- This video gives you a tour of our 1978 VW bus camper! It should answer most questions on where stuff is and how stuff works! It will help make your camping adventure more enjoyable! Thanks for watching and have a great time in this really fun piece of automotive history!
You got a cool van! Ken and I Jen have a 1980 VW westfalia pop up camper van we are restoring! We cant wait to take it with us camping @ the Drive in! Right now its like a cream color on the pop up and body is a burnt orange terracotta color~ Ken wants to paint it like the color of the foam on root beer soda, cause our seats are a milk chocolate brown! Safe fun magical journeys with love and peace ya all! Jen and Ken! 🧡☮️
One of the best campers ever built! I can attest to that!
That's the best VW tour I've seen online. Now I know everything I need to know about a Combi! Brahma bless you.
Stunning van. I own a T5 but there’s something magical about these older campers
Great camper! My son and I are working on our 69 Ghia that we saved from the car crusher! Thanks for the tips.👍✌️
just bought a 79 westfalia i appreciate the detailed videos!
great!!
last weekend i spend it into an VW T3! It was fantastic!
cheers from Greece!
A super presentation, very well done and factual.
Awsome presentation. You know your bus by heart
Dont drive with this up 🤣👍🏻
Nice one. Greetings from germany ✌🏻
I miss my 78 bus:(
Legendary camper.... Great video, (how did you get Darth Vader to film it :-) ... Great content!!!
Thanks for sharing! I have the op to purchase one, just want to know how this air cool engine handles the extra weight on the Westfalia equipment?
Thanks for sharing!
The engine in this is different than the engine in the classic VW beetle right? Thanks for ur help!
Yes the engine in this is the largest engine they put in a bus of that year. It’s the 2000cc engine with the freeway gearing. It handles the extra weight just fine! It’s not fast but does 70 just fine!!! They are great little buses …
It’s so funny because VW called it the “ freeway flyer “ hhahahah
😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
Joli !
Your battery needs to be bolted down. I did not know that vibration from driving will cause damage to the plates inside the battery and shorten life. In my state, you will fail inspection. And in the Porsche club, you needed additional hardware to get on the track. Factory was not good enough...
Next, they need to check the oil level whenever they gas up. And you shouldn't have to tell them, but NO diesel. A friend of mine, her partner, put in diesel at the gas station, guess who had a $400 dollar tow bill ??
Thanks Dan, we just strapped the battery down ! I appreciate the help!
whats the weight limit on the roofbars? would they hold a sea kayak?
Al , I have no idea 😊 what does the sea kayak weigh?
How is it going now? Still rolling and renting? She's beautiful.
The bus is doing great! Still renting still rolling!
@@chuckstubbings6675 sorry how much per month?
@@victorantropologo are you wanting to rent the bus ?
@@beachgypsyclassics i don't know for sure because i going to visit a sick uncle, so after that i want to travel one month
Is there any difference between 1978 and 1979 type?
Not that I am aware of , but I don't know that much !
the guy filming is either mad , he needs to go to the bathroom or he is imagining him and his girlfriend by the beach you know wink! wink ! .
You forgot to show everyone how to work the A/C! lol
The camera man is breathing in my headphone 😭😭😭😭
Owned a 69 and the next-gen 1985...Prefer the next-gen for camping and touring.
