J-3 Specialty Metal Fabrication :

Here at J-3 we pride ourselves on the quality of our fabrication work and the skills required. I believe top level fabrication is truly an art.  I have invested a significant amount of capital to acquire the equipment necessary to be able to do all types of rust and accident repair and specialty metal  fabrication for VW's, Porsche 356, 912 and 911.   This includes both large capacity brakes and finger brakes, P-3 Pullmax, 42" metal lathe, Bridgeport Mill, Pexto Slip roll and stomp shear, Metal band saws, Lincoln Mig and TIG welders and carts of various hand tools.   All of our cars are stripped with Plastic media blasting and crushed glass to get to clean surfaces.  Interior panels are etch primed and then weld thru primer before welding.  All or our seam work is butt welded and ground smooth to make it look original.  It goes without saying that high quality fabrication is VERY time consuming and expensive, but if you want it done right the first time, need lead work done or just want your car correct to original specs, I'm sure we can help.  Restoration quality paint work is only as good as what's underneath.

About J-3:      

“After 4 years, I finally have the shop where I want it to be.  We recently added another 1,200sqft and created a separate space as dedicated body shop.  It's completely separate with curtains and proper dust collection.  This helps keep the main fabrication/mechanical shop as clean and organized at it should be.  We currently have over 5,000sqft of shop space divided into three separate shops consisting of general mechanical/metal fabrication, body shop and finally assembly and upholstery.”

“J-3 is US!!  Me/Rich Ewald..(Owner) and Trent Witherow.  Any business is only as good as it's people.  I take a great deal of pride in what we do and also in the guy's that work for me.  I oversee all work in the shop and do more than the guy's kid me about. “

I use only the best quality parts and materials including
Bugcity/Kaferstadt and West Coast Classic.
I service all air cooled volkswagens, including complete engine, transaxle, front-end & electrical service.

Even before you buy your VW, I can perform a pre-purchase inspection, so you don't buy the wrong one. No matter where you take your VW ultimately, I recommend bringing your car to me for its first service, so I can make sure it's safe and tuned to the proper specifications to protect your investment down the road. If you continue to service your VW with me, you can be assured I will service your car the same way I would if my own family was driving it.

If I can be of assistance in anyway or even just to chat about VW’s it would be great to hear from you. Call me at (931) 840-9533 to schedule an appointment.

Thanks  
Rich
