I am moving to Knoxville from Jacksonville, FL and I will be bringing my 1974 VW Beetle with me that I'm restoring. You can take a look at my restoration here:  https://home.comcast.net/~mcclint680/bug.html
    I've been trying to find classic VW specialists in Knoxville, but my searches have come up empty. Are there any parts places or mechanics in the Knoxville area I could take my car to get work done when I need it?
   I'm used to having Eastern Imports and Hilltop Motors in Jacksonville to meet all my VW parts and service needs. I really hope I can find something comparable in Knoxville.

thank you for any information you can provide. I've sent several emails to avwa.com and they don't even acknowledge me.

I was cruising around Tallahassee after classes ...

Could it be we are both Seminoles? :occasion5:

I just moved up here two months ago from Gainesville and I too was spoiled by eastern imports (i even had an account there :shock: )... when I left they told me they would ship me parts if I needed... so we always have that!

I stocked up on a few things before I left too!

Yep, I'm a Nole! Everyone keeps asking if I'll "join the orange army" now that I'm in Tennessee - whatever the hell that means. During football season, I'll be flying the colors Garnet&Gold on Saturdays and Black&Teal on Sundays.
  As for the Rocky Mountain Motorworks link... I know I need to do some clean up on my website. Once I get settled into my new house up here and start working on the Bug again, I'll update it.
