Hi
I own a 72 911t with mfi. The csr ia rust free but a but tired in places.
I am based in the United Arab Emirates and will be working with a local garage to mechanicaly and optically restore the car.
I need a one stop solution to purchase and ship the parts. My question is which companies would people recommend for me to source mechanical, trim and interior parts? Both from a quality, price and service perspective

Depends what actually you need. You might need a few suppliers and some parts might be quite difficult to get hold of.
I've not had to source much for my car, but I usually go direct to Porsche .
There are some big dealers in Europe who will be able to source rare stuff... Can't off the top of my head remember their co names

Joma parts in Belgium and Rose Passion in France have proved to be good sources of pretty much everything (a lot of it genuine Porsche) at reasonable prices, and they will entertain discounts if you commit to large purchases, or 'sole trader' type arrangements.

They are a good company too but we use them a little less because of the import tax and postage cost. However, you are outside the EU so that isn't a concern to you.
