*Here's what's listed on Larry's mechanics list - unfortunately it looks like the really good guy in Rapid City has moved away. I spent some time at his shop too - a lot of us did! Good luck, I hope you can find someone to help!

*Larry Chase <roadguy@roadhaus.com> writes:* Roadhaus blew a piston ... Rocky and Mike rebuilt the engine after piston failure, installing new German OE Pistons, reverting the 2.2L Eurocars engine back to a stock 2.1L. Great attention to detail and quality of work. Fair prices and very honest. Total hours worked much more than hours billed. Really cared about helping get me back on the road with as reliable an engine as possible. Also, camped in front of the shop. Each night we pushed the Van out of the service bay and plugged into Rockys electric. Each morning we pushed her back in. Now that's service IMHO!

Paul gave me a number for a tow truck. Then later he came down picked it up and put a new Go Westy engine in it within a few days. Then he dropped it off at the airport in Rapid City for my convenience. I had to fly back in from Minneapolis to get it. Excellent service all the way around!! Great guy!! So if your VW breaks down in the Black Hills area...call Paul Kay Imports!
