Hi my name is shannon,
aka fluffybits
I have moved from canberra where my car was being serviced by Nick @ Volksparts and am in need of a mechanic up here in sydney...
any one got any recomendations?
shannon
Where abouts in Sydney are u located might be easier to advise that way, or perhaps some where close to yr work
Or you could ask Nick who he suggests :alien
sorry about not giving all of the vitals, i am in the eastern suburbs. I have spoken to Nick and he couldn't really recommend any one. I been to wolfsburg, but would rather not go back there...
Sorry Shannon
I forgot to ask what year and model car you have,.
i have got a 61 beetle, i have just put a new 1600 unleaded engine in decemver which was done by nick...
Well thers a place at Kensingston, but you might find it similar to the experiences youve already had
You could try Vintage Vee Dub Supplies at Campsie just down the M5 9789-1777
Whereabouts are you working
suprised Nick didnt want to recomend
i nkow it's not the closest to you and he doesn't specifically do vw's, but a class auto at castle hill does my t 3 wagon and has been the family mechanic for years. used to work on vw years ago and can fix virtually any motor put in front of him, that i learned when he serviced the old man's 42 foot boat. if you want a number for him i can give it to you
i've used mullers in lakemba for my vr6, but i think they do more work on late models vw's and audis and less on the early models, although stephen does know his stuff..
a bit closer to the eastern suburbs is a mechanic we use for a lot of our cars in stock, he has done a lot of work on our ovals and kombis and has done everything really well, and not expensive at all. the name is south sydney auto centre in st peters, tony is the owner, the number is 9565 2999.
let me know if you do call him, i'll speak to him as well to make sure he looks after you.
