A complete, solid, running, driving riviera camper bus for 4500 is awesome! I had a 71 and 78 that I sold in 2002 that I've regretted ever since!! They weren't worth shit back then tho. ✌️from Ohio
Did you see the mouse jump out around the right side passenger seat around the 14:41, 42, 43 mark? 😂 Great bus! Its going to look great once its buffed! Happy belated birthday.
Happy birthday... Congrats on Gina. She's a cool old camper. It runs decent and the blue paint will look really good after you get it all shined up, even with her flaws.
Happy Birthday! A Bus is an awesome gift for yourself! Excellent Bus. Excellent price. You did extremely well. If I was buying, I'd say $7500 would be great. If I was selling, it would be cheap. I sold my '78 Westy a couple of years ago. I miss driving it. Can't wait to see it cleaned up and buffed out. I hope you fall in love with it and keep it. 😂
Happy Birthday Jayson! That was a easy one compared to your usual rescues ( 15 window) !!! She's a sweet bus, I cant believe she ran without replacing anything! Im still driving my 80 Vanagon i bought new, the older buses have more character ill give you that, but I still get a wave or a beep every time I drive her! Hope you had a great birthday with the family!
Hell yeah Dude!! Nice looking Bus! But i tell ya I gave up on those type 4 engines years ago! And my life has been much more pleasant since then!! Haha i always put Beetle motors in my Buses! Gets rid of all the headaches!!
@vwcadwagon yeah man if you can cross your fingers hard enough, maybe the oil galley plugs don't pop out randomly and the valve seats don't drop out when you least expect it, or the cam gear rivets don't fail unexpectedly. Then good luck trying to get the poorly designed exhaust ports to not leak! Not to mention the whole engine weighs 50% more than a type 1 engine. That being said i love all VWs, I would love to have a type 4 coupe sedan!!
A trick with those fuel injected buses is to turn the key on and then push the flap open in the air fuel meter. This will turn the fuel pumps on which pressurize the system, and makes them much easier to start.
Were big fans of your show,we keep hoping and dreaming of finding us one of those ,bays are great rigs one of these days,we would like to come up that way ,as I said before there getting harder and harder to come by,awesome bus man!
Happy Birthday! I found a '78 Westy by me, but couldn't get thru to the owner. Went by the place the other day and it was gone. But it wasn't any where as nice as your Rivera. Congrats.
Had a '71 Baywindow for $100. Put a 1600 dp in it without a mustache bar and drove it to Colorado from Louisiana. Got back to Louisiana and put a master cylinder and a better clutch in it and that bus rocked till 1988. Sold the motor out of it for $500 and got $100 for the carcass. One day I'll have another. LOL Not likely. Great video. HAPPY BIRTHDAY
Can’t believe it! Jay bought a running van, with floor pans. 👍😎 Happy Birthday buddy!
Very disappointed getting to be a slacker in lold age. Ha ha😅😅😅😅

I think you got a good deal and it has very little rust. It will clean up very well but I would put some paint on the front. Happy Birthday Jason. 👍👍
Happy birthday from the UK!!!! Great bus/ van!!!! Long live the ‘70’s!!!!

Great bus! Its going to look great once its buffed! Happy belated birthday.

Happy birthday... Congrats on Gina. She's a cool old camper. It runs decent and the
blue paint will look really good after you get it all shined up, even with her flaws.

Hell yeah Dude!! Nice looking Bus! But i tell ya I gave up on those type 4 engines years ago! And my life has been much more pleasant since then!! Haha i always put Beetle motors in my Buses! Gets rid of all the headaches!!
Also Happy Birthday to the Raddest Dude Ever!! Thank you for all the inspiration!!
They definitely are harder and more expensive to work on. But when they're running right, they're great.
@vwcadwagon yeah man if you can cross your fingers hard enough, maybe the oil galley plugs don't pop out randomly and the valve seats don't drop out when you least expect it, or the cam gear rivets don't fail unexpectedly.

That being said i love all VWs, I would love to have a type 4 coupe sedan!!
Wth, I come for a good pushing and digging cars video and I get a run, drive, stops video?
Another nice acquisition, thanks for the video, J and Dubs.
Congrats and Happy Birthday! Mine is Thursday and I know I won't get anything that nice, I envy you!
A trick with those fuel injected buses is to turn the key on and then push the flap open in the air fuel meter. This will turn the fuel pumps on which pressurize the system, and makes them much easier to start.
Thank you for the tip ! I haven’t begun to learn about these late bays yet .
Secret switch 😂 ask Manual he won't say just gives a look!!!; )
Happy birthday Jay 🎂 🥳 😊
Thank you 97
