Default Air cooled VW mechanics in SATX

I have a 69 VW bug that is having brake issues. I've messed with it and put a new master cylinder, wheel cylinders, lines, and shoes. I'm tired of working on it and I'm looking for someone or a shop in San Antonio that will work on this thing for me. Is there anyone that you recommend?

The car has all new parts in the hydraulic portion of the brake system. It will not bleed properly. It felt like the MC was not building pressure so I exchanged it for another new one. Bench bled it,installed it and the same thing again. I'm done working on it and reAdy to pay a shop to fix it.

I'll have to check that shop out at huebner and Babcock. Thanks

Buggy Wharehouse in San Antonio, Tx. Best place hands down. They used to drag race a 70's beetle in white with devil VW logo. The driver used to talk about how he loved eating up fbody cars since he ran 11's n/a and would spray a 50 shot if anyone came close to his bumper. It was FAST!
