The road From Rick's VW to Sunshine Auto Garage...
Rick's VW Repair 2004
Sunshine Auto Garage started when I walked away from my Management position of nearly 8-years at a Corporate owned, local mega-plex 20-screen
movie theater to buy Rick's VW Repair, as Rick was retiring.
Cleaning up the overgrown yard and distressed shop was a serious challenge.
There were over 100-VW's with trees and weeds growing out of them,
fire ant hills 3-feet high, and many stripped cars - abandoned and left
for dead in a true automotive junk yard. It was a depressing sight for
any classic VW enthusiast.

It reminded me of a scene in the movie "Herbie Fully Loaded" where poor Herbie was dropped off at a "Crazy Dave's" junk yard and left for scrap.
Those days are gone and Herbie is doin' just fine!
No more "junk yard" atmosphere here at the shop! Some of those
VW's from years past still remain here at the shop, along with some
new arrivals. These days they're given much more love and attention than
ever before, and now they're used for storage rather than being stripped down
for parts so they can someday be saved and put back on the road... After all:
"No VW should ever die"!
Thanks for stopping by!
