Carvana Delivery
มุมมอง 191หลายเดือนก่อน
Hurricane Helene flooded our daily driver vehicles, so it was time to replace them. We once again went with Carvana. The new to us 2013 Ford Mustang is the same year as my wife's previous Mustang which we will miss dearly. This new one isn't as nice as the previous one, however its a pretty snazzy whip. Our experience with Carvana went well the first time, so we decided to use them again for th...

Hurricane Helene really screwed us up here on the Gulf coast of Florida. Probably will resume video uploads when I can in the future. Will have some fixes coming up for Punchy to share unfortunately. Thanks for watching. Please consider subscribing to help out my channel. -Matt

very nice !!!
Stay strong Brother.. 💪🙏👌
I’m curious if a lift for punchy would keep it out of the water. Not that I want another hurricane to hit your neighborhood. I know everything takes money. I just got a new engine for my car and the trans I thought came with the car was a lie and the trans fried on my trip home 😢
@iddybiddyladybugleeza909 I'll be purchasing one at some point i think. Good call
I just found your upholstery episode and channel last week and subscribed . You have a gift that inspires . I lost my dad a few years ago , he was from the Philippines and a big vintage VW gear head . So I ordered my upholstery from Edwin’s as I’m building my 63 ragtop as a tribute to my dad . He would do what he could to support his home country. We are praying for you and your family 🙏🏽
@@MRPOSTMAN757 I appreciate that. Sounds like you have a good plan
Adulting sucks sometimes...Wow, the sea turtle looks amazing Matt ❤
@dedelin4356 thanks! Almost done with it
Missed you Matt at Bug Jam this year , WE went on Sunday was hoping to run into you, keep looking up to GOD, he is the way maker. GOD BLESS AND HAPPY THANKSGIVING ❤
@youme5547 i went on Saturday. Where do you live?
@punchysgarage Dunedin/Palm Harbor Boarder, Saw a friend of yours lives in Dunedin he has a 67 towing a little trailer, told him.we are praying for ya. Keep looking up Brother 🙏💙
@punchysgarage WE always go to The Causeway on Bug Night, they have some nice bugs ,vans people are very nice.
What brand of paint markers/ type of markers?
@@madmattsubieman9807 sharpie water or oil based extra wide tip paint pens.
Did it eventually get sealed with Clear?
@@AmazingSpanoMan it did. Just didn't include that final step in the video
nice
@@yoshiwiseful thank you
Dude that turned out amazing!!
@@VWJawbreaker thanks.
Wow that’s awesome
@superochosvwcorner4782 thanks! And for watching too
You actually have a nice flat edge on that knife to use to trace the perimeter as it shapes the vinyl to the shape of the edge, prior to kicking the blade out enough to make nice clean cuts. No hard card needed until after its all cut.
You are a freaking magician that is Awesome job, Looks like it should be in a museum. God Bless 🏝
Check this article out. I pray it helps you all❤
Brother check out the article I just sent pray it helps❤
Looks good.
I appreciate that
Looks good my Brother, KEEP LOOKING UP. GOD WILL PROVIDE. GO TO BUG JAM THIS WEEKEND, HAVE A BLESSED TIME ❤
What about defrost or heat for the rear?
Hard to follow anything you do with your camera on SPEED😮
@jerrykeen5817 yup I know. Next time I'll keep my head completely still for everyone
Just a thought, a nice gray stripe like the other car with a blue stripe down the hood, would be cool. Not sure if your heading to bug jam next weekend but might be a good time to get away and take your mind off things. God Bless
Saw your VW in the cover of a magazine today and grabbed it! Well done! Haven't had a chance to sit down and read the article yet, but looking forward to it 🤙🏻
Love the color looks nice, But know with your attention to detail it will look Beautiful, MUCH Happiness and GOD'S protection always❤
I'm guessing those are not stock mufflers.
Agreed
Pretty much but the whole stance thing can be kind of lame
Punchy will survive
You can dry out that distributor,and any the bare metal parts wd40 and some steel wool
Having the engine not detailed could be a good thing, you could tell if there were previous leaks, and such 😊
Totally rad, I'm going to attempt this on my bus but in almost opposite colors. Fingers crossed
@wesmc5917 have fun with it. Just dont take it too seriously. That's my advice. Good luck 👍
Love that blue!
Yea it's pretty nice. Like a purple/blue
Thank God we have an amazing support system in our neighborhood! Heartbreaking to watch the video!
Man I feel horrible that you’re having to deal with this and on top of it all the VW’s are our safe haven of happiness (and stress at times) and now that’s adding to it all. Wish I was closer and able to help. Definitely reach out to the community, I’m sure there’s people who would lend a hand. Keep your head up man, things could be so much worse. You and your family are safe and alive, that’s what matters most.
Thanks Gary. It's been so exhausting. Mentally and physically. Something great will come of this I'm sure. What that is, who knows. Glad punchy was in a magazine before this happened at least. Appreciate you watching fellow youtubian.
@@punchysgarage I’ve been in your shoes before dealing with losing everything. I literally had the clothes on my back and lost everything. It sucks dude I’m not gonna lie. Thing is, we get past this phase and move on because we’re still alive. We adapt and move forward each day. You got this buddy.
@VWJawbreaker yessir. It shall pass and we shall move on. Handing my bug off to someone to fix for me while I handle my house stuff would be ideal.
@@punchysgarage if I had the space and time, it would already be here. Just know I’d do that for you if I was able to. I know that comment doesn’t actually help you out, but if I would then there’s someone who might help also.
@VWJawbreaker for sure. I appreciate that 🙏
So sorry for your loss and know how hard you and your wife have worked, But know nothing can take that away from you ans Thank God you have it all documented on your channel. GOD will give you the strength and wisdom to do it all over again and much better. Please brother put up some merchandise so we can help support you and your wife. Let someone you trust run it like a family member as we know your so busy. Hats, stickers, of punchy etc. We will support you guys always. God bless 🏝💙
@@youme5547 appreciate ya always watching and commenting.
@youme5547 I'm going to get some cool merch going first of year.
@punchysgarage do you have a P.O Box my wife and I will send you a donation as GOD knows we are supposed to help our Brorhers and sisters 🙏

GOD ONLY GIVES YOU WHAT YOU CAN HANDLE MY BROTHER, KEEP WORKING HARD AND KEEP YOUR EYES ON GOD. GOD WILL ALWAYS PROVIDE FOR YOU. GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR WIFE. 🙏💙
Man that sucks, sorry you’re having to deal with that. At least you’re ok.
@@VWJawbreaker thank you.
So Sorry to hear about your Home and Punchy, WE are thankful you guys are OK, we say you short video, anything we can do for you guys? Maybe film your rebuilding your home and we can like and follow your journey. Willing to lend a Hand if you need some help. Keep asking GOD for everything you need. GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR WIFE 🙏🏝💙
we will film some of it for our other channel my wife and I sometimes upload to. "florida Livin"
Tint on the outside..looks good how’s it holding up? 🤙🤙
Its just film. Not literal window tint. Outside will hold up for a long long time
@@punchysgarage nice work! where did you buy it? thanks!
@@Fantobacon You can find it on Amazon.
Hi I just asked about the tires … my bug is 1972 standard… empi dropped spindles and disc brakes… I run 165/80/15 and they RUB… with weight and on hard corners without weight…I had the standard dropped spindles with disc brakes ($188 Canadian)… switched to the zero offset dropped spindles.($300+ Canadian)..seemed better but still RUBBED…with the same tires… I know that the tires need to be changed .. my question is to what size?? I can still run the 165/80/15 in the rear… but need front ones that won’t rub , with or without weight and maintain minimum speedometer error…shot in the dark here
@@SEDMUND59 narrowed beam could help. Or smaller front tires
@SEDMUND59 id think those back tires are fine that size tho
Hi … i know this is not a new video, but shot in the dark here ok …what tires are you using on the bug ?? And rims ?? They seem to have a lot of positive offset…
@@SEDMUND59 i barely remember. They were stock steelies with a 50 and 60 series tires
Thank you for replying to my message so promptly…. Appreciate it…don’t want to do the narrow beam unless last resort.. will look into tire recommendations.. my bug is same colour as yours..
Them wheels i would of went with different wheel setup
@@melvinrawlings1457 ok
I would of did some different wheels
@melvinrawlings1457 black Porsche wheels are what it came with from previous owner and this new owner likes them
The red color is pantone 2035c if you ever want to touch it up
@@WillB-d1x awesome.
hope you guys are okay 🍀
Sorry brother your going through this, glad you guys are safe
@@US.Countrymen thank you
keep them coming mate! love the look it created
@JurgenBoes my Beetle and Home got totaled in Hurricane Helene. Soon as I can, more videos will come. Thanks alot for watching
Great fast video and funny cartoon voice . So I've watched many videos that everyone of their tires rubbed up front . Did you go to a smaller tire size 155 ? I'm looking to install the same spindle but want to find out what size tires people are using . Almost all have adjuster beams and drop spindles and have 145 . So did you change yours ? What to if you did . Thanks
@sparlin88 i can't remember that far back now haha. This car is long gone. I didn't need to change tires though. I remember that much. Thanks for watching
I’m so sorry, I’m SO sorry! I’m praying for you 🙏
🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Praying for you guys!! ❤❤❤
@@darlenebeck4762 thank you!
Praying 🙏 for you. ❤
my house flooded about the same amount y’all’s did in 2016. it was truly devastating. i’m so sorry this happened to yall and im sending you prayers🩷 i promise it gets easier once the demo is done
@@julie.or.whatever appreciate that 🙏
I am a Master electrician and licensed electrical contractor, with over 30 yrs experience. I am thinking of just getting in truck and heading out there to help out. But I have been listening to people out here shit on my home town for years. Chicago is a hell hole, crime and drugs are out of control, gangs rule, you get shot the minute you set foot outside…. I don’t know if I am a good enough person to act like the Right, Sean Hannity, Fox News, AM talk radio and the Trumpkins have not treated us like garbage, insulted us, called us unpatriotic socialist and radical leftists for the past 10 years.
