Great coverage! Thank you for adding music and leaving out any commentary.

If we found that in the UK in that condition we would think we had a mint project 🤣

😎 I see a lot of expensive toys.

Is sema open to the public?

Couldn’t make out the name of the tool used to straighten out the tabs. What is it called and a place to purchase them?

Great vid and tips on the tabs to help prevent breakage!

As usual great tutorial

How do you turn the steering rods of a lowered T1 bus through the bottom of the wheel side instead of through the top side so that they no longer touch the chassis when compressing? It is a mystery to me how this can be solved in the best and safest way. I hope you could solve this mystery for me

How about one with your favorite upgrades to bugs and buses

Can you do a video, on how to degree a cam? Either stock, or aftermarket cam. Sorry, If I have mention this already.

Nice job and information. I always end up with a few band aids, when I do that job.😕

Couldn’t agree more. Great detail, says like it is and if you ask George a question he responds. It’s probably one of my favourite TH-cam channels 👍🏼

Love the vids george keep them coming

Can a ground cable mess you around? Does the thickness of the cable be a spesific thicknesss

Do they make a kit for a single port 1600

Great video. I have a Jeffries Kyote buggy and the back deck is not cut for the scoop. I am concerned about the clearance when the throttle is wide-open because I have limited distance from the fan shroud to the rear deck of the body. Do you know what that distance might be? If not the GB linkage, I am going to look at the Vintage Speed linkage. Thanks

That skid plate looks beefy. Is it 1/4”, or 3/16”?

Nice job, very clean set up? I’m pretty new to air cools, just got a 64. Is this set up good for a stock 1600?

🎉

Great vid! Very informative for this old buck learning new stuff!

Use gasoline to clean the grease build up.

i love your content and i want to say thank you. i ended up running a limiting strap on the shock mounts for cornering and jacking. this is help out a lot so the boots don’t over flex and leak. also helped that abrupt roll in a corner.

Great stuff George, another add I do is add a little black sikaflex under the clamp surfaces as Ive had them leak from the ends too. Some of these clamps are rubbish and don't put enough even clamping pressure around the tube.

I like the Febi Bilstein brand that say Volkswagen. I know that in Brazil they are making an improved version with better composites and thicker section. Thank you for the great tips. I also do the seam at 1 on the left side and 11 on the right side. I’ve also done them with the car on its weight on ramps. That gives me access underneath while keeping the axles fairly straight.

Nice, never really thought about the bolt under the spring plate.

What’s the part number for the black fuel filter ?

Dude this is an amazing video.

Driving fast does not mean reliable.. a 36 40 and 1500hp are reliable motors, boosting air-cooled motors always spell trouble, very costly and seem to be a bit dangerous if your not a mechanic.

That ghia and buggy are sick!!!

👍👍

As someone still into the scene that frequently saw the original in Southend/Leigh this was an awesome tribute to see in person at #onecrazyweekend

Red on red! Holy cow!! Top work from everybody!!

Thanks for the shout out and kind words, great job on the finished product.

this was such a blast .. a real throwback to when we were just teenagers building cars on a budget and regular … loved it

Call me crazy, but I kind of liked the old color and red engine bay combination. I know this is an 80’s style build, but I was never a fan of painted trim. I spray painted the trim on my first Beetle black because I didn’t have any money. That was about 1983.

This is awesome work but I can’t understand why this is a transitory paint job. Why not do it right only once. I understand this is the owner’s decision but it seems like a waste of effort, time and resources.

Ghia battery's in engine compartment big No here.... relocated and clean....❤

Hi I took some photos of your Bus Thursday night at Orleans show, it is going in my Calendar 2025. For description what year is it? people get pissy if I get this wrong!!

Awesome video guys. Did you do anything to the distributor to stop the full advance? I thought with a supercharger you couldn’t have it advancing to much?

Great video I appreciate your attention to detail!

G'day, Another awesome video. I love your work man. Q. The battery tray. Would that fit in a 63 beetle. If so where did you purchase it. So thanks for sharing the knowledge man ✌️ Peace from Melbourne Australia.

I want to thank you for putting these videos out. I have learned so much from watching them. I really like how you explain what you're doing and why. Thanks again, and keep putting them out. Big fan!

Top notch work!

Love it GT! I know you’re glad it’s over, but you guys killed it. Jobs well done! I also appreciate Bill wearing his T3A shirt for the tear down.🙌🏼

I love this channel! It’s a master class on attention to detail. This is how everyone should be doing it. This channel should be required watching for any mechanic, builder, electrician, or anyone working with their hands…especially if working on other people’s stuff. My OCD approves!

The wheel studs are a great addition. Who sells them!?

I like the empi studs on the drums. They make life so much easier when changing tires.

Just heard about this channel from Off Road Buggy.... 😃👍

Think the steering box clamp position is different from Beetle to Ghia. Angle to cabin is different.

Great idea using an old frame head to hold the beam while working on it👍
