Too far south for you, but if you were able to get to the north Seattle, this guy could be of service:

Louis Foreign Car Repair
7301 Roosevelt Way NE
Seattle, WA. 98115
206-524-3366
[email protected]

I know there are a couple of VW shops in Bellingham (John's VW, down in Fairhaven, might still be around).

208 McKenzie Ave
Bellingham, WA 98225
Phone number (360) 733-1982

Jon's Repair
208 McKenzie Ave
Bellingham, WA 98225
Phone number (360) 733-1982



Northwest European autoworks
360-715-3876 (EURO)
2101 Queen Street
Bellingham, WA 98229

Both of these companies have been great for me.
Jon's repair is by appointment only I believe, so leave a message and he will get back to you.

Northwest European Auto hosts many car enthusiast events including VANAPALOZA, June 17th 2017!!

There is another "vanagon specialist" in Bellingham but I can't remember the name. I don't think they advertise, but the other two shops may know who it is. "Referrals only" or something like that.

Awesome, thanks guys! I appreciate the replies, I'll be looking into these shops.
I'm hoping to back around for Vanapaloza! I'll be heading back from bonnaroo the week before.

Oh, and there is Nate at Provolks in Anacortes. He is a super nice guy, I would trust him with my ride.

Thanks for the suggestions... I just added these shops to the VanAlert app to help other Vanagon owners. Much appreciated.
