That's right viewers, we've truly gone insane - we've brought home probably our maddest project yet, a crazy cheap VW Bay Window T2. Join us as we look around it!
23:00 you might be missing more floor than you think. The twin-door transporters and sunroof were built with a double floor to stiffen the chassis. Looking up from the ground, you shouldn't be able to see frame rails between the B and C pillars. Also, the roof crossmember that originally lined up with the C pillar has been cut away, further weakening the structure. I'd consider welding something in place there.
Great find! Neptune Blue is one of my favorite colors. As long as you'll be welding, I highly recommend adding an access hatch in the rear deck. They were standard on '73 and up Type 2s in the US, which all had the bigger Type 4 engine. I sectioned in one from a Type 3 fastback into my '72 and it's fantastic.
I´m so envius as that is a fudging steel.... when it come to engine in it, you can put in a subaru boxer without much problem and that will make it move ;) hahaha
You have just bought yourselves a whole ton of pain and misery. I shall be watching with intent as you slowly lose your minds! 😂 Fair play though fellas. Enjoyed the vid. 👍
That is so incredibly kind, thank you so much. We’ll put it into panels!! We know the FYOG has went on, but it’s significant to us and it’s something we want to do. We’re skipping the 7 video and going straight to the finale but it’s gonna take a few weeks of work to finish - so it’s normal viewing for the next while 🤪 Again, thank you so so much!!

You can buy metal if the right profile for the floor along with most other metal.
Twin slider nice :)
That poor bus has been through the ringer. I hope you guys can rescue it. It's a bit of a basket case, isn't it?
Ringer is an interesting choice of words 😂 we’ll rescue it surely don’t you worry 😎

Another unfinished project?
Seems to have been! They started to strip and realised they were in over their heads with the bodywork. We’ve already made a start!
The language in this video is disgusting why do you feel the need to swear all the time🤔
Why do you feel the need to yap
Having spent a summer in rural Ulster, I'd say their language is demure if anything in comparison.
Clearly you’ve never been to Ireland 😂
