Grumpy's Metal
Classic car restoration company in Huntington Beach, specialising in VW sunroof parts
Grumpy’s Metal, based in Huntington Beach, California, was founded by John Alba over 30 years ago. The company manufactures and restores parts for classic Volkswagen Beetles and Buses, with a focus on sunroof assemblies and conversion kits. It produces and rebuilds components in-house using machining, stamping and pressing methods. Grumpy’s Metal also provides rebuild and installation services, offering exact-fit replacements for original VW parts and video guides for restorations. While centred on vintage VW models, the company continues to support customers seeking reliable, accurate and high-quality restoration parts.
