Wish they mentioned the before and after vehicle weight. It looks cool, but it's a lot of trouble. Especially is it makes the UTV heavier and even worse top heavier. Good thing they made a roll cage.
Nice concept guys I would have carried the Louvre idea to the side windows as well .Here in South Africa we use to have the original Beetle converted Baja Bug with a body kit that use to include side louvers for that conversion...just what you could have done to keep it with the theme. The side louvers could also be functional as to help aid air flow and also remove excess heat from the engine bay considering there is no firewall in this set up
This episode its self showed me, One it's an ok show, watch what they do not what they say... Two, there two dude with the know how bit zero experience, and that's 100% ok with me... Goes to show any experience level can accomplish even the hardest tasks at hand when rebuilding restoring or flat out build
love the fabrication and original projects. lets build a 1964 ford galaxie that can out perform a 2016 mustang GT next !!, more power and pro touring handling.
I must confess I put a negative comment on Part 1. Due to two things, I dont like heavy vehicles and 2nd, Beetles are defenitely not my thing. But, this project is starting to like me. My only concern now is the bulkiness. It will be nice to compare original weight with the finish Side by side Beetle!
Rookie with a BR My X3 was tuned by SideBySideVlog and it makes 289 HP at the wheels. It doesn’t really need a four banger. The options for these X3s are endless. A guy in Florida’s X3 makes like 375HP.
Chloe Hennessey damn id use the rear engine platform and try to find a wrecked ford focus rs hatch and swap the engine and body like this guy and put wider wheels(convert from and off road to a welfare porsche)
This almost started to look like a descent episode with all of the roll cage stuff, then he said 37.75 x 2 is 65.5. He would have caught that mistake when he cut the tubing 10” too short, but he didn’t because it was already done. Everything about this show is baloney.
They lightened by removing glass but then added a bunch of steel and racks. Should have left the glass and made a mud proof enclosure. Cool project though.
That's why they did the exhaust, to gain all that power. Got 2hp maybe or even lost cause no tune was done. Added weight to the bug body that is already heavier then the plastic they took off. Waste of money
The body is on a lift.......that will lower all the way to the ground...... And you stood on a box and still had to reach as high as you could to get the window out? Common sense lol
I love all these keyboard warriors that know everything..its freaking free quite complaining and if u dont like it don't watch it and if u know better than these guys make your own video and post it so everyone can give their shitty opinions to u
this is just like that episode of Monster Garage with Jesse James, the episode with the delorean hovercraft. the one that failed EPICLY because they did the short cut of just slapping the skin of the DeLorean onto the hovercraft, they guy got fired and they tried to do it over the (CORRECT WAY) and make a delorean into a hovercraft. All you did here was put a skin on a 4x4. you didn't really do anything. you destroyed 2 cars, a TDI BUG no less. Rather than completely altering the bug, you took the dumb shortcut.
Show was a cute concept.... But it sucks. Bring back xtreme bring back Ian, get Lou to come on with him and do some real builds instead of cobbling bozes of parts together.
Yeah, because he made America so great so far...😒 even if it is the liberals starting shit, he obviously isn't doing enough about it, because shit just keeps getting worse. A vote for Trump is a vote for America's destruction, whether by himself or those he has failed thus far to stop.

Bad ass!! I think a firewall would have been ideal! So when you come to a stop, you reduce the heat and exhaust fumes from entering the cab.

Lloyd and Harry, will you be doing a series on recreating the Dog Van as well?
At risk of sounding stupid what may I ask is a "dog van"???
@@davidfindley1588 Go to Google and type Lloyd and Harrys Dog Van.
@@wicked650s ok thanks
Lol “Mutt Cutts”

The relay bypass ad was actually very interesting...
You took the worst vehicle that had zero testosterone and flipped it 180’. So cool. Love the show.
Someone forgot to carry the 1, 37.75x2 is 75.5 not 65.5
No doubt. I was like no it's not. LoL glad I wasn't the only one who caught it.
Yea I said the same thing!

Swap it with a 4 cylinder motor

Just wait for the next episode. I don’t think you will question the power.
12:06 Mega cringe, you murdered those O2 sensor wires, dude!
How much weight do you guys think you added? 800lbs
Really wanna see a before/after slalom-test..
i would have made a small "grille" guard/ tube bumper up front to make it a bit meaner lookin
HAMMER!!!!!-JEREMY CLARKSON
There's another dude on TH-cam that did the same thing and made it street legal. Even has a/c.
Name?
@@javierestrada8410 th-cam.com/video/SjwjsM8Pfgc/w-d-xo.html
"i didnt know it had o2 sensors" lmao
Maybe I'm missing something but 37.75" doubled is 75.5", not 65.5"...
2+2=5
Sooo being that heavy, can it actually do anything better than either donor vehicle? The only way it'll catch air now, is if you push it off a cliff.

Nice look.
This has been done. Most of the builds have been done. I mean, props for doing it at all, but do something actually unique.
These videos are old
heat the cutting end of the windshield epoxy cutter with a torch.
I would like to know the weight of the stuff taken off compared to what was put back on.
Loved it!🇺🇲👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👍🏾😎👍🏾
That bug finally went through puberty
How about a smog era 400 shoot off. With the likes of the Ford 400, Pontiac 400, Olds 403, Mopar 400, etc.
How much do yall want for those window regulators
They lightened by removing glass but then added a bunch of steel and racks. Should have left the glass and made a mud proof enclosure. Cool project though.
where's Curly?
Cheagle Thanks I needed a laugh this morning
This comment needs more likes.
He went with Shemp to go take care of some odd job or something.
He's the fake Cajun on the truck show
If the stock one rolled over easily i don't think a top heavier one will not. They should've got the wider version of x3.
already done go see street legal can-am x3 bug conversion!
Anyone have any idea what size their wearhouse is?
Will it have enough power? Like it otherwise.
HIPPIE NIGHTMARE
wonders why he sits on a box
doesnt wonder why they take off a light weight body and adds probably triple the weight
That's why they did the exhaust, to gain all that power. Got 2hp maybe or even lost cause no tune was done. Added weight to the bug body that is already heavier then the plastic they took off. Waste of money
Surprised that you didn't use a LED LIGHTBAR...
Do you guys work in a 50,000sq/ft facility? I couldn't tell
The whole facility is that size I imagine. They have all the Powernation shows filmed in that building in their own individual studios
Damn this makes me want to copy you all
You really need to add fender on it!!!
How much $$ for the bug
You’re supposed to heat up the glass
didn't know Blake Griffin was a fabricator
The body is on a lift.......that will lower all the way to the ground...... And you stood on a box and still had to reach as high as you could to get the window out?
Common sense lol
I like you guys but please use the bend deduction equation, cheat sheets don’t build pyramids

The stock Can-Am was way cooler, lighter, better...
Definitely do not want to roll it now. That sheet metal won't be as forgiving as the plastic was.ha
Are you done? The front end and wheel wells looks awful lol
Makes the big look better, but makes the SBS look like shit lol
Yeee
Woukd this be street legal now?🤔
Could be if no inspection required in the state Florida would be just fine with it being street legal
...

This is the worst show on the power nation, pure hack jobs every sink project!! Disappointing
To reiterate last week's statement, this is a terrible build.
These guys are the worst
