14 Year Old Wins At Her First Car Show!
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 25 พ.ย. 2024
- A few weeks ago my 14 year old daughter bought her dream car for her first car when she gets her license. A 1971 VW Beetle barn find survivor that we found on marketplace for a steal at $2,000. If you have been following this project you know that we got it running after being parked for at least 23 years, and then we fixed the brakes and installed a new wiring harness. In this video she is going to try to get it ready for its first car by cleaning it up and doing some buffing and paint correction. Then we will see how many of our cars can actually make it to the car show.

These are the only videos that I will sit and watch for more than an hour. I love that you emphasize family values and work ethic. Raising those kids right.
Wow, thank you!
Truth….such great content.
Me too! If I see a video that is over 45 minutes, I always keep scrolling to the next. Hubby and I love watching y'all's..
Yes,I tend to avoid longer ones also. I did watch this one though.
It’s so true. No matter how long a sleeperdude video is I will sit here and watch the whole thing.
My favorite TH-cam family. Congratulations Wawa. You guys are all superfantastic. God Bless You All and Thank You for taking the time to upload these Superfantastic videos for us all.
Thanks so much
Why do they call her wawa? Country name ?
And congratulations wawa
@@DevinMichaels-bx2qk that's her ''professional '' name.
So jealous of their upbringing and Family life, my parents were not able to give me this unfortunately
Congratulations Wa Wa. Thanks Mike for being a great neighbor to these kids. It makes an big difference now and it will make a big difference later.
Your right he is amazing
What an awesome event and an awesome day. Congratulations to WAWA on winning a trophy at her first car show with her first car. She will remember this day forever. Most of all thanks dad for all the hard work he did for his kids and this showing. What a beautiful family.
I think so to thank you
Congratulations Wawa
Also so proud of Squeezie that she sold all her drawings. 👍 Ralphie must have had a blast riding in Mike's Vette, he was grinning ear to ear 😁Josh and Tosh, you have such a great family, and great neighbors and a great group at the church. Bless you all, can't wait to keep watching your videos and see what's to come.
So this is what a America should look like when a mom and dad raise their kids right! Congratulations Wawa on your trophy 🏆 👏
Mike is a hoot by the way. Glad yall had a great time at the show. I think Rocky wins the prize for best actor in a documentary, lol!
With her hard work and enthusiasm, Wawa definitely deserved that trophy!
Congratulations Wawa! You go get em girl! Can't wait to see the Beetle all spruced up💛
Thank you
Agree
Suckers lookin mint already just time to personalize 😊
It's nice to see everyone getting involved and working together for a good cause! Big Congratulations to Wa Wa for her first win with her VW, too! Like her, I love just about anything blue, and I had a 71 Super Beetle in the same color about 20 years ago except mine was a convertible! Whenever I dropped the top, it looked like a Baby Buggy! Happy that everyone had a good time!
Y'all are such a fun, wholesome family! Congratulations Wawa on your win!!
Thank you
Wow! That's a well deserved prize for everyone who worked on that challenge! Dad worked in the hot sun so tirelessly on that project that he began to get confused - even calling his children 'kids.' But those four-legged adults and four-legged kids where everywhere, and it's easy to hold out a lettuce leaf to the wrong mouth.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Yes, kids are baby goats. Not so many people know that fact. I never did enjoy being called a kid.
Clr works good , they must live way in the sticks cause clr has been around awhile. Lol 🤣😆
@@Sleeperdude Was there ever any doubt!!!!
Next stop.... Pebble beach....time the the big mucketys learned.......
THE POWER OF THE WA!!!!
The work ethic displayed by your entire family is extraordinary- especially the younguns! Y'all give an old man hope there is still hope for the USA.
yeah typical USA values and a warm fuzzy feeling seeing the family bond together.............................
This is how we live most places. Don't believe the hype America's still out there.
Wow! Congratulations to Wawa, her first car, car show and car show win!!!! Amazing experience she'll remember for a lifetime. Y'all did such a great job at the show, Rocky included! I'm glad the youth group got some much needed cash ❤ This was an incredible episode, always looking forward to the next one!
😊😊😊😊😊
Thank you
Her confidence with the slow turn of the hand on the trip there . Told me that she operates on a higher level then most . I was entertained. You all are cool people.
Congratulations Wawa! And a special thanks to the whole sleeperdude crew for always posting such amazing content, I really appreciate all you do, you all have me smiling and laughing every single video! All of you make TH-cam a better place and I appreciate everything you do to keep great videos coming out! Much respect and admiration! You are all awesome
From the bottom of my heart, you and the family have been nothing but inspiring. Before I sell my CNC machine, please let me know if I can make you a sign for the garage, or even a simple VW sign for your daughter. Look into getting shirts screen printed or sublimated instead of vinal. Cheers to you and the fam.
Congrats Wawa!! Awesome job to everyone!!
Thank you so much
The VW turned out very nice and congratulations to Wawa for a well deserved trophy but the ENTIRE family deserves recognition! Let us not forget Squeasy for her contributions and sharing her artworks with the public! Love you guys!
That was so awesome, you guys!!!!! I wish I didn't live over two thousand miles away from ya'll, but who knows, maybe next year!!!!! Congratulations to Wa-wa!!!! The bug looks amazing!!!! And Ralphie, the 'vette is killing it!!!! Your art work looked impeccable, Squeezy!!!!!
Thank you so much
Congratulations, WaWa ! Your discipline, hard work and tenacity has finally paid off ! It's so special that everyone ( or y'all !) pitches in to help . Squeezy deserves
a mention for looking after and loving those irresistible kittens !
Thank you
Nice donut Ralphy! You instantly brought me back to my 84 mustang build in 2010 when I let my son rip it all over the lot. Then a year later we did a 6” lift on a 2002 Tahoe loaded with leather and third row but with huge tires. Again, he broke that in with a 2 minute donut show. I love these vids guys. Cheers from NY.
Way to go, WaWa!! Ralphie, next year is YOUR year!! Now, I've been thinking.... I think a perfect first vehicle for Squeezie would be an old VW bus (camperized, off course), with a roof rack for surfboards and she can drive all over the States and beyond to all the sandy beaches where she can stay barefoot, do her artwork and hit the waves!!
Yeah that sounds about right for her
Right on ! Great vehicle for her if she chooses to do artwork on the road, perhaps set up a mobile art studio ! 👍😘💕💕🎶🎶
Looks like fun was had by all! Congratulations for your oldest winning her first award! Maybe she can get another for her piano.
Congratulations Wawa!
Actually, Congratulations to the whole Sleeperdude family. Ya'll rock! Love seeing everyone pitch in to get those cars ready for the show. Mike the neighbor is awesome for helping out too. (Wish I had neighbors like that!)
Thanks again for another awesome video.
Thanks so much!!
So happy for her! It was awesome seeing that VW Beetle come back to life!
Wawa's betetle is cute -but all your hard work has turned this from a "Princess Car" to a "Queen Car" - great job everyone - so nice to see a family that actually works together to help each other - may you be blessed always - God has it all under control
I absolutely love how the entire family pitches in and helps. Love all of the cars. Wawa you are a rock star, congratulations.
Congrats Wawa!!! The work y'all put into everything you do is amazing. Glad the baby lions found forever homes. Can't wait to get my merch directly from you.
Thank you so much!! Yes soon!!!
So awesome. Congratulations to Wawa on her first trophy. Great to see all the hard work the family put into all the cars.
ABSOLUTELY AWESOME!! Waa Waa, and Josh , as Vw owner it makes me and I am sure I can speak for a lot of other Vw owners out here you guys did it right. The bug looks great! Also, congratulations on the trophy! My wife said and I quote " we need to meet them!" I couldn't agree more. Keep up the great work!
I had a VW 1973. I enjoy washing it. My car had a name (tweety - Yellow Canarie). They are the best, as long you keep a good service it can last a long time. CONGRATS!🎈
Thanks for sharing!
Love to watch the family working together. Congratulations for the win Wawa!
I hope the kids know how blessed they are, for their parents and the life they get to live.
Thank you
Hi Sleeperdude Family,
The event was awesome and I’m very happy that Wawa won the People’s Choice trophy. I think Mike is a hoot! On a more serious note, please insulate the positive battery terminal from the seat springs if you haven’t already done so to prevent a fire in the back seat. 🤓
Sending much Aloha to your whole family all way from Hawaii, I have to say, you all are such a beautiful and wonderful family. I admire all the knowledge you pass down to your children. I am an avid car junkie and I love watching your content. Mahalo and congrats Wawa, love that beetle. Keep up the great work.
Congratulations to WaWa...first car show with her own car and she nailed it. All that hard work really paid off. Gotta get Ralphie's Vette painted... That would make an excellent video of the process start to finish... You guys are the best...thanks for the great videos :)
Yes for sure thank you
Congratulations Wawa, it is so awesome that you won your first time bringing your car to a show.
Congrats Wawa! My daughters and I had a great time and that day kicked off the best week of my life. Sure was great meeting y’all. Keep doin what your doin and I will keep watching.
Y’all could so be my neighbors lol Makes me as a Tennessean proud of you guys for the hard work and fun y’all have! Congrats to WaWa on the trophy! And I always gotta laugh at Squeezie and her expressions and those always bare feet….she was just like we was when younger! And that dang goat in the beetle….hilarious😂 You guys are the best! Take care neighbors!
I could watch your videos for hours and hours ! So much better than what’s on tv! So glad WaWa won her award , the beetle has come a long way since you bought her.
I love watching y'all collect and save old cars/trucks, then clean them up and get them running right again. I really love that y'all do it as a family.
Next shirt idea: you should do one with all of SleeperGals translations from the videos all over it.
Thank you good idea
This was the best video ever! Congratulations Wawa on winning her first trophy. Ralphie cracks me up with his driving. I laughed when I saw Rocky in the VW looking out the back window.😂 I wish we could have been there to meet you guys. Glad you had fun. ❤❤
I just can’t express the love I have for this whole crew I wish more people would value their family and friends like this God bless you all and congratulations Wawa don’t worry ralphi you will get yours and skweek keep on being your adorable self Good job mom and dad
Congratulations to Wawa on the trophy and special shoutout to Squeezy, after a little absence on the work front she killed it this episode. She really did a great job of deep cleaning the cars. Good for her that her drawings all sold at the car show. Looks like everyone enjoyed themselves, and Rocky looked like he was having a great time sitting in the back of Wawa’s VW
Rocky needs own channell maybe name GOT YER GOAT???
Congratulations to the whole family you all are inspiring. I just love how the kids just jump in and make a big project like washing them all up so easy and quick. So many kids in the car sleeper dude couldn't get into wash anyting all you could do was step back and admire the hard working family Crew. I could tell by the sound that he couldn't have been any Prouder at that moment and just had a priceless feeling about how well the kids took to the job at hand. I noticed Wawa I had a RC cola in hand for her trophy picture congratulations on the trophy. Thankfully the only breakdown was a small issue with the kids driving the truck around too much prior to you guys taking it to the gas station. I'm sure there are a lot of answered prayers that day please make it please make it. Lol great video of course you are all just amazing together and we are all happy to get to come along with you on this journey to support the youth group. Y'all are some clowns when you get together and really get to having a fun time. That Mike fella has got to be a great friend and neighbor to be honest I thought he was the adopted brother from another mother turned Uncle... Lol and then I hear he's one of the kids... LOL so glad he rolled with you guys thanks for your support for our favorite TH-camr family! This was a really fun watch and I couldn't be happier for you all. Keep up the great content and keep these fantastic videos coming you all really are rockstar material.
You and your family are living the best life! Love how you all work together and support each other. You’re awesome parents. Keep up the awesome work!
One word only... impeccable!! There's nothing else that can be said about this one. This one had to be a boatload of effort to put together, but the effort is greatly appreciated. Great job raising money for the youth group!! All y'alls wide ranging appeal is gaining traction in a big way. Hopefully, it will allow y'all the opportunity to find that good body man to get that frunk latch fixed on the VW.
For the love of everything good & pure, I can't get enough of this Hickor-Billy Channel. Congrats Wawa! We The Ppl have spoken✔️
🤣🤣🤣
Soo much fun to watch today. That has to be one of the best deals on a VDub in 2023!!! Y’all really put in the hard work on it to bring it back to life!!! Can’t wait to see the RV up and cruising down the road on Vacation. Thanks for a great Show!!!
Congrats WAWA!!!!!
We are SOOOO loving your channel!!
The postal delivery truck needs a patina sign, “ WE OVERDELIVER” 😂🤣
Please keep it up guys. You have renewed our faith in God, family, and country!
We’re writing you from North GA close to Tenn. Can’t wait to meet at a show some time!
♥️👍👍
Hey guys. My name is Tony Feltham and I live in Brisbane, Australia. I just stumbled across your channel. I just watched the episode where you left your job to start you tube. By keeping it real and being yourself I think you’ll do just fine. You keep making and I’ll keep watching. You now have another keen supporter. Family is everything. I envy you buddy.
I am surprised how calm Rocky was riding in that Volkswagen. That's great Wawa your first car show Trophy can't beat that. Looks like everyone had fun although that was a lot of work to get those cars ready.
Congratulations on the Trophy win, you guys deserve it, could not of gone to a nicer family.
Thank you so much!
Josh, it warms anybody's heart to see the pride she takes in her bug. If you're gonna repaint it, I'd seriously look at a candy blue. High gloss clear. The lines of a big will really come out.
You have a wonderful family, your children are very special.. Loved watching how you all work together to get it done. You’ve got a new fan.
I was so happy when I saw that you had a long video out, almost 2 hours! Watched from beginning to end. Congrats to Wawa for her trophy! Congrats to Rocky for being the funniest looking passenger ever in the backseat of a VW Bug😂
Yay! Thank you!
Really good to see your hard work paying off at the car show. Congrats, on the Beetle! Looking good with the buffing / waxing too! I want a beetle now. It seems you all had fun and got to see some nice rides too. Luved the Elvis tune, and some of your comments. The sharp wit & family fun are so much what its all about! I so enjoy your channel. Found the little lions a few homes, Rocky got to go & be there for the fans as well. Seemed like the weather was nice. Pretty cool rides at the show. Your neighbor Mike is a cool guy. See ya later, always looking forward to what you bring to your channel & all of us out here in TH-cam land. Thanks for your hard work!!!
Awesome video Josh and family! Wawa's V-dub looks amazing! She is one proud girl with that car and has good reason to be! Well deserved trophy and so happy for her. Fantastic turn out to the show and glad it raised money for the youth group. Rocky was a riot in the Beetle! Loved every minute!!
What an epic video! Your kids are so good, helping each other on their cars. What a great way to start WaWa's journey with a People's Choice award for that great looking Beetle. Ralphie's Vette sounds great. The milk truck, F100, Falcon and MG are great cars. You guys had a great turn out for the show! Squeezy even sold some art! That is awesome! Rocky looked natural sitting in the back of the Beetle! He even laid down! Special thanks to Mike for helping out, his Vette is great! You and Tosh raised some great kids. Seems not one is jealous of the other over a Vette vs. a Volkswagen Bug, a huge credit to you guys. Don't ever worry about the length of videos, make them long as you want!
Congratulations on winning people's choice Wawa! What an awesome car show. Also , I just want to say. I want a neighbor like Mike. My neighborhood would be so much fun. Congrats again y'all.
Yes everyone needs a neighbor like mIke
All that hard work paid off ! Congratulations to y’all ! Very well deserved. 🎉
Thank you so much!!
Way to go Wawa I can't wait to see what you guys have for us every week keep up the good work
Thank you
@@Sleeperdude Got to ask. Is Wawa her real name?
Love to see you and the family interact and put the work in. Can't wait to see you and Ralphie restore the corvette and give her a new paint job! If only you knew a good body work guy :) Last paint work I've seen was on the bike you fixed up, which was a while ago. Go for it, and while you're at it paint the falcon too! C'mon Josh, you know you want too! Right now the wifey's MG has all the shine.
Congratulations WaWa❣️❣️You go girl, you’re awesome. I never miss a video from y’all, you are top notch people, what an amazing family, every family should be such as yours, fantastic parents with beautiful and respectful and funny kiddos, it doesn’t get any better than y’all in my book. I can’t wait for you to post a new video. You are the BEST and love, hugs and prayers from Indiana♥️🥰♥️🙏🏼♥️❣️❣️
I'm just jealous that your entire family have nicer (or at least more fun!) rides than I do lol. Seriously - I love the way you two interact and include your kids in all of it! My kinda folks! And yes - excellent that your kids will be able to drive stick! I gave my older daughter my 1981 BMW 528i 5 speed in 1998, she was one of the only high school kids we knew that could drive a stick lol.
Nothing like a local car show! Y'all never disappoint with the content!
Grats Wawa! The first of many, I'm sure! When the new shop gets made, you guys will have to turn the current place into a Display Room!
If Ralphie wants to catch up, he'd better start taking good care of his Corvette!
Grats to Squeezy for selling art!
And happy for NO BREAKDOWNS!
What fun you all are to watch !! I was having a grumpy morning, scrolling TH-cam to find something political to get mad at . And instead I found you . God knew exactly what i needed and your fun , loving , wholesome , family was it ! Its impossible to be in a bad mood arourd you .I went from a scowl to a smile in the first minute and it didnt leave my face the entire video. Thank you, Thank you , THANK YOU !!!
WOO- HOO WaWa !!! Congratulations on your trophy !!!
It’s the first time I’ve commented on your post but I just wanted to say I love how you all have family support and love and encouragement.. best family I’ve ever watched and I would love to meet you all but distance is obviously a issue but keep doing your family thing because it’s so lovely to watch 👍👍 love you guys xx
Thank you so much!!
Awesome show, great people, lots of beautiful cars. Please let us know when the next show will be so that we all can plan on coming. Congrats to WaWa on her first car, and her first trophy. Great job by all.
Let's GO! Congrats WaWa on your first trophy! Impeccable!
Wawa's facial expressions when Tash was driving the Bug to the show? I literally guffawed watching her. PRICELESS!
That’s funny
Congratulations, WaWa!!!!! It brings me such joy to see a young lady with such great interest in cars! Dad and daughter time, is just as important as Dad and son time! It's clear to see that at 14, she still thinks her parents are great!!!
Love how all the vehicles have pretty wheels, even if the rest is not too great. Fun to watch the kids learning about cars and working in general.
Congrats to everyone involved...the baby blue Wolksvagen deserved the win...congrats to WaWa....and hope you made a ton of money from selling merch...God bless you and all you do with the youth! Ralphy could paint his hot rod orange for next year.
You brought back the doll hand! I missed it so much, it's great to see the car show and congratulations to Wawa!
that was a real nice video. you guys had to do a ton of work for that event to succeed. super cool idea to find the kittens a good home at the event. bringing rocky was halarious. maybe rocky needs a t shirt too. congrats to squeezy for selling out all her art. she is taking her own path and succeeding, in the words of her mom, “you go girlll “. mike is a big kid at heart, he couldn’t stop smiling no matter what car he drove. seems like a nice guy. you may want to set the governor a bit lower on your wife there buddy. she’s going to get speeding ticket running across those highways that fast. then what will she say….oh i know “ihadtagetdatderdun”. great job to the whole family. thanks for taking us along.
Your right!!!! Thank you
Just currently found your channel. My Dad is a retired mechanic. I remember him using a lot of these old school techniques. I followed him around when I was a kid when he worked on cars! I admire your enthusiasm and passion for these old jewels. And the fact that you are passing the same passion and enthusiasm on to your kids is AWESOME!
Hello family, so much fun at the car show, Mike is a crack up for sure, Ralphie sure enjoyed riding in Mike's Corvette . I sure enjoyed seeing Rocky with y'all at the car show. He was a good boy . Thanks for all the work that was done to make this video so enjoyable. ❤
Love your videos bro ! A family that works together, stays together 🫂🤘
Always! Thank you
Congratulations to wawa on that win.. unbelievable how nice that bug shined up 😄🤘🏼🇺🇲
Thank you
You couldn’t have found a better little car for Wawa! You really scored with that one!
Thank you
Its nice to see the whole family hanging out and having fun together, hopefully, like what happens usually, all the kids wont start just disappearing as they get older and aren't as close as everybody is now, that would be sad😢
I really like watching you working with your family, you boys really involved and it's good to see that your daughters are involved as well. Like all the animals too!
Thank you I’m glad you like it
You can also clean the pads with compressed air. Works great
Great tip!
Sooooooooo proud of Wa-wa!!!! And all the sleeperdude family. Can't wait to see what she does next!😊
I'm loving the VW project thanks again family ❤
Thank you for watching
I love the fact that you puddin and Mortske are all in talks with each other. 3 of my fav’s! I love it!!!
Hope your having fun! Many years ago ( 1972). My Brother had an 1968 VW.
He put duel port heads.
He had a two barrel carburetor.
Add a oil filter(extra oil).
Headers!
Bigger/larger overhead cam.
Had a Hurst Shifter.
And a VW bus clutch.
At the track, he run high 16's.
Not this one. But an earlier one. Had a gas heater. Cook you out of the BUG!
PS. He had a small block of wood. Rounded like a bowel on the bottom. This sat in the floor jack "SADDLE". With this he said he could pull out a VW motor in under 15 minutes!!
Very nice job. A family affair!!!
I must say you kids are blessed to have such great parents😊. Not every parents are like yours. My dad used to shout when i took a wrong screwdriver. But he was a fine but strict dad to. But how your parents involve you in it is awsome 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽😇
Give a heads up early enough next year and my 4 year old son and I will make the trip up from south Florida! My son LOVES cars and LOVES watching your show with me. We love rainy days just watching all your videos together! It’s our boys time! ❤❤❤
Congratulations. Love seeing you guys work together. Wa Wa will benefit in life from learning how to work on her own stuff. The goat riding in the car had me rolling.
We have taken my wifes 2012 New Beetle and my 68 convertible to Bugfest at Mid America Motoworks in Effingham here in Illinois. The more people who go, the more fun it is at any show. My 68, Fred, is definitely "vintage". Lol, too big of a pothole and hes in danger of fenders falling off. But hes a part of the family.
That’s awesome
I just don't understand how in Gods name this awesome family and this AWESOME channel don't have over a million subs. I tell all my friends about this channel and even share it on facebook. I hope to see the sleeper channel in the millions sub category soon. 🙏🙏🙏
My Family and I wish y'all the best and all the happy returns that come your way!! You are truly blessed ! such a great family!!GOD Speed
Thank you so much!
I love that Falcon, We had a Army Green one in the 70's and I remember Mom putting the Pedal to the metal when we was trying to catch up to my Uncle who drove Greyhound Buses down I-59 South here in Mississippi! Nice Car and Nice Family! Love it!!! "Merica"
That’s funny
Wa WA got her first trophy..... Just epic josh. I am so happy for her. Thank you for what u do. Please keep going
Congratulations Wawa!! The little bug cleaned up real nice!! If I'm not mistaken there are products that make the running boards look almost new along with any other rubber, plastics & vinyl. I really enjoyed this video!! Y'all seem to have so much fun working together as a family! Keep up the great work!
Hi guys. It was wonderful seeing the whole family pitching in to polishing up WaWa's beetle. Then the MG sounding great with its new carb. Now, what yoy need is an MG Frogeye Sprite to rebuild for Ralphie!!!
Thank you
Family life, absolutely to munch!! As a parent I can only be so proud of you all!! Great times!!!
This is the kind of video I love to watch!! Family togetherness!!!
