Volkswagens, particularly the Beetles are well cherished in the Philippines. They refer to this ubiquitous Beetle as the "Volks". It is part of the culture of the already aging original owners as well as the youngsters who inherited both the vehicle and the enthusiasm. It is heartening to see very young Filipinos driving well maintained VWs, older than most of them. They are the genuine enthusiasts who prefer this lovable cars over the contemporary cars available.

I am Wilfred T. Ruiz, a Volkswagen enthusiast. It is because of this enthusiasm that I created this homepage, to share with VW fans worldwide, information on VWs in this part of the world. I hope that you will find this page informative.

--- if you are about to restore your Volkswagen but have no time to supervise the restoration & need someone to oversee a correct 100% restoration on your behalf

(Note: Jun Jun has the access to specialty shops and reference materials for a 100% ground up restoration job. He can save you money by avoiding back jobs and buying another set of parts because incorrect parts were passed-of as correct parts by non-VW experts. Contact him for details and extent of job he will be hired to do.)
