Man, I love your videos. That '59 is incredible in black.
thank you Tim, I appreciate it
That dash on the 59 looks like right out of the box! The 63 is also looking good. You're luck is changing!
yes! finally a dash :)))
People have gravitated toward you, and you're doing Great. You have a door and the window and the roof! A gang of good friends. Keep the shows coming.
Great car my favorite color combo.
the 59 looks and sounds great, love it!
thank you AG
My heart for VWs goes back to 1970 I bought my first. It was a 1959. Thanks from.
As soon as you fired it up I said, Its just the belt! That thing runs great! Beautiful bug. 59 is my favorite year, I have a nice 62 daily driver currently, which I will keep because I am going through everything to make it a super reliable driver. I am running the original 40hp engine which pushes me up the grapevine in California just fine!
I wonder how many people understand what the grapevine is?
@@IEchuckie just California's and truckers!
The 59 is pretty nice! Nice and smooth! Man. Taylor is going to be lucky if he doesn't end up having to swap that engine in on the trip back home! lol.
Wow sounded nice! But I hear a knock sound too. Fired right up though. Yep the belt!!! Quick fix! 😁
Love the garage…I need one like that.
Original paint that long! I was wondering why so much paint was removed too.
The original paint doesn’t look that bad……
The dash is amazing!!! Wow!!!
I turned 16 at the end of 1972 and bought my first car.....a 59 VW. Drove it for a few years and bought something newer. Had a lot of good times in the old bug and wish I still had it. Ahhh the memories of our youth.
awesome memories for sure , thank you for sharing Greg
Wow! As original as it gets! Brings back sooo many memories from my childhood! ❤
Love the video. I really like the rag top I love the color combination . I bet it’s going to look really great when you get it finished. Have a great weekend.
Love your videos. That '59 interior and dash are outstanding. The 36 horse looks fantastic, just needs your magic to make her perfect. Keep up the good work!
22:24 that dash does look good an it all looks good inside
Hey J, I totally love watching you and your friends working on these old VWs. I don’t know much about them so I’m enjoying learning more about VW. Nice collection too! Thank you!
thank you, great to hear. They are just a fun simple car that many us older folks have fond memories of :)
Thanks for having me out Jay! Always a good time ✌
Haha! This explains why I saw the bus drive by my house like 7 times in one day! Forgot your keys!! 😂
😆😂🤣
Great video mate
thank you MR G
Yay, I'm learning! I looked at the belt and said "Geez that looks sloppy loose" And I was right! Cool.
From Mr. 67 to Mr. 59! Looks like another gem, Jason! Whatever the year, buddy, i'm watching! At least Larry won't have to use another spool on this one! Good stuff, keep em coming!
Excellent video Jason :) yes black 1959 VOLKSWAGEN BETTLE car free air conditioning and plus 2 tone Lol! Also painting up or leave it Lol and super nice sound engine to after belt fix up too! That wild sell motor for VOLKSWAGEN those motor thought at least be $500.00 to $1.000 for good ones and under $500.00 to for need be rebuilt too ! Just saying because prices gone up on motors to rebuilt even on special shops do tons of them for costumers !
Hi Jason.....The dash on the 59 is amazing brand new. Love your vidio's. Keep'em coming... Be safe@
Hi Jim , thank you , it is a joy to sit in that car . Thank you , much appreciated, you as well Jim
I have grown love Taylor's channel.
👍
nice job.
Another great video. Enjoyed watching. Nice ‘59 👍🏼
59 is awesome . Good to see Taylor popping in 👍
thank you Coco....yeah he's ahhlrright :)
Hey Buddy, thanks for another great video. Always have had a yearning for a VW, but I have never had one. May you and your family continue to be abundantly blessed Jason! John here, from the back-roads of Northeastern Tennessee.
Man, I know little to nothing about VW’s, ( I owned a 1965 in 1976, my first car) but for a whole engine for $300, I would have come over and tightened that fan belt! LOL! I paid $175 for that beetle, I was a sophomore in high school and HOLY SMOKES DID WE HAVE FUN! It went EVERYWHERE in winter and summer! LOL!
always Cool !!
thank you Dan, I appreciate it
thanks to Mustie1's log splitter video, I found this channel. glad I chose to come here and see what ya do!
Very cool , thank you for dropping in . There’s a bunch of Mustie1 collab vids on my home channel if you scroll down .
My step-dad had a 60 to 62 black with red seats like that one. I remember him and my mom smoking pall mall reds and killing me and my sister. No pop out windows. Should be standard equipment lol. The cig pack matched the interior.
That ‘59 is awesome and VW Black is a beautiful color. Looking forward to seeing painted
thank you Phil
That’s the first transversal mid ship powered bus I ever seen. Nice project.
Love it when you guys hang out together.
Hell yeah Rad Dude!! Keep up the Rad work homie!!!!
thank you Chris!
Keep the videos comin they are great
thank you Harry, i appreciate that
Those hydraulic tables are a great tool to have. Glad I bought one years ago.
Hey man,
The 59 looks awesome. That's my next bug a 59. At the moment I have a 63 bug and a 67 split window kombi.
Hey no Josh ?
So thanks for sharing ✌️Peace from Melbourne Australia.
I didn’t know there was another TH-cam channel with so much VW content besides Mustie1. I’m looking forward to watching more of your videos.
thank you Bill, there are quite a few Mustie1 collab vids on my main youtube page. M1 is a very good friend of mine.
Parabéns! Você tem tesouros em sua garagem.
Thank you
love the beetles mates
Excellent, can’t say more or better than that
thank you Al
That one looks nice!!
thank you Tom
Love that 59! I’m looking for a rag, same age as me.
thank you, I had one, it's Larry's now :). He made lot of progress on it, it's really coming together
Love Your Channel.
I as a young kid use to love The older VW Beetles until I drove one.
I scared myself so much driving it I ended up never driving one again LOL
A lot of my fear came from the lack of insulation in the body so the car vibrated excessively for my tastes & with the high revving engine & the shimmy & shaking along with the sensitivity of the breaks It felt like it was going much faster than it actually was.
I have since regained my love for the older VW's & Cannot stand the remakes of today, they have made a car the reminds you of the old classic but is far from it.
I like watching you & your buddies tinker & forage & fix these old babes & giving them new life.
Keep up doing what you are doing cause there are so few actual VW lovers out there now a days, especially here in Canada.
I am still looking for a '70 earlier beetle. I just retired, and the '70 was my first car. RED.
I think a friend has a free red 69 or 70 , I’ll ask
Beautiful interior and sweet engine
Arrancó rapidisimo
Creo que es la primera vez que arrancas un vocho rapidisimo
Esta excelente
Saludos desde México cdmx
love the channel and vids! thanks for sharing your knowledge.
Thank you PPV , I’m learning everyday
how many hours do l need to put in for the dune buggy engine?
I want to see more video //more V W beetles// go save some from the scrap yards //go go /doing great on welding and metal work .
Afternoon mate
Hi MR M
Watched this video yesterday but didn't have time to comment. My thoughts on the paint or lack of it are; the body shop did the repair and scorched the paint with the grinder OR the guy didn't want to 'feather' the edges of the paint so stripped the whole thing maybe neither of those but I cannot think of any other reason for them doing that. There is a 'new' device now that can scan the original paint colour and then you just plug that into the point shop computer and it tells it what the mix should be. Might be worth finding out if you can borrow/hire one. I am sure you will renew the other side before you paint it anyway. Take care Jason and good to see Taylor putting in some hours for you. 👍👍
That Ghia was Alive!!!😂
Nice!😎👍
thank you Dominic
Check the water pump.
Will it run?? Turn key, running. Could have been the shortest video ever.
brb beer time 😀
Imagine how good your '59 would look with a full beautiful paint job to match that driver's door. Hope Larry pushes for that and can the original rear fender be saved???
I know Larry can save the fender, i just saw the fenders on his 59 he spent a few days restoring . I can't believe they are the same fenders! I haven't decided on the paint ...yet
200 for the complete engine ? Wow, haven't seen one under 1000 here in Canada. I'm in need of one
You should put yourself on a tee shirt with your blower and engine bay, I'd buy it!❤
haha !
Don't call yourself a dumbass-When a man is busy and trying to multitask some details get overlooked. Now initially I was horrified for you when I heard that knock when you fired it up-However Its difficult to differentiate between a metallic knock vs a belt thumping when it's loose over the recording (Especially over the net) Terrible thought to fry a piston or suck a valve on a first start when you just sunk a truckload of cash into a new purchase..Congratulations! That 59 is a beauty
I need a beetle up here in Canada!!!! Can you UPS something to New Brunswick?
Hi Joe - J5150mxVw@yahoo.com
Will it run?....geezz
In 59 you could get a coffee maker as an option. Hardest option to find now.
that is crazy, i have seen the pics
Bug Luv!!
yes!
I had a 59 sedan once, best vw I ever owned. Would love to find one as cool as this one. I have 62 now trying find right carb for a dual port previous owner, don't buy installed. Bought chinese clone out of desperation, waste of time and money.
Nice! Buy a carb from Tim, the best money I've ever spent. I have bought two from him, the 1st in 2015 and it still looks and performs as new. Unbelievable quality restoration of org carburetors. Website - www.volkzbitz.com/
yup generator noise
what day do have tours in your shop , public ?what the price $ for the tour ?
Great video. Just curious, what part of the country are you in?
Thank you , this was NH
Hi I have ?why you have not restored any vw bug or bus yet.i would love see you do one.
Sounds like loose fan welds
running my 1970 beetle on I 94 at 80 MPH for 6 hours crack a head I have chrome chevy 14 inch wheels on the back //replaced the head /can they run 80 M.P.H. all day long ?
I think he want a clear base to paint it it look original the repair
Oops keys lol
I want whatever is in the center of the dash with the switches and warning Indicators
On this video you referred to the 67 as a oval a few times? Is there another feature for the term oval then the rear window?
hi, the 67 had an oval rear window graft done back in the 80's
My 1964 bug has a rebuilt engine but it leaked lots of oil what do you think is the problem
many
Yeah Jim it is a lot of oil. It makes big puddles
What size is on the wheels?...
Is dub werks still working out of your garage?
👍
thank you PC
Can't beat a 36horse (30din). Stronger than a 40..
love the 36'ers :))
Didn’t know Santa works for you
how else would i get all these toys :)
Can I buy parts from you? I'm told the 61 has one year only parts that this bug would need (signal stalk for instance).
