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.
