Q. Can I get discounts by being a club member?
A. Yes, many club sponsors offer discounts upon presentation of your membership card.
Q. I live in the Houston area. Where can I get something fixed?
A. "Newbies" to the Volkswagen community (some as young as teen agers) are enthusiastic about owning and operating older air cooled VW's. Unfortunately, these vehicles are now 25 to 50 years old, with more than one spin around on the odometer dial. Frequently, they need some type of repair to pass a vehicle inspection or, sometimes even be able to drive, at all.
Fortunately, there are numerous books and manuals to help those even slightly mechanically adept but, sometimes we just don't have the time or skill to do a repair. The question is, where can I pay someone to fix what I can't or don't want to do?
Actually, there are several club members and other VW enthusiasts that do a little "Moonlighting" when they have time. But, they have a normal daytime job and, you may be in a rush to make it to the "Texas Classic".
