I am new here.
I am finally bringing my 73 super beetle back after 27 yrs of storage.
Needs may arise for some machine shop works on the engine. I am in San Francisco East bay.
Can some one recommend a good machine shops specifically for VW.

Thanks.

Location: Crappy town in a crappy state. But the beach is nearby, so I have that going for me.

Thanks. Yes I am looking around San Francisco.
I will call Jansen Enterprises. Their sites thru Yelp seems it has been hacked!

I am in San Lorenzo/Hayward and have the same problem. The old VW guys retired. I have been sending my case work down to Brothers VW but Ed's Crankshafts in Hayward does a great job on grinding/polishing/balancing work.

I used Ken Jansen in Belmont. Give him a ring. He's the best.
