon as she's back.
