Atlanta mechanics????   Hmmmm....  Import Service Center, formerly in
Little 5 Points, has moved over on Dekalb Avenue across from the Candler
Park Marta Station.  They rebuilt my '72 Bus engine in '81, and my '81 this
Summer.  One third of their business is still air cooled, and the rest is,
alas, water cooled and current models. Nothing personal.   I believe they
are very honest, but work does take somewhat longer than originally talked
about.  The owner is Dan Sullivan, an old VW person who is nice and
pleasant to deal with (20+ years experience).  I believe that they do good
work at fair prices, but you would be well served to go back and check
their external work--I found more than a few loose screws and fuel line
clamps that needed immediate attention (=tightening) by me after my van
came back from them.  Email me for more details.

Regards, Christina and Mike Nichols, Druid Hills Atlanta '81 Weekender
