Watching your videos has really helped me get my motivation back to finish my project. I was gung-ho at the beginning of covid, then just lost my mojo. Hopefully Shellie bug will be back on the road this weekend 🙏 😬
Man that’s great to hear! I do understand though, I’ve gone through the same ups and downs during this crap time as well. Hopefully you’ll find the strength to keep pushing on. I appreciate you being here, stay safe and enjoy the rest of the week.
I appreciate it buddy, I’m hoping I can execute the idea I have in my head for this build. Thanks for always being here, hope you have a great rest of the week.
@@VWJawbreaker I agree! Its garbage! Junk it! I love getting under a VW with bolt cutters and start snippin' away! Brake lines, wires, speedo cable, ebrake cables... BYE!
Simon Fleming I like it but I’m wanting something more rat rod / mad max style of name. Just haven’t heard the right one yet. I’m sure we’ll all come up with something!
Tune in next week when Gary tackles part 2 of "The building of "Optimus" prime". Yeh I'm joining in on the name calling lol, I figured since you're transforming this puppy, Optimus would a good one.
JAY ALEX I actually started reading that in the optimus voice lol I like it, definitely writing that one down! Thanks as always for being here, hope you have a great rest of the week.
Haven’t touched the car on a week or so. Need to get back to work on it but life is so demanding right now. Hope you have a good 3 day weekend and find some time to relax as well.
Gary, I knew you owned pants and boots. Lol This looks like a great project. I like how you casually said "that's a black widow " and just. Kept on cutting. I was thinking widowmaker but there are probably a bunch of them. I'll keep thinking. Be safe, I saw the electrical tape on your finger. Enjoy my friend! Jim
Jim Lester I know when to use appropriate PPE 😜 I just hope the project turns out the way I envision it in my head is all. Either way, you’re along for the ride haha. Ah the electrical tape, the one time I didn’t have my gloves on that day.... go figure. I appreciate you my friend and hope you have a great rest of the week.
Hey man Kevin here from Australia. Looks like a mammoth job for one man where's your apprentice hiding. Anyhoo thankyou for sharing this is going to be a awesome series. Stay safe and stay well. 🌻 peace man ✌
Yeah, apprentice hasn’t been wanting to help lately.... there’s plenty there if he wants to pitch in. Definitely should be a good series if I can execute what’s in my head!
You can name it Quarantina ! That will be awesome looking when you get done. Now that I have lost my hearing in one ear I do recommend ear protection. 👍
Bonis67 haha, I like that one, I’ll put it on the list! Sorry about your hearing, I tried to modify the audio to prevent headphone listeners from that.
That’s honestly going to be a fun trip, watching you go along and do the modifications brother. I seen where that nut went. LOL trying to think of a name and I can’t come up with one that fast. A black widow? 😳 We don’t have those spiders here. LOL great video brother
Hey Gary! Keep things going great. Add oversize pipes for the exhaust. Last time I tried to remove the bonnet (hood) like you did I got a big headache. You should have sprayed the penetrating oil for about 3 days each day before breaking things loose. When you finally finish this project, you will have extra nuts and bolts leftover. Moe
Hey Moe! How did you survive the storm? I’ve already gone through about a can of PB Blast on this car before it even made it to the garage. Slowly soaking everything else now to help me in the long run. I’ve got some exhaust ideas going right now but that’s so far down the road I have plenty of time. Thanks for always being here and hope you have a great rest of the week.
@@VWJawbreaker Laura peed on us a little and blew some trees down in other yards. Not too much water at our house, but one of the intersections nearby was flooded for about 3 hours. Everything was shut down so that didn't matter anyway. Had nowhere to go. Keep up the great entertaining work. Maybe a GM 501 engine in the backseat. Some buggy.
jdmeaux glad to hear nothing major happened and that y’all are ok!!! A different engine did cross my mind for the 60..... twin turbo LS in the rear would get some attention but I’ll keep it air cooled.
Mike Briere ah thanks Mike! I’m figuring this out as I go! 😂 I’ve planned everything out but you know how well that goes sometimes lol Thanks for being here, hope you have a great rest of the week.
Hmmm.... how about Jawwrecker or Crusty Creeper! Jawhacker!? Volksbreaker!? 🤔 now I’ll be thinking of names for hours! Can’t wait 2 see the progress! I need 2 get caught up!
Mileage Unknown that it does, hoping to have her more finished looking and not to ratty. Originally I was going to leave her ratty but with the work I’m putting into it mine as well make it as nice as my limited budget will allow.
The Bad Bug I think this is the most creative comment yet! Thanks for taking the time to comment, I’ll put it on the list! Hope you have a great rest of the week.
VWJAWBREAKER thank you!! It keeps with the candy theme of jawbreaker too! Can’t wait to see how this car turns out, I’ll be following along! You have a good week as well.
Welcome to the madness! 😂 I try to be have because, well I don’t really know why but I do for the most part. There’s some little jokes on there here and there. Just be you, that’s all I ask from anyone!

Call it "Frank" short for Franken beetle. Its simple elegant, and fits in a personalized Florida Tag. Love the video.

People get shitty with me when I start cutting brake likes.... glad to see I'm not the only one taking that shortcut! 😀👍😀👍😀👍😀👍
Why fight it when it’ll get replaced anyway? Oh well!
@@VWJawbreaker I agree! Its garbage! Junk it! I love getting under a VW with bolt cutters and start snippin' away! Brake lines, wires, speedo cable, ebrake cables... BYE!
It’s all coming out eventually! I have a cool idea for the electrical on this later down the road.
i think you said it best in your video description.... Rusty
Simon Fleming I like it but I’m wanting something more rat rod / mad max style of name. Just haven’t heard the right one yet. I’m sure we’ll all come up with something!
Franken-Rod is my suggestion sir!
Dub World thank you for your input, I appreciate it! I’ll put it on the name list.
Hope you have a great rest of the week!
There are some great ideas in there!!
When your ready, I know a guy that makes vinyl decals.... 😜
Keep up the great work brother!!
VeeDub P8 it’s a crazy mess of ideas, time will tell if I can pull it off or not lol
Oh I’ll let you know if I need some decals brother!!
How about "Project Mixmatch". Sounds kinda cool.
That does sound pretty cool.
