  • The last Hot VWs drag day of the 2024 season, and the last one at Irwindale, was a huge success! Thankfully my bug held up long enough to get me there so I could get a new part for her, and even fixed her on the fly at the hot vws swap meet! It was a super fun time ❤️ I can't wait for the next one! Fingers crossed they can find a new venue for next year... 🙏🤞
    If you loved this, then I KNOW you will get a kick out of me getting Rosy her reverse gear back! Check out the "simple" repair here! 👉 • MY VW WON'T GO IN REVE...

    So glad you are back. Girl I'm like you. I have been into bugs since the age of 19. I'm 74. Still doing it. 😂❤

    Once again a very good video. My wife had a very hard time wearing shorts again after she was burned. What a very brave and wonderful soul you have.

    I am glad that you had fun and got the speedo cable replaced. I have never been to Irwindale, since I am on the East coast. Back in the mid to late 90's I used to go to shows at Maple Grove Raceway in PA. If I remember correctly, I think it was called the VW Super Jam back then.

    Always liked the beetle, had a couple over the years but life and kids got rid of them.
    Found your video about the rear gear selector bush and thought id look back at your older videos.
    Really sorry to hear of your accident and losing Spencer.
    But great to see you getting on with life and begining to smile again.
    Ive definitely now subscribed and i know youve solved the issue with the speedo cable but ive had a few go on me in different cars over the years and that jumping ticking that your speedo does is always the cable.
    Simple fix and well done finding the one you need at your meet.
    I'll keep watching for all the VW fun and seeing the sunshine, too.
    Some stunning looking cars you have over there.
    Here in the UK anything of the age some of the cars you've shown would just be full of huge rust holes and being stripped for bits.

    Personally for future reference I would use dry graphite powder because it does not collect dust and dirt grime

      Yeah, it's a shame the raceway are dying out 😭

    OMG my Baja speedo cable went out on my way to Mojave madness 😅 I just pulled it out and continued on without a speedometer

    My speedometer used to make a crazy noise! Got a new one but something is still wrong because the needle doesn’t work 🤷🏻‍♀️
    Just got a new engine and of course the transmission went out 🤦🏻‍♀️
    By the time I’m done with it it will be ready for my daughter 😅

    • @dustbuggy
      @dustbuggy  3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Haha I know that feeling 😅 it might be the gears inside the speedo itself! On the way home the sound came back, put some wd 40 inside the speedo through the speedo cable hole and been driving it all week now and it hasn't come back! 👌

    did speedo cable snap ?

    • @dustbuggy
      @dustbuggy  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I don't think it actually snapped, couldn't tell because it's inside the sheathing, but it did feel like the cable was shredded somewhere at least partially when you move the sheathing around

    Awesome video coverage but hope you bring your drone for bird's eye view of VW Classic Show!

      Unfortunately I don't see that happening for the foreseeable future, they have laws pertaining to flying over cars and people and something like that would definitely garner the wrong kind of attention... 😒😭 Though that would be AWESOME! Also following a drag car as it races down the strip would be super sick 😁👌

    • @stargeyser1
      @stargeyser1 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @@dustbuggy Yeah..hope that they would allow that as long you comply with regulations. I agree 💯 percent that it will be great with drones following drag races down the track..
