> a good repair/auto body shop for VW vans in the Vancouver area? > Cheers, Adria 794 Broadway East Vancouver, BC (604) 872-8512 Rudy & Peter Motors Ltd 225 2nd Avenue East, Vancouver, BC V5T 1B6 there is also the beetle shop out in surrey

but ya know at any given moment any one of the so called good shops can stick it too ya I drop my 85 off for 4 items today 1) crimp 2 eyelets on 2 runs of 2 gage wire to the positive of side of a battery terminal 2) loosen the p/s reservoir cap & not break it 3) Test a BA6 heater blower motor (eg simple test is the motor good/bad dont trouble shoot any thing else on heater) 4) and the Bigger item drill out the casing around the oil drain plug so i can get a fram sd2 oil drain valve in & remove it with a socket

I could do all the items above but im busy with some other tasks and i just did my dual batt install so i kn w the exact time it took me to solder eyelets on 2 gage wire, crimping with an industrial crimp should be much less youd think ...wrong

any guess as to the mind numbing bill i got when i picked it up from a reputable 3rd party german shop
