Honest and reliable air-cooled VW repair. Not often you find old school help nowadays with your old Bug. Bob and his team really care about keeping these classics on the road.

Bob is a passionate VW mechanic with unmatched local experience in classic VWs. You won't find a better guy to work on your classic VW. If your looking for a place with a fancy office and free water while you wait, this is not the place for you, but if you are looking for a no frills shop that is simply interested in getting your classic running in as top top shape as possible and a mechanic that is upfront, fair, and very detailed, then look no further.

I met Bob when I took my 1979 VW Bug, Upon meeting him his VW mechanical knowledge / expertise was evident, when done with my car I immediately could tell the difference on how it performed, in short… If you have a vintage VW Bob is the person you need. J. Reyes 11/2021

Nice guys in there. Very busy

The best. My "new" 68 Bus was in sad shape, especially after a bad mechanic worked on it. Bob has a great way to teach one about what he will do, possibly, and what to expect. Then he asks you to come back after he determines what is happening and what he will do. He showed me the parts and what was wrong. I am so happy he fixed my Bus. The engine purrs, well sort of. It's a 68 Bus. Excellent work and extremely reasonable prices.

He knows his stuff. Good mechanic and super friendly.


Dec 06, 2018

Honest, efficient, and interesting, just like the cars they work on, this IS THE PLACE!!!


Dec 06, 2018

I went to Bob's Bug Barn to see if he had a used door to replace my beyond repair Beetle door. He had a lot of doors and took the time to check each one to make sure I got a good one that didn't have too much play in the hinges and that it was a good solid door. He then washed it prior to giving it to me. He could have pointed at the doors and told me to pick one (I wouldn't have checked the hinges, etc.). He is a real down to earth guy that is extremely knowledgeable, friendly, and has very fair prices.

Only mechanic in the world to whom I would entrust my precious vintage VW convertible
