Topic: Need Boston Area Beetle Repair

I have just moved to Boston and own a 1974 VW standard beetle. Can
anyone one recommend a reputable repair shop that specializes in old
beetles? I want to get a new engine and trainy thrown in it.
Thanks for any help,

John

My search for an engine builder has lead me to the boston area. I'm
in Indiana, plan to mailorder. Bob Donalds at Boston Engine
Exchange really talks sense as a seasoned, very experienced builder.
I believe he focuses largely on busses, but your 1600cc is very
similar to some bus motors. call him at 508-653-7229, look him up
at www.bostonengine.com( read his articles), or better yet...stop by
the shop!
Then e-mail me back, because I plan to send my motor to him if enough
people tell me good things!
note:he will be in Cali from 2-19 thru 3-1 or so doing research on
his next article.Hope this is of some value to you
