VW mechanics??? - YurtGirl - 11-25-2008
I just bought a beautiful '74 VW bus and am wondering if anyone knows of any good VW mechanics around here. I'm even willing to go to the west side if I must. Nothing major wrong at this point, but I want to be prepared, it's not my first Volkswagen!
VW specifically is what I'm looking for, not just an all around good mechanic. Mahalos, have a great day all!

YurtGirl,
There was a guy in Kona that only worked on VW's and really knows his stuff. He worked out of a barn next to his house. Call the auto parts store in Kona [Mc'Goo's] or something like that they all know him and may have his number.
You should see the smokers that I built. Stop by sometime when you can.

Every kid in Hawaii used to be a VW specialist. ha ha
I envy you. the VW bus is one of my favorite things.
They are so simple to work on. you might learn some stuff yourself.
