I am a bit concerned about the oil cooler placement under the front.
As a former 1968 1500 owner for 13 years, your car is just amazing. I'm lost for words as to the amount of alterations, work, modifications, etc. that you've put into this vehicle. I want one! ( more than a merc. or a Bentley, or whatever) !
Thanks. It’s like a child to me.
That VW deserves more video time on TH-cam.
Exactly!
5 mins was up too quickly.
I want to build one and if its less than 10000 to build that would be awesome.
I love how genuinely happy this guy appears to be to just get to talk about his build.
That guy is way too modest. That thing is freakin' awesome!!!
Yes we need more people like him 😊👍🏼
Thanks!
You can hear the joy in his voice as he walk us through is car. Keep up the great work pops!
All I can think of is my buddies mid 70s YELLOW VW bug's breaks going completely OUT and crashing through a small wood fence then into the concrete corner of the Liquor Store. True Story (circa 1984).
Best off-road bug I ever seen! So dope
Eric Kauffmann 100% agreed
@In the desert You find some water I suppose that you've never seen a Dune Buggy or a Baja Bug ?
What the hell is dope?
Dope ....... wtaf
@@evopwrmods best off-road PRACTICAL bug. Lol
As the owner of nine VW beetles over the years, all I can say is "Wow!" You have done an unbelievable, impressive job. Every weak link, every soft spot in these vehicles you have addressed and hit head on! Amazing!
I always go back to this rig. I love it!
we need engineers like this guy to build cars i would love to own one like this.
@First Munch No doubt, just because bubba is a "Southern" jew does not mean that he can design and weld like bubba.
The VW was probably completely subcontracted. But hey, if Jamie Wiseman can make an honest living without fk'ng over anybody, well that is really saying something.
But like everyone else you wouldn't want to pay that final price. $$$
Yep
Facts
@@pauldailey4477 Subcontracted????? Dude I built everything on this myself. from the ground up!!!!!!
That thing is epic! Jamie obviously knows how to fabricate and it shows! Very nice rig!
VW Life shows how much time he spent on it
VW Life Thanks!
VW Bug camping
How much? I dig it.
Sup Matt Jackson!
This car is even cooler because of how humble that dude is about it. Everything is tastefully done.
I'm generally a stock type vehicle guy, but if you're going to do mods this is a good example of what a modded vehicle should be
Great showcase of this man's skills as a builder.
Thanks for sharing
abbaby555 you can tell he really spent time on it 👌

This is probly the best self built car in the whole world.. and some parts are salvage.. This guy can build.. man, this is awesome..
In a sea of JKUs, RTTs, and million dollar earth roamers, there’s this little home-built jewel that embraces simplicity and functionality.
Very cool bug👍🏼👍🏼
Wow awesome bug and love the colour choice man. Amazing detail and workmanship.
Cool build. With that color, it reminds me of the old military version that was 4 wheel drive
Best Bug I've seen yet and I was born in 67, so I've seen a few. Great vision, great taste, great engineering. All equals......Great Bug!
If you can design a kit version of this, it would sell like hotcakes.
In brazil its kinda common beetles like that
We have a lot of beetles and its paper cheap, so people here do aloy of shit with it
My favorite is a beetle with an Maverick V8, pretty cool
@@Gorecatto Não desse jeito.. Eu pesquisei bastante porque quero fazer um nesse estilo e não achei assim no Brasil.. os bajas que eu vi são mais rústicos, esse estilo street baja eu não achei (respondi em português porque vi que tu também é BR hue hue)
@@Gorecatto You should open up a parts store! Here in America parts are getting pricy. This is the reason why my '77 Beetle is not complete.
I would buy it for sure.
I had a 1964 VW convertible BAJA bug. The front end was cut and turned, pan reinforced, '67 H block, EMPI intake single port D heads, zenith 32 NDIX carb and the best part was the 1963 Bus trans axle with gear reduction boxes. Along with full roll cage, tilt font ned., 18 gallon 'long ranger' gas tank. and so on... A fun ride, for sure!
I love that,back in the day I ran many a bug and Things.They are great offroad vehicles when built a little ;that is a dream off road bug.I love how you kept the stock body and did not Baja it.If I could find a decent one I would try to duplicate yours somewhat.Outstanding.
I love restorations on bugs like these. Its so versatile. Though I love stock restores, but this just takes the cake honestly. It's so beautiful!
One of the best re-purposed vehicles I've ever seen.
I see this vw everyday in Tuscaloosa going to 82 off of i20 .. never thought I would see it on TH-cam 😂😂.. I’m working on my 67 bug and this popped up on the recommend
This one is tough as a nail. Congrats on build. I have been driving Bugs since 80's (currently driving '66 and restoring '74) and this is one of the best and most purposefull conversion I have ever seen.
Best restoration I've ever seen, that's for sure. Cheers to the builder 🍻
Just road tripped to Tuscaloosa from west TX. What a great town! Great bug! I have a stock '64 for when i want to relax. 40hp.
Very cool!
Dude! That is one of the sharpest off road bugs I have ever seen - good job!😎👍
This is so cool. Really nice job using some awesome skills man. Thanks for sharing.
Love a well thought out, useful, and well engineered vehicle.
Neat and clean work clearly show that he is perfectionist. Great job buddy
That is the neatest vehicle I have ever seen! Thank you for sharing! Fabulous job! Man, I'd love to have one just like it!
NICE!!! One off with great ideas. Enjoy your trip and share the ride.
The Bug is pretty sweet. I even like the color you painted it. All that hard work, being able to enjoy it is huge...
I wish you many memorable journeys in your awesome and one off Bug..... Truly special. Truly built to last. Thank you for showing us this beauty.
Jamie, that is the best conversion I have ever seen.
Nice! And could sell if produced in series! Very good looking and versatile! Here the term "Superbug" makes sense!
Probably the coolest bug ive ever seen! Nice work man!
I had a Baha Bug back in the late 70s and it was a blast to drive. This was the time when four wheeling took off and guy's were putting a lot of money in their trucks. We had a steep hill at the watershed and my Baha would beat all the trucks in the hill climb. It would also beat them in the mud pit as it had a skid plate and would just skip across the mud. Man, I had a lot of fun beating those high dollar trucks.
I miss the smell of and sound of them. We used to play SLUG BUG when we would travel as kids with our parents. Every time we saw a Bug you slugged someone. That's a beautiful ride brother.
That's great. I'm probably a bit younger but we always called it punch buggy. Your phrase definitely takes the cake
Miss my 67 baja was great if you ever got stuck you just got out grabbed the bumper and lifted it up out of the hole . Thx adolf for the memories lol.
That’s one of the rare off road bugs I’ve liked. You’ve got me thinking maybe my 72 needs to go off road.
Josh Schroeder my baja is a 72 too!! 😁 they are monsters
Is it a super or standard?
I think the Volkswagen God is smiling upon you! Thanks for making the bug and the video!
He did a great job.
Wow, beautiful beetle .you're good at narrating as well, as well as your voice
This is an amazing build. Love the thought and time put into it
Damn, Boy, What a handsome Johnny ! That down slope rooftop tire and hi-Jack holder is just killin' it. You gots some serious style. And Bucket Boss, too. Fine, fine, fine, to be sure. Here's wishin you many happy miles & smiles.
Had a Baja Bug back in highschool and absolutely loved it.
Well. This VW deserves a documentary.
Damn-um man.....I love it! You can tell this guy has the love for automobiles and he obviously is a smart man innovating and adapting. Great job Jamie. I hope we can meet one day.
Couldn't agree more!
Cool rig!!! Always loved Baja bugs!!!
WV Outdoorsman baja bugs are the best! I'm only 23 and my 72 was my first car!
Now that is incredible, that is one beautifully crafted off road bug, stunning 👏👍👌😍🐞
You created a gem out of a classic gem
Great work on this build.
Matt Falconbridge this thing is awesome! Mine will be here one day
Dude I’m a huge vw fan so this is a work of art in my opinion
Stellar work and craftsmanship--truly a labor of love!
Sure is!
Nice Beetle! Your comment about needing a custom bumper so you could still take the engine out. That is so true! The most important thing in a bug is being able to remove the engine. Because you are basically guaranteed to need to. They are super reliable, It will be broken before it hits 100k. Usually it will need a rebuild around 40-60k.
Friggen love it, want one myself, and I’ve never been a VW bug fan.
Badass Whip
Beautiful Bug. You should be very proud of yourself. It's a beauty. Great build.
Being a purist and an absolute anorak on the VW Beetle & the Honda Cub I normally hate any aftermarket modifications to either but this is really class. Hats off to a world class car.
Beautiful bug.. That's one hell of a bug out vehicle 👍👍
Love the ground clearance he achieved and new hp output of that engine.
Had a 72' super beetle in HS, miss that canary love machine. This guys baja overland bug is way nice. Good work! Thanks for sharing.
Awesome Baja build !!!!! And I'm loving that you kept it 100% VW power in then engine !!!👍 Very well thought out build , Fantastic job!!!
My dad enjoys telling me about doing the Rubicon in a VW Bug back in his Air Force days in the early 60s. They got out and lifted/winched it over the few really gnarly spots.
That cutting brake is pretty freaking cool.
Absolutely blown away! That is a MASTERPIECE ! a work of art! What a spectacular job!! WoW!
That is the baddest VW I have ever seen. You are an artist
The overlander version of a "Baja Bug." Pretty cool. Yesterday I saw a Toyota Highlander 4WD lifted and decked out with off-road gear. It was a surprise, but also very cool.
That's bad-ass! I love Baja bugs!
Beautiful man. You did a awesome job on this bug👍👍👍👍👍👋
Wow, super handy guy. Great build!
I'm not really into VW's but this one gets my attention.
Coolest VW I ever know, Impressive man, good work!
Awesome job and attention to detail. Bug looks great and must be very capable off road , well done!
That's really cool! 👍🙂
This is one mean bug ... amazing work done on it.
Really, really nice work here...thanks for sharing. Probably the most well done Baja style type one I've ever seen. Thank again.
One word "beautiful" awesome work.
Lovely! I remember I had a matchbox like this at young age was my favourite ;)
Man, that bug is impressive. Jamie is more impressive cuz he created that thing. smart dude.
Nice Bug... Looks like you put a lot of thought, engineering, work and love into it...
Great work. Beautifully thought out and executed. I want one.
That's one awesome build!
Love this..my late bro in law woulda loved this
This is bad ass bug. I have been a bug lover for sometime now ..great job
Debated about playing this video but damn glad I did. Very surprising build and show quality. Wished I had a bug to modify like this!
Can't even stand this thing but really appreciate the level of awesomeness it took to build!
THIS OLD HIPPIE WOULD LOVE TO SEE YOU BUILD A 1970 POP TOP CAMPER BUS THE SAME WAY
My plan is to build a 69 hitop like this, wont be an air cooled since Id need more torque and hp and big aircooled engines arent cheap. Check on Fresh Kustoms on fb or instagram, they lifted an early bay as much as they could and its amazing
1971 bus was the best - front disk brakes!
Excellent job! I'm impressed! That is one sweet bug!
This is a bad ass ride. Not a fan of bugs, but this has a spot in my heart
Love that bug, good job, I'm jealous.
I read about this car a few months ago. I'd love to see this in action one day.
love these builds, so unique and looks like a blast to drive.
This is a KICKASS dub! Bravo my good sir!
Man that's so cool...I want to build one so bad....my daily driver is a 74' Standard beetle...and I want another one to build one of these bad boys! Thanks for sharing man ✌✌
This is amazing!
What a nice little off road truck...
So well designed and nice proportions ... Love it....
I had a 68 baja bug on 30's. I was crazy in the mountains with that thing! Never stuck! Very cool man!
