Hi Guys,
I recently moved down from Cape Town to Addo elephant park in the eastern cape. I drove down with my beetle and would like to get in touch with a reputable beetle mechanic in either PE, uitenhage or Grahamstown that can help me tune the bug and keep it tip top while I'm here in Addo for the year.
If anyone can recommend someone please gime a shout.

There's a guy who builds trikes, who is apparently quite good. I think Fighterkombi, look him up on the forum, will have his contact details. He did a slightly hot engine for his bus. I know he does engines more for the love of it than as a business so it probably won't be a rush job.
