thank you .....haha, without his youth and energy I think I would of just taken a nap and drove home after seeing the pond, mud and it buried in there .
Dear Lennert v. W. 👍👌👏 Same here, definitely! I hope that they will rescue the other bugs, especially the convertible, and the split window bus too. Best regards, luck and health.
Same here Bro. I'm 75. I remember the day he found an aluminum Crosley 4 cyl eng. Lotta talking and deciding before he had to shell out $5.00. Bless him.
The banter back and forth between these two guys is great. I'm glad they didn't edit it out. Having done similar vehicle rescues, I can relate to the conversations.
When I was 6 years old, dad rolled a brand new ‘55 VW Beetle unto our driveway, tan, with the oval window and funny blinkers, that were disabled but still installed, and rag top sun roof. I remember fondly many day trips in that car, all the sounds, smells, of that wonderful ride and I wish you the best of luck in restoring this beauty! Please keep us posted on this project. What a find!
My first car ( living in rural Wales) was a 1956 Beetle. I passed my driving test in Cardigan in the 1972 in it. The oval rear window was cool, the floor was rusted through and we just used plywood to strengthen it. The starter motor tended to stick,so generally parked on a hill (not difficult in Wales) in case jumping was necessary. A simple car and would love to have it now.
Dang man , this is inspiring for America. I am use to this in my area of Tennessee. But I cannot tell you how happy it is to see some remaining necks in New York. I wish you could do some more videos on the old girl.
Greetings , thank you , we are pulling the white vert tomorrow . I do not know the price , I do not know the condition , I never looked inside it , or under it , or checked for an engine . Should be fun Ghia Junkie , fingers crossed haha !
The best part of youtube is to see videos like this, where joung people save and take care of those cars that were left to rust and rotten to the root.
If a guy does the majority of the work himself, the bill won't be that bad. But, if he needs to send the bug out for everything, yes it is going to cost some big bucks.
The footage of the Bug on the trailer when you drive through the junkyard is kinda touching. There is something special about these old cars, that only a select few people really seem to get. Great find and fantastic video!
Headlights intact. Taillights intact. Very nice. Being buried in scrub probably helped preserve a lot of parts that otherwise might have been picked off over the decades.
You two are noblemen of nature, to rescue this, a classic Vee-Dub out of a 54 year gravesite. Even if you decline going the distance, and restoring it port, starboard, bow to stern, and just get it up to a great driver, it'll be one mighty testament to your nobility!
Great save guys! These old classic VW's are getting harder to find in junkyards anymore, especially an oval window! Let's hope who takes ownership of it brings it back to the road!
The fact that you guys even got that Beetle outta that dump is incredible. I don’t understand how you can make any money restoring it, but I hope you do!!! Reward for the effort.
thank you Tommy, all I can say is it's a good thing Kevin was there haha. My friend Larry has the car and will restore it , he does some amazing stuff...you didn't even see the bad of this 55, it's BAD...A pillar pushed into dash and about zero rockers left, no pans ...
Hey Jason, great score for your "young" friend there, it would be a rare and interesting Resto. Great entertaining rescue, "rescuing every VW Bug ever landed in the U.S.A, one at a time", a noble quest...
Wow Great Find! 👍 That’s a big size junkyard and I can see in the background that there’s two other VW’S over there, the blue one and the white convertible. They need rescued also. 👀
please keep us posted with updates, I would love to see how the restoration of that beauty turns out, that Beetle is one of my favorite models..good luck!
Some kinda fun there. Looks like it might be a 1954. Eggs taillights, looks like semaphores, no bullet signals in the front fenders, euro bumpers-no overriders, no pea shooter notches in the rear apron. I'm putting my 55 back together right now and have gotten an education in Oval parts trying to get the right pieces. What a find and rescue. I'll be watching this one. Thanks for sharing.
That was in comparison with some of your extractions Jason it went pretty well. Good rescue all there is now is time and money to bring it back to life. 🙂👍
hey Will , yeah once the drums freed up it was all good ...obviously having Kevin on hand made it seem ez . Yes, lot's of $ but it should be a matching #'s car and possibly org engine so it is worthy ....to some... ..and was definitely saved from the Samba sawzall parts dismantlers !!!!
amazing video this time as always, love to see old cars brought back to life and sure miss the salvage yards still containing all that gold. Thanks for including us on these adventures
I lived on Kauai in 85'-86'. And went to several of the other islands....veewees were very popular...there were some really hip and cool bugs and vans...I fell in love with them...I also spent alot of time in Mexico and Argentina..veewees everywhere... rock on
Binge watching your video's ; at 6:25, Kevin says " We should be able to bang the hubs loose and roll it out" --Your response is Gold!
thank you .....haha, without his youth and energy I think I would of just taken a nap and drove home after seeing the pond, mud and it buried in there .
You have no idea how fast i clicked when i got this notification. An oval bug being saved from the scrapyard is worth a watch 👍👍
Dear Lennert v. W.

now i wait till he pulls a splitXD
Thanks man !
Agreed! And, how many vintage v.w.s are we losing to scrap yards, etc? :(
VW LO MEJOR INVENTADO CON 4 LLANTAS.
Great rescue! Poor 1303 's standing beside it, they also deserve a better future...
Watching this takes me way back to the days of junkyarding on Saturday's with my dad growing up. Used to see tons of Beetles as I walked around.
Nice 😁
Same here Bro. I'm 75. I remember the day he found an aluminum Crosley 4 cyl eng. Lotta talking and deciding before he had to shell out $5.00. Bless him.
I dated a girl who’s mom had a ‘47 beetle she brought back with her from Germany. She was still driving it in ‘75.
me too
A diamond in the rough.
👍. x10
The banter back and forth between these two guys is great. I'm glad they didn't edit it out. Having done similar vehicle rescues, I can relate to the conversations.
Thank you for saving her !!!
👍, we thank you for checking out the vid
Y'all this was an incredible watch. Honestly can't believe how resilient it is for having sat there since '69.
thank you Samuel

Darf ich fragen ob Sie Karmann Ghias besitzen und wo in Deutschland?
Viele Grüße, Glück und Gesundheit.
@@Chr.U.Cas1622 Der Karmann war mein erstes Auto. Für mich ist er eins der schönsten Serienautos und der schönste VW sowieso.

Warms my heart to see another one saved

Good restoration
Thank you for saving that oval! VW Forever!

What a beautiful Volkswagen Käfer

I love seeing history preserved...Well Done...Cheers
We thank you 62’
Love Love Love, Keep the great work
thank you Emanuel
Great job getting that out. You have gotten lots better at this. Going to need deep pockets to afford to fix that one up.
amazing what pulling drums can do :), thank you , yes , very $DEEP$

😁, thank you Louis
Super rare indeed. Sweet find and great video.
thank you Scott
Can you e plain the rarity of this car compared to other bettles? Did he say 7 4 car?
It is great that this car is saved. Your work will be rewarded.
We thank you VC
Headlights intact. Taillights intact. Very nice. Being buried in scrub probably helped preserve a lot of parts that otherwise might have been picked off over the decades.

my friend restoring this one after he finishes the current pile i dropped in his lap, a 59 ragtop . We thank you
Oh my goodness what a find!!!! Love it brother!
thanks man !
That Bug looks happy to get out of the junkyard!
Go ahead and get the convertible as well and I want the roll bars off the YJ Jeep :)
Great save guys! These old classic VW's are getting harder to find in junkyards anymore, especially an oval window!
Let's hope who takes ownership of it brings it back to the road!
Especially if it hits the road unmolested and in standard trim.That would be nice.
Hi9bv

Great video and great job getting the bug out of there.
Any 1968 or older vw is well worth the effort to rescue it.especially an oval window
You need to hire that guy. That car rolled right on your trailer. Incredible find
I sure do! thank you Zimm
Epic! Thanks for posting..............
we thank you LP
Can't wait to see a complete resto on this. Keep us posted for sure!
thank you Doug , will do
I don't think there is anything on it that can be reused.

Wow; that’s a rare occurrence! An oval in a scrapyard! You would’ve thought they would’ve all been picked up or scrapped by now.
I agree !

Hi Gary , great find by Kevin , he stuck with it ...it will be restored ...haha, thank you

Kevin found this one 😁👍, thank you Salvador
Brings back fond memories...I bought a '55 VW new with a sun roof in strato-silver (blue) color.
Hi Jack, wow, what a car ! Strato silver is one of my favorite colors. I have a 55 in strato silver but it's a hard top.
Brilliant Rescue ! Well done Boys !!!!
