VW Floor Pan Replacement
If it looks like Fred Flinstone should be driving your car, it may be time for VW floor pan replacement in Bellingham. Failed seals and trapped moisture that lead to floor rust and structural issues are common in many VW models. We can source new VW pans from top manufacturers to ensure a perfect fit.
Body Panel Replacement
After many years on the roads, doors, fenders, trunk lids and other panels are likely to be dinged, dented and rusted, sometimes beyond repair. Vintage Vulture sources and installs new panels, including core body section and roofs, for all aircooled VW models. We understand that gap alignment is key and will ensure any panels we install are perfectly lined up. Whether your car suffered an accident or is undergoing restoration, we can help!
Aircooled VW Rust Repair
Rust is a prevalent issue for many classic VWs. We can completely rid your ride of it using quality replacement panels and custom fabrication. Common areas of rust include rockers, floors, heater channels, battery trays and around the windows, but let’s face it: VWs suffer from rust issues all over. No matter how rust is affecting your car, we can make it disappear.
