Nice Shop, Stan!
I'll have to check it out some day if I can get off the Cape.
Strangely enough, I was born in Natick. 
Best Regards,
Jon from The Cape

| Nice find, great price. You have to love craigslist. I missed that ad, I guess I spend to much time browsing RI ads. I'm going to have to broaden my searches. |

I will stop in the next time I am down that way! |

That's my panel in the pics of Stan's Shop.
I finally got to meet Stan yesterday. He's a great guy and runs a nice neat little shop. He's done excellent work getting my 67 panel running since it was tucked into a barn 16 years ago.
If you need work done in MA, get yourself (and your VW) over to Stan.

Had a very busy October in the shop. Early in the month I had a couple vehicles to get ready in time for the big Transporterfest show in Brookline, MA.
'65 Bug got rebuilt king pin assemblies.
Also sorted out some bent wheels and one out-of-round tire on '65 Bug.
'78 Convertible got a cleaned out fuel tank, which finally solved fuel supply issues.
'58 Ghia got a different distributor and is running much better now.
'82 Westy got new front control arm upper bushings and some fall maintenance before getting stored away for winter.
'70 Westy wiper shaft replacement and some fall maintenance before getting stored away for winter.
Hopefully the long term project '67 panel will be moving along in November.
And finally, after driving around so many different convertibles, I went out and got one of my own. Nothing too fancy, but a good driver that is fairly solid.
Towbar setup worked great, but I had to stop and free up the stuck rear brakes.
My daughter already wants this one.

. It's not too bad though, and a decent driver, but they all need lots of TLC...
