Hello I am looking for someone to potentially do some work on a beetle for me. I live in the middle part of MD and am looking for pretty much all kinds of work. Ive been looking around at a few rust buckets and am willing to do some of the less intimidating work, but up front I would need floor boards, heater channels, etc... If you or someone you know does legit work please forward me their information.

Thanks

Pardon my ignorance, what is LF?
To many DMV means Division of Motor Vehicles.
Where is the middle part of MD? Near Baltimore? DC? Not the Eastern Shore?

A little more info and a straightforward title may reap better info for you.

As to looking at rustbuckets, you will be better off shipping something in from a dry state, unless rust repair and welding are in your skill set.

I would say LF is looking for, and DMV is D.C., Maryland, Virginia area?

Anyways, Bob Cook is the master Aircooled Restoration specialist in MD.

Like my59 mentions, the cleaner the canvas to start with, the less overall cost you usually have in a restoration.

I fixed the title and updated it. Sorry for the confusion. A lot of people call Maryland D.C. VA DMV because everything is so close and tight knit.
