I had six of them over the years. VW beetles have personalities of their own. They have so many lives, they don't die, they just "hibanate". They are so trustworthy and loyal to their owners. If I found a good one, I would probably give it a shot. They are one of the best cars ever made.

I was sitting there just waiting for the guy to come running out of his house yelling, "HEY! THAT'S NOT THE VW I WAS TALKING ABOUT! IT'S THE ONE IN THE BUILDING BEHIND THIS ONE WITH NO MOTOR OR TIRES!"

DANG! Ole pops is a savage! He still kept his cool and got the valve in that tire, all while his shoe and his thumb was on fire. Ya’ll need to do a Pop got the hotfoot T shirt. Id buy one!! Lol

A tip on using your air tank, you can connect it to a fully inflated tire on your tow rig or trailer and “borrow” some air to fill your tank. It’ll work as long as the donor tire has more psi than the tank.

My first car was a 1973 1300s UK registration number SEA 426L. So we named her seal as she was light blue and I was thrilled to find some photos of her online a couple of years ago, still running. ♥️ Great video guys, love your positive work ethic too. You make a great team!

My Dad had the 67' last year with the front and back separated bar bumpers. He bought off his boss for $200.oo. He drove it for about a year and a half, and someone stole it from in front of our house!

Since I was a young kid of 8- 13 I've loved HERBIE THE LOVE BUG , and therefore loved vw bugs never owned one but one day I hope so for my son when he gets older he can have the excitement and awe of a vw beetle

Just found your channel while on lockdown. We had a breakers yard in Ireland in the early sixties and broke lots of these for spares. We had a local guy who imported boat loads of mint Beetles from Germany and we supplied the parts to convert them from left to right hand drive. He also bought the registration plates and log books to put on them which was perfectly legal back then. We closed in 1966 when my dad passed suddenly and your dad reminds me much of him. The strong silent type of old fashioned mechanic. Stay safe .

My daughter would love that. She is 11 and has told me she wants a bug for her first vehicle. Nice work Lance

One of the reasons why they are not as popular as they used to be is the safety issues like airbags and a host of others safety items that cars nowadays have that the VW doesn't have. I hope she changes her mind by the time she is old enough and ready to get her first car. God bless her.

When you drove it home that was icing on the cake for me

You can tell someone loved her enough at one time to keep her out of the weather im sure with a little work someone will love her once again

I had a 1970 and believe me the hell I put it through was not something I'm proud of , but it was my first vehicle! The memories where priceless, I even found they float just to say , fix it and you may know what a mini tank you have ,and someone can create some memories with a fun machine they are .and again you guys are a blast & priceless, so God bless you and thank for reminding of a good part of my past.

I love a barn find - the idea of that forgotten beauty getting a new lease of life is just magical!

Ha ha - I had two 1969 white Beetles in the 1970's. The paint on both was horrible - VW used a "new" formulation that was supposed to prevent corrosion, but it caused premature corrosion. This car actually looks to be in decent condition based on my memory of my two examples from 40+ years ago. Two big giveaways on the year are steering wheel (chrome horn ring), and taillights. The rotted off running boards stuffed inside is classic. The battery tray on one of mine rotted through while I was driving, and the battery dragged on the road, shorting out the posts on the body. My dad used his plumbing supplies in his truck and torch to fashion something to get me home. Great memories!

I'm so happy to see it rolling on down the road definitely brought a smile to my face ,the best reward!

Great job, guys. interesting video. I wasn't as daring when I got my 1972 Super Beetle barn find, especially not with 4 flat tires. So I didn't try to start her up. We dug the car out of 10 inches of mud, shoe-horned it past an 8-foot drop-off, somehow got it across a tree stump, and then trailered it home. The rear window was missing, and I watched acorns and leaves flying out of the car during the entire 25-mile trip.

To open that garage door ... all you needed to do was pull the door back to almost closed and then push the bottom of the door out about a foot and a half ... and then open it. Those barn door hangers have a lot of swing on them.

Pretty sure you can fit all of that in the bucket and bed of truck. Over all you did real good there

This 1968 Volkswagen Beetle is a true time capsule. One item of interest is, has integrated gas gauge in speedo and also a separate gas gauge to right of cluster. Gas gauge to right of speedo was on US VW Beetles from 1962 to 1967. Prior years had a lever ahead of shifter to turn when ran out of gas. Had a reserve of 1 gallon of fuel to hopefully get you to filling station. This must have been an early model 1968 VW Beetle. Have not seen this before. Looks to be a strong relic of the past. Enjoy the process of resurrecting & making this VW Beetle road worthy again ... Slainte' ! Cheers !

I had a '74 Superbeetle that was a lot of fun. It would always stall when rolling to a stop sign, so I had to leave the clutch in as long as possible, but when it snowed, the engine braking would start the wheels locking up, so I would pump the brakes with my left foot, gas with the right, and scrape the frost from inside of the windshield with a tape cassette case with my left hand, and shift with the right hand. Steering was a luxury. The good old days. I do like the big sunroof, though.

I bought a 1060 VW in ....oh 1975. Rebuilt the engine, new clutch, valves ( and would spend a cpla hours once a month to adjust valves...) had a lever on the floor to twist and get reserve gas.(about 35 miles) . I drove that car from Srasota Fl....for about 6 months...loved it. Had a rubber gasket aroune engine compartment so no water or steam came into the compartment, so NEVER stalled from running thru water. I had driven through 2 ft deep water. Also put a tuned muffler on it.... Then I went to Phx AZ, stayed in Sante Fe for about 4 months, drove around Phx as I went to college for 3 years, then drove back to Sarasota.... Then a pickup truck demolished the car and me . I put easy 100,000 miles on it, only changed oil every 5000 miles or so, adjusted valves monthly, tuned every 2 or 3 months, replaced brakes ..oh about 40-45,000 miles, put a killer stereo in ...(no a/c yet even tho I lived in Phx (HOT) and Fl (hot) never missed the A/C . The heater worked great..I spent a winter in the mountains around Sante Fe and damn it got cold. 35 HP ..Top speed about 64 mph. Once, I got right on a semi's ass...I mean 10 ft back. Got to (buried the speedo) I guess 72-73 mph ....lol My girlfriends brother called it the tin can . It had that oil bath air cleaner, little tiny tail lights...I spent a LOT of time riding around the desert outside of Phx... She never let me down....but...man no power!!!!lol You have a 40 HP there. Mine was 35 HP

I just LOVE the sound of a true old Beetle motor!!! Makes my heart sing with joy!

When I was trying to learn to speak Persian Farsi when I was going through the Q-course to become a Green Beret for the Army, People gave me the hardest time because I said, "Is that any count"....

Yup it's the second time watching the vw being brought back to life but it's not the first time I've reviewed your videos there's is a lot to learn from your passion to bring back these vehicles to working order then the problem comes when you might have to let go( down the road) and that's my problem , because you start with the idea of if did this or do that to enhance the old with the new . So thank you for you sharing with us your videos . To stand back and to say job well done now it's time to put it to test (cruising down the road with a friend) the spark to dream of one more !

I really enjoyed this video. I have a 72 Super Beetle that my grandfather gave me before he died. I had to go all the way from MO to NY to get it. Unfortunately being from NY, It's pretty rusty and soon after I got it back in 2007, the fuel line rusted under the car and it's not run since. It's sitting in the back yard with a tarp on it since the windows leak. I hope to some day get it running again but it may be more work than it's worth. I've never seen that trick with sealing that tire up. That was pretty neat. Keep up the great work.

You don't want the fan housing stuffed full of rat debris either.
