Ken Maggot, former workshop manager of Beetle Buddies for 12 years then eventualy left them for eithical reasons, is back in SA and operating from Strijdompark, JHB. All ex BB 'rebuilds' with problems welcome and Ken will try his damdest to rectify the problems that many of us have put up with for years. My BB is now going better than before - AND - not a drop of oil in the driveway !
Who else will come out and tow your broken down baby at no cost and tell you like it is, no excuses and always willing to make a plan ? The shop always looks busy when I have been there. (He has a good looking '53 and '58 in for complete restoration)
Call Ken on 011 793 1712, during working hours. Marlene will probably answer the phone and probably get Ken on the line for emergencies / quick help, otherwise he always calls back.
Happy that Ken is back and, keeping my BB.

I wish him luck.BB doesn't have a good name and it will take lots of effort to rectify that.

Maybe Mince should have bought that Oval after all. He could have had it fixed up by this guy 

If it's too low, you're too old
