Garage idiots,not a place I would send my car?????
Dude I'm a little late to the party by about old one year but all I can say is great job right on man
@@RonNorman-qu4qz thanks!!!
Great video! Also, your voice isn't that bad, you're a funny man, I think you could do the voiceovers just fine. Keep up the great work!
This is amazing and has been one of the greatest series of 2021.
Thank you for getting there, keep going.
I'm very impressed. Love seeing you think outside the boring BOX! Turned out beautiful!👏
I too have been watching this build series since the beginning, and I think it came out better than expected for the most part. I gove credit for all the experimentation that was done on this chassis to see what works and what could be improved on. Thats what makes it a real build that's actually raced and driven hard instead of just parked and polished. Thanks for sharing this, it was nice to look back on the project as a whole from where ot started. Keep up the great work 👍
Mate you should be proud of your self for what you have done the cars amazing it really is I have followed the build from the start and was well worth the wait for the end result 👍
From start to finish you have brought the project a long way you've built something in your own style with your own ideas and tested ad developed your skills further keep testing your skills and putting more cool shit like this out on the track
Epic sums it up nicely.. Nice to see what happens when a guy has a vision and sticks to it. Lots of hard work paid off!
Let's do this Preston!! Bro like I said before . I'm very proud of you! Man you stuck to it. You envision what you wanted and you knocked it out of the park proud of you bro!!
Great build .Great humour .Great car loved to see yours and the cars progress 🙌
What an absolutely insane build. Fantastic work!
What the Ron doin?
Nice to see it come alltogether after all this time! Well done! I agree, that patina choice is great, and it turned out great!
its been such a great series to watch. its inspiring
Ive kept up 90% along the way... i forgot how much actually went into the jobe. I knew it had been some time but completely forgot about all the cutting and welding. Thanks for this one great reminder of what it took. Congratulations Preston youve definitely earned it. And your "team" as well.
(Edit) Personally I think she came out freaking beautiful man!! Would love to see it in person going down a track one day.
Been watching the whole build over the years Preston and you deserve to now enjoy it

Don’t forget to thank the washing machine for sponsoring its panels 😂
Wait is this the guy I saw on TikTok? I’ve a vague memory of the washing machine 😂
Out of all the things you have done, this is one of them, really enjoyed the build and can't wait to see how quick it ends up being, love the channel and keep it up mate 👌
Thanks Adrian!
such a crazy amount of work to get that kind of build done but there is nothing better than getting to enjoy a car you put so much time into
the whole way of the build you learned and improved so much . respect sir . bigg 😋 five from the Netherlands
You’ve done some extraordinary work! Well done! 1000%
WHOA! Yota chassis, Honda Engine IN THE BACK, and 2 halves of a VW body with metal down the middle. The confidence and lunacy it takes to see something like this through to the end is super impressive. Props.

Epic episode!!! So nicely edited! Keep up the GOOD work! Love fra Norway!
Hey mate from New Zealand, I subed for 3 reasons, 1 you pretty much never curse, 2 your humor is very funny and witty and 3 your talent is out the gate!!! Love your work brother!!!
You never, ever should apologise for having something to say!
Especially when its about your project on your channel.
And particularly when its this good!
This is outstanding stuff! Subscribed.
Love the beetle, been thinking about something similar for years but with a Subaru but doubt it will ever happen. This is one of the coolest videos I have seen - absolutely love what you have done, must have been a hell of a lot of hard work and I admit it's way cooler than the WRX - better fit and you actually did it... hats off....
Love your narrating style! Great little bug, too!
🤘 can't wait to see how fast you get going in it!
Hey the whole project is a credit to you all...great engineering, fab finish you all should be proud
Lol, it reminds me of a high school auto shop class project that went the other way when the teacher was out fir being sick for 6 months!!!
But I love it thou!!!
Dude the last couple off years was pure enjoyment. And still is.👌👍
Love the paintjob! Well done
Excellent job. I love it. You're patina idea looks fantastic.
Thanks!!
Absolutely love the bug. Didn’t realize it was a mr2 underneath n a chopped in half shell. Love the “ patina“ n the Gatling gun exhaust tip.
The car turned out so well and you were right the upbeat song was much better than the other ones
Great little recap but for people that wasn't here along the have not ideal the real challenge this was along the way. Day job,work in your shop ,and working on the Jeep and this. Your recap makes it look some what easy but it was far from that! You determination and times you may have felt like giving in but you never did.
Looks great and teaches that if you just keep at something no matter how long it takes can and will be a wonderful feeling. Yes things are going to go wrong and break but that's racing,hell that's live. I am loving seeing this but I'm sure not as much as you are racing it....
Great job man👏👏👍🏻
Car looks epic .Brilliant build
Love the minimalist presentation, but now I have to go thru and watch a more in depth version. Just left me with lots of questions about the build.
I came in late in the build and not even sure how I found the channel but I'm in for the haul now. This build is probably one of the most original ideas concerning a mr2 and beetle. I think it's fantastic. Keep it up, man!
Thanks Shawn!!!
I didn't realize how early in the project I actually started! Dude, you've done amazing things with this car. I'd admire your willingness to just hack into stuff and go at it!
As far as making the car faster, as long as the motor is safe with the tune it has, learn to drive it before adding more power. Your future self, teammates, family and friends will all be happy you did.
Thank you man. Much appreciated
That’s an awesome build 👍🏼👍🏼 love the paint job 🤙🏼🤙🏼
That's an awesome build. Getting the VW Beatle to fit the MR-2 chassi, must have been a pain...
Keep up the good work :)
Preston's is an artistic genius and entertaining as hell!! Love your narrations, you are freaking amazing in front of the camera. I crave more even while I'm watching. The editing and effects used... ugh... 3 chef kisses!!! Its great watching you problem solve, flesh out your ideas and accomplish your goals. I know you'll get better at the things you are learning because you dont give up or quit you work through it. I think you are talented AF.
Thanks Burt, I greatly appreciate the kind words. Thanks for watching!
You are absolutely talented.....excellent work
As an owner of both MR2’s and my first car a 1965 VW bug this is the best Bug ever ! My 65 VW was even Blue.
I’m a VW guy, even says it in my name.
Been watching since the beginning and it didn’t bother me when you cut the car. You had a vision and it’s been awesome watching you accomplish your goals and dreams. Can’t wait to see the car get faster and your driving get better.
The classic bug platform is the basis for majority of kit cars produced in history. They'd only be mad if the person never completed the project.
Awesome building 👌😀 excellent video !
Very cool… have t watched your videos in a while but enjoyed this one ..
Very sick build. Good job
thanx for re-inventing the Bug...very kool
Its been fun watching this build come along, holy shite it's been that long already?
I been trying to support the channel but after having been shot multiple times and unable to work, I no longer have a way to order stuff or sub to patreon. But when I get back to work, I'll be all over it! Thanks for the great content!!
I would be proud of the results. Well done.
Thank you, I’m pretty happy with it
So awesome you got to finish that project! Really sweet ride. Your paint job inspired me to do one like it on my 89 chevy 1500. It will be orange and white. Keep up the great job and vids!
Awesome man!!!
Sick build I do think it would look really cool with actual fenders but even as is it’s awesome and an amazing accomplishment
Bruh this is sick happy to discover you dude
Thanks!!
What a great work. This is absolutly no more beetle but its really cool
Loved watching you build this car
Great job to you, Preston and the rest of the
Garage Idiots Crüe involved.
Cleetus and cars October 2nd .
what a very clever and skilled man well done fella keep on
I really love the paintjob. I wanna make the same on my mk1 golf.
You got all my respect for this garage build! Best wishes from austria.
Thank you! I’m pretty happy with it!
Great job, you talk sense😉👍 love the video/work..
Outstanding work.
Awesome work love your channel .you do a great job
Thanks Clinton!
Hands down. ONE OF THE MOST BAD ASS BUILDS I HAVE EVER WATCHED LOL. GOOD SHIT MAN THING IS AMAZING !
Love the commentary, champ!
1000% NEED A POSTER OF THE BODY OFF SHOT! All that work! Watched every video!
Greetings from Brasil! Guess what? Only one thing left: lower the ceiling! This project is a great inspiration for us! Congratulations!
The car turned out way better than I thought it would. I have been following this build since the beginning. Seeing it without the body kinda makes me want to build an MR2 drift cart now.
Also, I would buy a poster of the pic of the bug with both doors open. Kudos to the photographer.
It’s a blast with no body!
There’s a lot of work that went into that project congratulations on a project well done. Don’t worry about the haters they will get over it.All the haters are just jealous they don’t have the talents and ambitions to create something like this nice work
Been here since the beginning awesome build good job man
Thanks dude, I appreciate it!
Excellent work fellas
Waw... Thats werry great job. And everything what i look all part is great .. Nice job bro...

Amazing bro, one of the best cars I ever...

Shane, thank you
You may say you don’t know how to drive, but you’re one hell of a gifted mechanic.
Thank you! Much appreciated!
This build was awesome 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Not a fan of chopped and ratrods but sure I can appreciate hard work and this is a great project!
Congratulations!
Beauty bro I love those but you took it to a nother level 👌👍😎
Lol I honestly subscribed when I saw the bulbs popped and saw the reaction to it.
buen video esperaba el resultado final y les quedo perfecto, exitos
Incredibly satisfying video.
Wow! It's.. Amazing, beautiful bro! I don't know what to say! Greetings by Argentina!
Proud of ya mate, just enjoy the car and learning to drag race it.. keep up the good work Preston
Thanks dude
Any time Preston your good bloke and I enjoy watching you moving forward each vid so keep it up, hopefully one day we will b aloud to travel again and I might b able to come ova from aus
Hellyah, very chill build bruh🤙🤙
Honestly I have this taste in my mouth for the German bug it has ran in my family since the 60s as my Grandmother owned both the super B and a regular beetle.
Brilliant mate! 🤯💯🔥💪🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
You're opening commentary is hysterical, lol! Honestly, I like these build videos without a voice over & prefer music so this got a big thumbs up from me! 👍🏼
>> I like these build videos without a voice over & prefer music
Brilliant not seen this done before
Es un proyecto muy loco, pero de eso se trata de hacer locuras 👍, se disfrutan y marcan la diferencia entre los que se arriesgan y triunfan y entre los que son conformistas. Excelente trabajo 🛠🪛👍👋 Saludos desde México 🇲🇽
turned out awesome
Amazing build ❤
This looks so dang epic
I had been watching that build not from very start but let's say just when u started cutting it into half, im proud of you brother and its gonna be a great race car, that u built every inch of, yourself! Waiting on the Jevette build and what is gonna come out like as a drag racer too!
Btw bug does need more power, (perhaps bigger turbo) and you sir need drag racing lessons to start kickin azz and make good times! Keep up the good work, brother
Shout out the voice over! This was entertaining as ..! Love the Car!
I really love the paint job...its one kind of a killer looks
Que precioso te quedó el auto... Muchas felicidades
Great build... Very thoughtful and crafty... And remember kids, the one person that's gotta like the end result is u...👍
Purists may be mad but I'm definitely not. Proud of you for coming so far with this - def looking forward to seeing it in person one day around CO! Be well
Ha, well fucking done lads. I absolutely love your straight up sarcasm! Great video, great effort. Enjoy it, you earned it.
