I tried to buy 5 Westfalia curtain rods from Todd. He asked me which type of Westy I had and he refunded me for one rod that would not fit on my cargo door.
Items were shipped quick and as described!
Nice work Todd...
pleasure doin' business with you!

Bought a nice VW tool from Todd and it went about as smooth as possible. Once you get a hold of him it is all up hill from there.

GREAT PACKING and nice to deal with.

Thanks,

David Wellington

Todd is "da man".

Last month Todd posted an ad for a Sun 600 distributor machine for a very inexpensive price. I was the 3rd view and even though it said "local pickup", I emailed him and asked if he'd be willing to ship it as long as I paid for it. I explained that I rebuilt distributors and would put it to good use.

Now he could of said no, he could of realized that he was selling it for too little and asked for more or he could of sold it to the first person who got it out of his garage. He told me it was mine and he wasn't in a rush to get it out. We talked about the options of me driving out to pick it up, but the 20 hours to drive back and forth and the expense of a motel room was more than the cost of the machine and more than the cost of shipping. I told Todd that i'd happily pay for everything up front and sent him payment. He said it would take a few days to crate it and get it out and I told him I was not in a rush.

The next day my friend Danny told me that he was taking a certification course in Ohio and as it turns out he would be just a few miles from Todd. I contacted Todd and told him not to ship it, that it would be picked up and to hold onto the shipping money till Danny arrives. Then he can just give Danny a personal check when he got the machine. The next morning I received a email from Paypal with the refund.

A week later Danny got the machine and I got it a few days later.

Todd is a true man of his word and friend to all VW lovers. He's welcome at my dinner table anytime. Don't hesitate for a second to do business with him.

Todd, if you're ever on Long Island I owe you a steak dinner.

I purchased a 1956-1959 Beetle steering wheel in desperate need of restoration from Todd. Not only did he sell me the wheel but also included a Deluxe horn button! He could have gotten more than what he was asking for this combo....very reasonable person to deal with. What suprised me most the the fact that I received this very well packaged item ony a day or so later....! Escellent Customer Service! Thanks Todd!

Bought an early Split front bench seat set from Todd. I'm very satisfied with what showed up! Wasn't cheap, but certainly worth the price I paid. He was very easy to work with and did exactly what he promised to do on packaging and shipping... Thanks again Todd

This seller is a thesamba veteran, the good kind! I met Todd decades ago out at SoCal bus meets. Knows his stuff, ships quick and packs well. Have no fear!
