Rod Penrose is the expert.
I'd rather wear a Beetle out by racing it than by polishing it!

go see the Bergs
Also check out Wolfsburg West, check out Pomona as they also have VW shows on.
In terms of eating check out Beni Hanna and In n Out Burger along with Mexican restaurants

Wolfsburg West is cool to visit but it is a fairly decent drive from Anaheim (disney area). There are lots of cool shops to see depending on what
you're into. I'd definitely go and see Vee Dub Parts Unlimited - ask to speak to Jeff Alvarez as he is a really great guy (lots of great parts at
good prices). Obviously Bergs, and Heads Up Performance (Roger Crawford), plus FAT Performance if you're into more the performance side. Resto shops
- Octavios (Kustom 1 upholstery) and West Coast Classic Restorations (Lenny Copp) plus a heap others if thats what you're into.
Lots of cool stuff to see and great people to meet.

not sure that the floor pans will fit in the suitcase! 
West coast classic would be good, and wolfsburg west.
Does anyone know what happened to BFY Obsolete?>

Yeah were going to Vegas, that should be great!
I did Disney World and universal in Florida back in 1997, so i've sort of done it so to speak.
But Universal in LA is supposed to be the best
