Photos from the Conway Expo Annual Car Show
The boys cruised up to check out the car show this past Saturday. We saw some sweet rides, but surprisingly no German steel. We should team up and change that for next year. Funny enough, we cruised up in our ‘91 Vanagon and got lots of love. Perhaps we’ll sign up our ‘59 ragtop when it’s done for next year. It’ll be a treat having a little Beetle steal all the thunder despite all the horsepower beasts all over the venue.

The teardown on the ‘69 Karmann Ghia is complete. We’ve got the body off the pan and it’s time to get to work. Tons of small efforts add up to a big finish with chassis overhaul, and this video is simply here for future comparative work 🤘🏼

Multiple floor pan replacements, wiring harnesses, interior overhauls, typical brake and fuel work, diagnosis and repair, just the mixed bag of classic attention.

Beetles, Supers, Ghias, Splits, and Vanagons. Generations of VW classics, all being sorted and improved for miles ahead.
Happy Spring folks! We’ll see you guys soon at the shows ✌🏼

Trés Vochos 🪲
Just a few of the projects going out this week in the shop. Off camera we have a pair of Vanagons, a rough Ghia coupe awaiting restoration, and a 72 Beetle who’s list of to-do’s seems to be growing weekly. Add amongst the batch a few local cars coming in for maintenance, and we’ve got busy days ahead. Thank you folks -Sam

Absolutely rotten luggage tray being replaced on this 1969 Standard Beetle Sedan. Got to love someone’s previous repair of a rusted donor section, sheet metal screws, and liquid nail. Thanks for that whoever you are!

Shop effort the last few weeks. Ragtops, Convertibles, Ghias, Beetles, Vanagons. Brake work, wiring harnesses, metal work, engine builds, maintenance, resurrections, you name it.

All different models. All different years. All different jobs. For the sake of one understood goal: to get your classic Volkswagens back on the road, safely, dependably, for years to come.

We hope everyone has had a loved-filled, laughter inducing, peaceful time over the past few Holiday weeks. Thank you for continuing to select us as your trusted partners in keeping your vintage VW’s out of your garages and on the streets.

Happy New Year everyone - Sam

1972 Super Beetle
We’ve had many people in the shop over the last week, and one common denominator? Everyone saying “that’s a nice bug!” And while yes, it is indeed a great looking car, much like many things, details matter and it’s what’s under the fresh paint that one should base its merit.
Broken brake bleed valves, missing grease caps, lack of cotter pins, spray paint soaked, chomped up wiring, new parts installed on components that are well beyond their limits, the list of shotty work was endless.
As you can see in the teardown photo, out with the old wiring, all of the worn out steering components, brakes overhauled, with much more work to complete to get this car to the place where everything thinks it’s currently at (all because of a paint job).
So on your next potential classic VW purchase, do yourself and your wallet a big favor. Look beyond the color scheme. Perhaps even getting a little dirty crawling around it might save some time and expense, but it very well could save yourself from a dangerous outcome.
