Somday we won't have a guy like Blase (BUGSHACK) that has devoted his life to the aircooled VW world. Years ago these cars were desired because of the gas crunch. Now 40 50 + years later here we are keeping these cars alive restoring them and the values are going up.
So I have known Blase for a while and he always makes time to find me a good part im dying to find for my cars and its not some aftermarket P.O.S. I guarantee if you get a part from him that is damaged or doesn't work he will make it right.
Keep up the great work that you do Blase!!!!

Bought a set of gauges for my karmann ghia, posted quickly and well packaged, answered my requests to see close up photos of the gauges and they were in the condition as was described. What else can you ask for?
Great service and thank you once again. |

I purchased a '69 and down front bumper off a Karmann Ghia from these Ventura, California gentlemen and it arrived today. The ad said nice chrome and complete and by gosh, I think they understated the condition in the ad, it's AWESOME!!! Carefully packed, all the original hardware, nothing siezed and broken off, all the brackets, no rust, jeez, to think I was considering rechroming mine for about 3x the price of this bumper!
Thanks! I will not hesitate to do business with you again! Why can't everybody do business like these guys! I am going to have one sweet looking Ghia when I get this thing on it! |

I am very pleased with the item which I purchased. The part was a used part, but was cleaned by cfri2899... it looked like a new part. I just installed the part in my vehicle and it works fine. The price of the item was very fair and S&H were very reasonable. Five stars for cfri2899. |

Picked up a set of baby webers from seller. The description showed dual port manifolds in the photo, but I needed single ports. I emailed him and asked if he would discount the already cheap price in lieu of removing the dual port manifolds. He said no worries, I have a set of polished single ports I will include for you. Paid that night via paypal and had a tracking number the next day. Sans UPS taking 4 days to ship the carbs 54 miles, the transaction went good. When I received the package it was well boxed, but upon opening it up I found that the fuel inlet nipple on one of the carbs was cracked badly. It appeared as if maybe the box was thrown in the back of the truck or dropped on my door step and hit the corner of the carb. I immediately got ahold of the seller and he offered to ship out a new nipple the next day. Can't argue with the price or service. Definitely a stand up guy!

Not happy with this guy. Emailed him about a part. He said he had. Asked if I could pick up the next day, he said no problem. Call if you need directions. So I head out there ask for Lewis. Assuming Lewis is who I emailed, and tell him I am here for the parts on the samba. He has no clue what I am talking about. He says, I dont even think I have those anymore. I said thats strange I just emailed you yesterday and you said you had it. He tells me oh no thats Carter. You emailed him. I said thats funny he even signed the email with Lewis. So Carter is pretending to be Lewis. I drove an hour to Ventura to pick these up, just to be told he doesnt have them. Wasted 2 hours of my time with this BS. |

He seems kinda busy. Does not really know if he has what he's offering for sale. I inquired about some Porsche Parts and I got an e-mail back with a price including shipping and an extra 5% for his PayPal fee. I agreed and sent it. He didn't even have the part anymore, he tells me AFTER I called him to ask about it (it never arrived and paid him for Next Day shipping).
He then offered to sell me an entire steering column, for more money, and I agreed and paid, and then was told later that same day that he had an inquiry on the car the column was coming out of and he didn't want to sell the column because a potential buyer would not want the car without it.
I understand all that.
DON'T OFFER PARTS FOR SALE THAT YOU DON'T HAVE OR ARE NOT WILLING TO PART WITH. COLLECTING MONEY AND REFUSING TO DELIVER IS FRAUD. IF YOU'RE SO SMALL TIME THAT YOU CAN'T MANAGE WHAT YOU'VE GOT, STOP SHORTCHANGING PEOPLE TRYING TO CONDUCT AN HONEST, SIMPLE TRANSACTION. _________________ 1966 FrankenPorsche |

I bought a engine lid from him and it arrived promptly and was in great condition. I would definitely purchase again from Lewis and recommend him to anyone.
