I have no idea where Broward County is . But the chance that someone from there ( Florida ?) sees this post is low. Google is your friend , Search for classic VW repair , VW clubs , Classic vehicle repair or any car club web site might send you in the right direction. ---

Did you try the “Repair Shops” tab on the top of this screen? ---

Mr. Fleet , that Repair shop feature is so far out of date that it is worthless . There are plans to update it but that may not happen for sometime. ---

> [@Mustangman](#): > > Google is your friend with that task. +1 Just _Googling_ “VW Specialist” should be productive. Not all of them will be experts in VWs of the '70s, but a Google search should give the OP several from which to choose, based on both location and expertise. ---

I guess looking up stuff for yourself is too difficult for some people . But in this case which Broward county . The one in Florida or the one in California or some where else. ---

> [@GorehamJ](#): > > I only remember Broward County from the OJ Simpson ordeal. Is there a Broward County in Southern CA ? I thought Broward County was in the Miami area. The OJ ordeal(s) were in CA. and Las Vegas.
