Hello everyone. I'm new to the Samba.com and I love it! Kudos to Everett for providing an amazing site for all air-cooled fanatics.

Where would I start to look for listings of quality, custom and performance oriented VW shops in Georgia? I want a one stop professional place for more than just tune-ups. These type shops seem to be few and far between over here.

My 73 Thing has been with me 13 years (first car) and I'd like to keep the mods coming. Unfortuately, I'm not the best with a wrench for the major stuff such as suspension lift (adjustments), roll cage fabrication or engine upgrades.

Any help would be greatly appreciated and I look forward to hearing about it!

Try Herrells in Carrolton, GA. They have an ad in VW Trends. I can't find the number, but will email you when I do.

Thanks for the tip [email protected]!

You know, I've been reading these publications since I was 9 (Hot VW's mostly) and I didn't even think to look for ads from GA. Good grief.

I appreciate the help.

I immediately went searcing this morning! Thanks for the thorough quickness guys. It looks like Herrell's is about 3 hours away.

I'll have to take a nice drive over to visit.

Thanks again!

All Around Restos is located near Gainesville Ga. They do everything from tuneups to complete restorations. They also carry some common replacement parts. I don't have their address or phone but can get it later if you are interested. The Sept meet in Toccoa was cancelled and a substitute meeting will be held at All Around Restos during the same time period. Plan on coming. I will provide more info if anyone is interested.
