I am always willing to help out those who are willing to help out others.👍
That is so sweet of you! Thank you for the support ❤
Thank you so much brother, you are a very kind person. That was very nice of you. I hope to see you again soon.
Had such a blast going to the salvage yard! Thank you all for going with us. This community rocks! ❤
Thanks for always going with me, you make everything so much more fun.
Last year of the std. beetle, and fuel injected to boot.👍
That looks like a good start.
Awesome guys , I’m here in Alabama, north Al, I’d be interested in the price point , was just contacted by someone who knows I am a Vw guy with a car in almost same shape , he’s set a price and won’t budge at all , but I have about 33 cars at home and do not need another but I like em ! Hope to see next video . New sub .
Yes, do a "Will it Run," video! I've been compiling a list of things to do before trying to start a bug that hasn't run for 40 years or so. I'd love to see a video with all that covered. I've been patching together the list and I think I have it down right but it would be nice to see what you would do.
👍
Very much worth saving from what I saw. The fact that it’s not crusty around those doggone vents behind the rear side windows makes it better.
Oh and to all the folks who don’t like the 1970s cars like this; they’re all worth saving! They ain’t making any more of them!
I agree with that!
I love salvage yard stuff! There’s a guy near me in Young Harris GA with 15-18 beetles he is selling for parts. 500 without an engine, 1500 with. No titles, parts only.
Yes, will it run and body off (replace floor pans) would be awesome! Does look decent. (Hope it works out)
👍
Actually this is a great find. It would be a great project and might be able to avoid painting maybe just a touch up or two
😊 That is what I thought also! I love that blue!
I’m hoping I get it, I’m second in line hopeful
You guys WILL get it to run!!!
👍
Great video specially the end.
Look forward to seeing the project. Absolutely, do a will it run video.
👍
I had a sunroof car missing parts and they are not easy to find, at least at a reasonable price. I eventually found a guy who cut off the roof to make a roadster that had a sunroof and the parts. But it stalled out my project for about a year.
Man I really hope y’all can get it… I cannot understand why anyone does not like the salvage yard videos. They’re always so much fun…p.s. But will it run 😳🤣
Hopefully it will! 😊
Of course I made it because Heather was in it. You two are so cute together and I bet it will run. Looks like a solid do. I love that blue with the white interior. My 78 had that color combo and looked awesome with the white top. To bad about the FI. ✌️❤🤙
Awww your too sweet!!!!! 😊
I made it! :)) Love the color....hope you get it....
You can second guess Heather, but you have to be willing to consider her advice and suggestions are thought out and sound. Works with my wife!
❤
Dude, the lady wants you to buy a VW. Don't argue with her. Oddly, my wife aquired three out of my last four cars for me. One was 50% under market, two were free including my 1990 kombi. She is just way better at talking people out of their vehicles than me. 😆
😂 that is funny!
Thanks for the video.
Nice
Will it run!! Let’s go!!
👍
The original color was Bahama Blue with that whitish interior. It was a sunroof with a/c? Wow someone paid for that car in ‘77.
Enjoyed watching the 2 of you till the ending. Kind of reminds me of when we bought our 71 convertible in 95. It’s now starting a remodel. Hopefully it works out.
Thank you so much for the generosity I truly appreciate that from the bottom of my heart. I’m second in line so I am still hopeful.
Thank you so much!!!! 😊
IRS and the last year for that model. win/win
I agree with Heather 💯
👍
More Please!
👍
Always a good time at the salvage yard, can't believe a car that nice would be there.
Will it run !!!!!!
I have a 77 also that was sitting in a field not as nice as yours but I’ll definitely waiting for a will it run‼️💪🏾
👍
I just picked up a 1977 last month.
That Looks OK I don"t mind The 70's Beetles , I Just welded up them Moon Vents In bess , Never liked them , Mainly Water intrusion and the look of them , It Should get enough cooling (airflow)
Still has the sticker with original paint name/number code, behind the spare tire.😎
Shit I missed it!
@@HeathersHaven Now you know where to look for them.
@@vintage76vipergreenBeetle 😊
I love how you have the two cameras. Makes the video look very professional and entertaining. staying tuned to see if it runs?
Thank you so much, I am hoping to get it I’m second in line but still hopeful.
If it meant to be, its meant to be. Good luck! @@SladesVWBeetle
Thank you my friend.
👍
Yes on the will it run!
👍
If the heater channels below the silver door sills are solid, it should be a easy restoration project for you. Who ever ends up with it. Needs to put a car cover on it asap. Will it run video,would be fun to watch. To bad it doesn't have the original FI engine.
I’m still waiting on an answer. The guy before me is still debating. I just wished everybody would decide what they want to do. I did tell the owner, I’ll give them one more week if not then I’ll keep on the 68 of course regardless, and then look for the next project.
@SladesVWBeetle
A higher cash/ trade offer to owner would help move things along.
@@vintage76vipergreenBeetle I tried that little trick, lol
He said he’s trying to be fair. I’m probably getting the Ghia regardless. I don’t know how many will see this post lol I really wanted that blue 77 badly.
@@SladesVWBeetle 🤞🤞 for good luck.
@@vintage76vipergreenBeetle Thanks my friend. Before I bring the Ghia home I was looking up body panels.
I don’t think that many places sell them over here, but I did find one for rocker panels
Grab it and go for it. I love my 73. Waiting for the body off and will it run video.
👍
I think I have a complete AC system with pump, airbox, lines, condenser, etc. If you're interested, drop me a line and we can work something out! I'm local in MD.
😂 I was wondering who was doing the filming.
😂 shh it’s a secret
It’ll run
Agree!!!
nice. i made it.
👍
Can't believe that Bug is still available.😮
He really hasn’t told anyone about it, and not many people go to that location. I really want to grab it but I realized I have to be careful in my Township with cars in my driveway. Not inspected.
@@SladesVWBeetle 77 looks like it going to need less body work, than the Ghia to get back on the road. I would sell the Ghia or find a place to hide for a while. Just my opinion. I wished I could find 77 sunroof bug in my area in that condition for cheap $$. Sellers in my area are asking 5K or more for cars in that condition with no sunroofs.
@vintage76vipergreenBeetle wow, that’s very expensive. Funny you brought that up. I just mentioned to Heather last night, wonder if we should sell the ghia to gain that beetle.
@@SladesVWBeetle
Do some research on the 77 cars.
I made it!!
👍
Will it run…yes
👍
that body is better looking than my 73. well... its a running rust bucket
Late 70’s (73 and up) can be very rusty. That beetle has a story. I think someone decided to paint it before they saw the floors. I don’t understand why they didn’t put the windows back in at least to keep the rain out. It would be an easy fix to resell.
Will it run? Don’t crash the car!
😂
Nice looking Bug! Will it run?
👍
Now the question of the day is Will it run
👍
Newbie here! What’s the purpose of the magnet testing on the body???? Love your videos. I’ve learned so so much!
Hi! Welcome aboard!!!
Checking for body filler, magnet won’t stick to it.
But I’m sure Slade will give you a full answer! 😊
To find out if its been in an accident and repaired using filler as HH said.
Thank you for being here, using a magnet will tell you if there is metal, or Bondo in that area. Basically body putty.
I got my first VW about a year ago, 74 SB convertible. It’s a project in the works, but I’m so in love with it. It’s the funnest car I have every had! Thank you so much for this site! I search it all the time for answers to my MANY questions. Love you guys!
Hey Slade! I have a shot at getting a 67 beetle with all the metal repairs done, new floors and heater channels.. good interior but no engine.. $2.4k! What do you think? I’d have to find an engine
Finding an engine would not be an issue. That’s honestly a good price at least in my area from the way you described it my friend.
@@SladesVWBeetle yeah, I know! I thought the 67 was the unicorn of bugs!!??
I live just east of Buffalo, I know you’re not too far!
I made it! But will it run???
👍
Will it start video required!! Ha ha!
Agree!
Well.. I never heard you say if you got the chance to purchase this? Did the person ahead of you snag it😢
Great video as always. What shape was the Karmann Ghia in?
Honestly it needs a lot of work. But I still really want that car too. The 68 will be done right at the beginning of spring. As long as I can get body panels, I think the Ghia would be a lot of fun for the next one
Will it run?🤔
👍
I made it, but Will it run?
I’m willing to bet it will! Thank you!
