Hi Mike,
My name is Leith, I live in Chackbay. I just started working on VWs last year. I have two 1969 Karmann Ghias and a 73 Thing. If you are looking for nice 'local' people, there are a couple groups in New Orleans and Baton Rouge. Check out www.aircoolersla.org . There is a great forum with plenty of help. Everyone on that site is great for giving advice. I am not sure how well I can help personally, but I am a good trier. If you ever need anything, send me a mesaage and let me know.
