VeeParts in National City is a great VW parts store. They have a
shocking amount of Vanagon parts right in stock at good prices and will
get almost anything else in a few hours. They are 40 miles from me but I
go there a lot. Beats waiting 2-4 weeks for that PA place to trickle my
parts to me. That PA place is great for camper and interior stuff and I
have bought a lot of nice stuff from them. When I need something NOW
VeeParts is the place.
Baja Dan used to be on this list but he hangs mostly on the Syncro and
Subaru conversion lists now. He lives about 5 mins from VeeParts, lucky
dog.
