I dont know anything about there work, but if you do have to go in for somthing try chatting him up about SCCA Pro Rally. I believe he used to have a Group B Audi and raced it all over the place, my wife and I helped roll his car back over onto all four wheels, and get him out of the middle of a Stage at the STPR Rally up in Pennsylvania in 2001. II bet if you mention your a rally fan and know some spectators that helped roll him back onto his wheels, you might get on his good side. David

Its run by a older gentleman named Bruno Kreibich. My work had me driving in that area, and I saw only VW's and Audis out front, so I went and grabbed a card. Asked if he would work on Vanagons, he tersely replies "yes." This could be a good resource for new yorkers who can't make the haul out to Dennis Haynes'. I wanted to inquire as well: How many NYC vanagon/bus owners are on the list? I my neighborhood (NW brooklyn) there's seems to be an ever growing number. With in a couple blocks of my house theres a 68 camper, a diesel westy and a few 80's vanagons. To the south in Willliamsburg, it seems there are even more. It almost sounds like it's time for someone to organize a communal garage, like I think I remember hearing about in Portland OR, or for a good mechanic to open shop. -Matt Sutton 88GL
