I had my 85 Westy waterboxer rebuilt at 101,600 miles by Fast German Auto.
They did a great job at a very competitive price!  Prior to deciding on them
as the ones to do the job, I asked a lot of questions, for which they had
informed and experienced answers.  I have recommended them to others who
have had similar results...

One neat little trick they did was to install a 3 series BMW thermostat
which runs the wasserboxer at a lower temperature.  In addition, they were
very good at laying out the options for any additional work I wanted done at
the time...

Take care...Bob Marshburn
