    VX Mechanic...

    Saw this ad on CL advertising a specialized VX mechanic in the Denver area. Thought this might be useful for owners in the area for some qualified help.

    This guys name is Anthony and his small shop is near this golf course.

    He is the guy who rebuilt the VXs for RICHARD PAYNE...

    He's the real deal and he will be changing my timing belt this summer.

    He did the 3rd member swaps, wheel bearings, and brakes on my VX. Honest guy that knows what he is doing. I recommend Anthony!

    I didn't know this was Anthony from Richard's VX dealership. He had worked and prepped my VX before it was sold to me. Very knowledgeable with the VX and it's quirks. Wished he lived locally to me as I would have him work on mine when needed. Highly recommended as he had a few years of working on many VXs in his time.

    Ah, well, I'm glad you all spoke up. But now I'm bummed that I'm no longer in Colorado.

    Does anyone have his email or contact number? I'd like to ask him a question or two.

    Thanks for the contact info. I'll probably catch up with him soon. Good to have an experienced VX mechanic that you can trust still.

    Ron, if you get ahold of him, please see if he has an email address and is open to questions. I called but just got vm. I did not leave a message.

    Thanks - Bart

    Good to know if I ever take my VX road tripping to visit my relatives in Denver and Boulder.

    Or send me two and I'll get one to him.

    He's going to do my timing belt in a few weeks...
