Hi guys!
I am looking for an honest, reliable mechanic that knows beetles and will not take me for a ride! I don't have tools to do the things I would like to do, time is always against me so if any one knows of a place/guy that I can go to in the east rand area I would apppreciate it!
Things I need looked at on Herbie are as follows
Front torsion bar bushes to be replaced
A leak that I needs to be looked at,
Issue with overheating and a loss of power!
I also don't have thousands to spend, so it will be bit by bit!
Herbie Will be taking a long rest as I don't want to drive him around anymore, untill I have those issues sorted!
Thanks!
