// Services
If it's on a '49–'79 air-cooled Volkswagen and it moves, wears, leaks, or sparks, we service it — for owners in Bend, Sisters, Redmond, and the rest of Central Oregon. Bodywork and paint we leave to the specialists — and we're happy to recommend good ones.
Full rebuilds, top-end work, valve adjustments, oil changes with screen cleaning, and proper break-in procedures.
Solex and aftermarket carb rebuilds, jetting, linkage sync on dual setups, fuel tank and line renewal.
Swing-axle and IRS gearbox service, clutch replacement, shift coupler and linkage adjustment.
Drum service, wheel cylinders, master cylinders, hard and soft lines, and front disc conversions where appropriate.
King & link pins, ball joints, torsion arm bushings, steering boxes, and ride-height adjustment done right.
6-volt and 12-volt diagnosis, generator and alternator service, harness repair, and 12-volt conversions.
Tune-ups, valve adjustments every 3,000 miles, points and timing, and pre-trip inspections before the big drive.
Thinking about buying a Bug or Bus? We'll put it on the lift and tell you exactly what you're getting into.
// Shop notes
Every job starts with a conversation and a proper diagnosis. You get a written estimate before we turn a wrench, and a call before anything changes.
We use quality German and OE-spec parts wherever possible, and we'll always tell you when a reproduction part is worth it — and when it isn't.
// Quick reference
Describe the symptom — the noise, the smell, the drip — and we'll point you in the right direction.
