I know someone restoring his family's 57 PGSG 11 window bus. Although I have only seen it in photos it evidently needs a lot of rust repair. Does anyone have any good recommendations of where he can send his bus for repair please? He has already rescued it from the first shop who did nothing to it in the year that they had it.
He is Island based.

1971 Karmann Ghia Convertible 1998 - Now
1957 RHD Aussie CKD 11 Window Split Bus 2001 - Now
1973 1303 Beetle 1991 - 2014
1971 Karmann Ghia Coupe 1995 - 1998
1963 Canterbury Pitt Split Camper 1993 - 1994 RIP
1990 VW Scirrocco GT2 1998 - 2002
1984 Mk1 Golf GTI Champagne Edition 2002 - 2004

The next (dream) addition to the list? A Ghia coupe or early 911?

Shawn specializes primarily in metalwork nowadays, and he no longer paints VWs.

The eyesight just ain't what it used to be. Bummer.
