Johns Caddy project had some attention, this is what i found and had to cut out under the new and really badly fitted OS outer sill. when some one tells you i can weld that for you!! be aware this could be what you get, then it ends up having to be corrected at cost.

We recently supplied and fitted an electric power steering system to Tony Lydens cross over bay, seriously impressed with the difference.

The F1'S starting to look like a truck again.

Ron's Beetle Door re-skinned, B post lower sections repaired body re-assembled to check alignment and fit.

Kev's Ghia is now water tight, runs & drives.

Pauls Bay moved on a lot flattened off Re-primed guide coat applied, 2nd flatting of and painted!!

Back in February 2017 we started a project with Damien McGloclin we done a few repairs to the body of his beetle then we chopped the roof by 4" and it went away to be painted & finished, Damien returned the car back earlier this year to fit the motor and do a few other minor jobs, Damien has now finished the car and we can show the finished car, turned out rather well.

complete new front on Ron's 68 beetle, Doors next.

Pauls Bay in primer at last (worst bay body ever)) Westy roof prepped, primed and painted.

Paul's Bay after some repairs and removal of about a gallon of white dulux gloss !! now sporting westfalia roof,

This beautiful beetle was with us with a running issue, all sorted now and ready to go back.

Heater Channels done on Ron's 68 beetle and front panels removed ready for new front end, going to be a lot of new in this old girl.

Started to get some work Done on Johns Caddy, this project came to us after it had been started for John by other parties, unfortunately most of the works will have to be re-done due to the poor quality of the work, Going to be a nice when done though as John has interesting plans for this little truck including 4x4.

Steve Birch van was with us for some work on the brakes for the MOT and Four new CV Boots.

Paul's Bay nearing Ready for primer sides filled and refaced Roof needs a little more work, next stage flat of the reface. This was originally a Viking the roof has historically had a cut panel fitted that has required some remedial works, we will now be putting a westfalia Roof on it before we go any further with Body Prep works.

Lambretta Painted Nuovo White and Rosso Red.

Unfortunately one of my good customers & friend has decided to sell his Early bay, this is a beautiful van and has been looked after exceptionally well and serviced every year, recent top end rebuild, lowered on Transporterhaus spindles with coil overs up front and usual drop on the splines on the rear. picture say it all if you are genuinely interested PM and i will pass on contact details.

Oildroppers have done a great service on my split. I needed someone that knows aircooled VWs to check it over and Oildroppers was perfect.

A good honest garage and a great cup of tea ;) Highly recommended.

Oil Droppers have done fantastic work on my Bay, starting with a few small MOT jobs, through to fitting dropped spindles, coilovers, brake overhaul and a full service. The bus looks amazing on those spindles! Stuart's attention to detail and communication is truly refreshing. I would not hesitate to recommend them, they really do stand out from the other specialists I've used.

Can't fault Oil Droppers, great restoration on my early bay. Stuart is the go to guy for all your VW needs, wouldn't use anyone else! Quality work by an guy who cares about your vehicle, always a reasonable price and a really nice guy to deal with.

Can't believe there's still mechanics around who care more about the cars they're working on than just profit! Car was in for a rear main seal which ended up being a new engine, but he stuck with his price, found me and engine and got it running in a week, you can't argue with that.

100% would use Stuart again for any work on the bug, best VW specialist around by a mile, the mans a mechanical wizard!
