Any decent competent general mechanic will be able to work on a converted car. If you don't like all-makes garages, take it to a GOOD VW outfit for nonengine-related work, and for engine work take it to a GOOD outfit that deals with that make of engine. For modified electrics, take it to an outfit specializing in multimake electrics. Then again, if you live in a city of decent size there should be outfits who work on modified vehicles anyway. With luck they'll be competent. If a mewchanic refused to work on my hybrid because it's a hybrid, he's admitting incompetence, I wouldn't want him to get his hands on it anyway. a Subaru engine is a Subaru engine. Putting it in a VW bus doesn't alter it in any way. A Golf engine in an exboxerbus is no less a hybrid.
