over in oz ,when we want to stick glass / hair to aluminium we drill 1/8 holes in alu then make sure its grabbed . then we sand off inside alu glass .. it never lets go. im nit being smart. just sayin ,sir. 5 star n ty Jamie for great video/editing
You sir are unbelievable, so much gratitude for your gifts and your passion, your love truly shows in your work, i cant imagine how many people you inspire 🙏
That thing is looking Badass!!!!!! I love this bug, and those heart headlights really bring the "custom alive". When its paint time you should lay some heavy flake down. This bug is a whole new ballgame of customizing. I Love It!!!!!!
@thomasstevenson5367 so anyone that doesn't have the EXACT same ideas and likes as you is known as a free thinker unlike yourself. Do you know what that means in America? I bet you don't. 😂
Just a suggestion…when you do light up the hearts … led lights or a ribbon light around edges.. and brighter and larger led heartshaped main light with a smaller but even brighter Center lights for the high beams …. I don’t know if or how it can be done …. BUT if you put your heart into it ….lol. You can do ANYTHING.
Admittedly, I liked the bug-eye, but definitely the hearts take it to a new level, out of the bug feel and into an almost psychedelic vibe. I could almost see a dancing filament setting on the headlights, like the early 1970's 7-up can flicker bulb lamps. That bug is turning into a real mesmerizer.
"Dare to be different" Is the way I live my life!!! Especially when it comes to my cars!!! Needs red LED lights around the harts like halos!!! LOVING IT ❤❤❤
I rarely comment and love your work and that bug is so cool. Pls don't trust your dream about heart headlights. That looks ugh! X3 to eternity and back. lol
yeah, bug is cool, but heart headlights? I agree that the 'baja bug' look of the current headlights isn't a good fit, but this plan is just plain hookie/16 year old mod. With Ian skills, I would make headlights that popup. Or hang from the fenders.
He is punking us. I have been waiting for the finish of this build. But if it goes to a tattooed woman in all black. Maybe it is ok? Not a straight male.
Ian the vw is coming along can't wait for you to finish it. Follow your dreams and do your best at what you do. God bless keep smiling and have a blessed night
You're really a creative artist... I wasn't expecting the headlights but it puts a smile on my face! A build that is as fun to construct as it is to drive!
Ian what huge shop you have now! I’ve watched you from the beginning and you have expanded big time. I’m a 1970 bug owner and get a get lock out of your customized VW builds. Wishing you all the success on your new shop and TH-cam channel. Thanks, Mike
I see the dream! Get better you two. I love that this style is carrying on. My grandfather was a traditional hot rod builder in cali and I always wanted to build something like this.
NEVER - have I seen heart headlights. Once again - just like the doors - you create a totally unique look. It’s a love it or hate it look !! That’s how you roll🤠👍🏽
This is so cool what you do. Inspirational art. When you start doing things for you instead of everyone else, amazing happens. I see that on a lot of your past work where you're just left to your own devices. Cool happens. Love and Light to you and yours. 🙏❤🌹
The new headlight design is brilliant. I love it! Just some quick feedback on the video -- the sound levels are going up and down more than usual. Not sure what went wrong.
Hey Deutschland hier, sehr geiler scheiß ❤❤ You did a great job on this one, love that americans take Our old VW stuff and turn it inkl something cool, and give it a New life.❤
When you were showing back of bug I got a flash of seeing a skull. The cutouts look like eye sockets maybe sweet and cute frontend and mean loud crazy backend
You definitely called it right when you said it would look like some funky sunglasses. I was trying to imagine what it would look like if it had some rose colored lenses. Thanks for such an awesome build.
I love everything you do. I'm not feeling the heart headlights though. I think perhaps a tear-drop shape might be better. HOWEVER - It's your car and you can do whatever you want with it, and I'm sure it will look fantastic at the end. 😀
Heart headlights are so funky bug! Great stuff! And as for the "christmas tree" tail lights. Don't have them pointing straight backwards, thats the boring route.
I was camping in the woods this weekend and had a dream. This crazy fabricator named Ian customized my baywindow and it looked like a ufo complete with little creatures.
Someone buy this guy a $19 Harbor Freight 360 degree rotating laser level. 😂😂😂 Do u have an Amazon wish list? Love the content and would love to support the channel
Awesome job…love your skills..way better than mine..I would have just turned the love hearts into a pair car sunglasses…guess that piano player got me thinking..anyhow..have a Winfield!!!
When I first saw those heart shape windows for headlights I thought that was cool but I also thought, the rounded corners of the heart you could put 2 small led headlights like in a bmw or dodge changer per heart making it a four headlight bug. I ain't seen anything like that! Keep up the dream baby, yeah!!!
wow , those headlight frames look so cool, i,m thinking japanese animi cartoons - powder puff girls - you gotta watch those tacos before bed ,its givin you dreams
Just want to say hi to you all and hope you had a blessed Thanksgiving. I just wish I had some of your talent working with metal. Keep up the good work and keep on smiling God bless and have a blessed night
I 💜💜💜this bug!!!! It's another example of the reasons I've been such a huge Roussel fan for so long. Maybe one day I'll be lucky enough to have a shot at owning it🤞P.S. I see an exaggerated '35 ford front bumper with the nose and fenders contoured to match, kinda like a big smile.
Yea!!! I just found you guys here! ( u won us over on that other show...) and being a old car guy, ❤ what I seen.. cant wait to get cought up with things now.. good luck to you both on your new adventure ! from a fan from Indiana
Always loved the narrow light baja bug since I was a kid. And I've also had dreams about projects that I will eventually build (my inline skate quadcycle coming soon was straight from a dream). I dig the heart-windows-as-headlight look. And overall this show format is so cool to me. As a fabricator and restorer myself I find I'm learning so much more from getting to see more of your process. Keep it up you guys!
Hi! We are excited to show you the next installment of the VW! This is a fun video that both Ian and Jamie filmed! See you all soon in the chat!
over in oz ,when we want to stick glass / hair to aluminium we drill 1/8 holes in alu then make sure its grabbed . then we sand off inside alu glass .. it never lets go. im nit being smart. just sayin ,sir. 5 star n ty Jamie for great video/editing
So what is the channels name from Ians other channel ?
Would've been awesome if mounted upside down 2 pair of boobies
And led driving lights on the fender would top it off nice
those heart grills are ass cheeks... youre usually on point with your wild visions but this one is bullocks..
You sir are unbelievable, so much gratitude for your gifts and your passion, your love truly shows in your work, i cant imagine how many people you inspire 🙏
That thing is looking Badass!!!!!! I love this bug, and those heart headlights really bring the "custom alive". When its paint time you should lay some heavy flake down. This bug is a whole new ballgame of customizing. I Love It!!!!!!
Thanks, we are really liking where this build is going as well!
Not true... why did you lie to this man? the heart grill is bullocks
@thomasstevenson5367 so anyone that doesn't have the EXACT same ideas and likes as you is known as a free thinker unlike yourself. Do you know what that means in America? I bet you don't. 😂
Oh WOW... That's some 70's goodness, right there!!!!
This is one crazy build. I love all the ideas. I realy hope it turnes out inzane.
Just a suggestion…when you do light up the hearts … led lights or a ribbon light around edges.. and brighter and larger led heartshaped main light with a smaller but even brighter Center lights for the high beams …. I don’t know if or how it can be done …. BUT if you put your heart into it ….lol. You can do ANYTHING.
C’est magnifique bravo 👍👍👍👍👍
Creativity and wonderful talent. Welded my first bumper for my tacoma. Thanks to you Ian.

You're being dunked. This has to be a joke.
"Dare to be different" Is the way I live my life!!! Especially when it comes to my cars!!! Needs red LED lights around the harts like halos!!! LOVING IT

Next, Ian will start putting eye lashes on all his builds. LOL
Gone to far
He needs to go back to the old shop at the ranch, like rocky going back to the old gym.
The creativity never ends! Always blown away. Cool to see real work right in front of my eyes. Thanks!
See , this is your artistic touch. I love it.The front looks cute and like you just want to give it a hug. Very happy. Certainly a show stopper.
Tail Christmas Tree lights would look funky partially protruding through the top of the rear fenders. The bug, I li it alot
im sooo glad i found this on youtube and your done with the tv show!!!! This is AWESOME!!!
Ian the vw is coming along can't wait for you to finish it. Follow your dreams and do your best at what you do. God bless keep smiling and have a blessed night
You're really a creative artist... I wasn't expecting the headlights but it puts a smile on my face! A build that is as fun to construct as it is to drive!
I always think you’re gonna take things too far, but when it’s all done you always hit it out of the park!😊
Thanks for the kitty hair sticker demo for attaching the metal pieces to the fiberglass. I’ll borrow that trick. ❤️😎
Diggin the rear fender concept and the heart covers!
Ian what huge shop you have now! I’ve watched you from the beginning and you have expanded big time. I’m a 1970 bug owner and get a get lock out of your customized VW builds. Wishing you all the success on your new shop and TH-cam channel. Thanks, Mike
Love your unorthodox approach to your projects.
Love that idea. You could go so many ways with that look & this one is a 10 outa 10 in My book. 🤘😎
Ian you are so remarkable, who would have thought this would work? Ian would have and brother this is so boss I So digging it!
I see the dream! Get better you two. I love that this style is carrying on. My grandfather was a traditional hot rod builder in cali and I always wanted to build something like this.
Ian, you are a "Wild Man" making "Wild" creations. Great Job!
Jamie's doing a great job filming your show as good as the TV people And I bet that Pisses the TV peopleTV people off to no end😊
Those headlight hearts are just badass
Nothing cooler than hart shaped bubble window,s becomes headlight covers 😅😍
A first for my eyes…Heart shaped headlights. Love it Ianand Jamie.
I'm watching from Brazil, and I'm happy to see your work. I needed a Google translator lol😅
Thanks for watching, we're glad you're here!
Only you can turn those hearts into headlights. That's why I dig your channel and wish you all the best.
Love you guys❤
And those headlights on the bug looks great,
It looks Alien !
Ian, you did such a good job with this video, even without Jamie filming 👏
Totally get your vibe for the headlights.
NEVER - have I seen heart headlights.
Once again - just like the doors - you create a totally unique look.
It’s a love it or hate it look !!
That’s how you roll🤠👍🏽
Love the head lights.
Interesting idea. It looks great, and I can't wait to see what you do with the taillights ! 😊
This is so cool what you do. Inspirational art. When you start doing things for you instead of everyone else, amazing happens. I see that on a lot of your past work where you're just left to your own devices. Cool happens. Love and Light to you and yours. 🙏❤🌹
See!? This is why I know it's going to be a treat every time a new post comes out. Who saw heart shaped headlights coming? NOBODY! Well done!
The new headlight design is brilliant. I love it! Just some quick feedback on the video -- the sound levels are going up and down more than usual. Not sure what went wrong.
Hey Deutschland hier, sehr geiler scheiß ❤❤
You did a great job on this one, love that americans take Our old VW stuff and turn it inkl something cool, and give it a New life.❤
Greetings from South Carolina...the lights are...Cool Man...Van- Cool.✌️👍
Love the idea of the headlights and tail lights
Very nicely done Sir, very creative use of those windows.
Didn't see that coming, but I really like them as headlights instead of placing them in the upper rear sides on the top... Custom Cool...
That thing's turning out pretty cool man I can't wait to see you finished
Awesome work guys love your content love from Australia
Awesome job thinking out of the box. Dare to be different! Good job it is like no other but we'll executed, nice.
Even at this stage Ian, the car puts a smile on my face.
When you were showing back of bug I got a flash of seeing a skull. The cutouts look like eye sockets maybe sweet and cute frontend and mean loud crazy backend
Ual! Isso é mágico!
Gives me flash backs to my wild days
Love the "LOVE Bug" Style on the front! I thought you should of use'd for the split window but....I Like your vision!!
I don’t hate the heart head lights, surprisingly I kinda dig them.
Thanks for sharing with us.
Hello Ian this is Fred the one that sent you to bubble windows awesome bro I like it
Thanks Fred!!!!
Hey from Missouri with a little snow today.
The heart headlights fits pachari. Perfectly
You definitely called it right when you said it would look like some funky sunglasses.
I was trying to imagine what it would look like if it had some rose colored lenses.
Thanks for such an awesome build.
Why not!! Its crazy as it is and those "heartlights" makes it crazyiestier!!!
It's looking great, thanks for sharing, all the best
Love the heart headlights, way kool !!
I stay subscribed, always like and usually comment. The bug is really looking cool as usual. You guys do good work and I enjoy watching you's work❤😊
I love everything you do. I'm not feeling the heart headlights though. I think perhaps a tear-drop shape might be better.
HOWEVER - It's your car and you can do whatever you want with it, and I'm sure it will look fantastic at the end. 😀
Wishing you a speedy feel better soon! Love the dream!❤
If it's different it's not the same. I like different. Very cool idea for headlights 👌 🇨🇦 👍
Crazy looking headlights and taillights, they look great
Heart headlights are so funky bug! Great stuff!
And as for the "christmas tree" tail lights. Don't have them pointing straight backwards, thats the boring route.
As Jamie said it's amazing Ian can't wait to see this in colour
I was camping in the woods this weekend and had a dream. This crazy fabricator named Ian customized my baywindow and it looked like a ufo complete with little creatures.
Sounds like you were having a wild time! 👽

A Crowd Pleaser!
Love the hearts !
Absolutely Fantastic...
I've used a heat lamp (like a brood light) to cure the fiberglass on cold days, saves a lot of time
You know what, you could also squeeze in a road or fog light in the pointed area of the heart... I'm digging it!!!
Head lights look cool! 😊 Good dream.
👽👽👽👽👽👽👽Gust rolled in, was out sellin my stuff & get to warm up watching you guys! George The GlassMan!👽👽👽👽👽👽
I love custom bugs. I was hooked on that GSXR VW video from a few years ago but I have a feeling that when this is done....
I totally dig the hearts for headlights 😂😊❤
Those taillights are awesome
12:27 Bill and Ted's excellent journey quote. Amazing
good catch, I missed it
I love the heart shape windows!!!
If it’s not weird it isn’t wonderful!!!
Yes!!!
Creativity is food for the mind .
