If you have been out of touch with ACO for a while you should know that Jay Moore passed away in November of 2009
Chis and I (Pete) have been at the helm since October of 2009
This is intended to be a feedback thread for the "new" ACO.
If we have serviced your car, you are a current customer or have purchased parts from us please leave a comment here.
We thank you for your business,
Chris Predmore

These guys are awesome! I Blew a clutch in My 1977 transporter coming down the Mountain on 89 towards Prescott AZ ( i was on my way to california). These guys treated me as if i knew them for a very very long time. They went way beyond any Mechanic ever has for me. And they did their jobs very efficiently and even helped me out with any questions. I highly highly recommend them to anyone who owns an air cooled, they will get you out and back on the road in no time. I wish they lived where i was, because they are really the only vw mechanics i have ever really trusted with my vdubb. Thanx guys for everything and hopefully we will meet paths someday. hopefully sooner than later.

Dealt with Chris regarding a ICT carb kit he had for sale.
Exellent all round service, prompt shipping quote & shipping, stuff was well boxed and arrived in South Africa as promissed.
Will deal again with him, no problem. _________________ 42 year old technology & still kicking butt. |

|

I cant say enough about ACO in Prescott, AZ. These guys have it all when it comes to air cooled VWs. Purchased a bug locally and ran it for a while on the original rebuilt engine. Fried a cyclinder one day coming up the grade from Cottonwood AZ toward Prescott. Had it towed to their shop and the adventure begins! They tore it apart and I decided to go with a new engine instead of another rebuild. They suggested a few options for the new engine and started the buying process. The new engine is amazing! They guys at ACO communicated the process very well to me and kept me informed on all aspects of the build and install. Highly recommend ACO for their communication, efficiency, honesty, and dam good work. Thanks guys!

Pete helped me out with some parts decisions, got them shipped out quick and was helpful after the sale with questions. I will definitely buy from them again. _________________ RPM=(MPH*336* (R&P*4th*1.26))/Tire Diameter in inches |

|
|
I just bought a 4-tab hood and 2 ribbed rear fenders for my '59 ragtop project, all of which are in very good condition for a reasonable price.
Yes, I know the fenders aren't specifically for my year, but at least I know they're truly OG.
I would go back to these guys anytime I'm in AZ (I live in CA).

We would like to thank all of you who have taken some of your time to post feedback regarding our transactions.
It is because of all our customers (both local & web based) that we have been able to relocate the shop to a much improved location @ 611 Division St. Prescott, AZ 86301.
Inevitably, considering the monumental task of moving our shop, some of you may have been "back-burnered" or just plain lost in the mix.
We thank you all for your business and patience during the move and if it's been a while since we've been in contact, please feel free to contact us again.
As we settle in to our new digs things get more & more organized by the day and we look forward to serving you all in an improved capacity very soon.

I purchased (on March 4 or 5, 2016) a pair of Vanagon tail light assemblies from Air Cooleds Only. They were exactly as described, reasonable price and fast shipping. Excellent. They will be put to good use!
