My grandpa was german to him beetles was like god creating sunshine. I didn't find out until years later when he confessed he cheated playing slug bug when I was in grade school he'd pick me up after scoping out nearby parking lots! I love that SB game and everytime he picked me up (in his beetle) I'd get in the car so ready to throw serious pee wee punches down all upside his head. Cheating at Slug Bug should be a holy sin I was pissed when I found out but also..That was pretty F'n awesome Grandpa Rhiney touché

Thank you. It never occurred to me to check Rock Auto.

Always simple explanation well narrated and super easy to see all the details , this makes it to us that love to thinker with our bug Thank you

I had a Karman Ghia and Bug in late 60's. Loved them both !!

Is it ok to keep my 6volt horn? I really like the sound of it. And for a voltage reducer ; is there one for the radio and horn on amazon?, if so, which one . Thankyou much

My first bug was a 65 and my dad purchased it when I turned 16, it was great, had a stock sunroof and I pretty much made it into a cal look, dropped, one piece windows, louvers. I loved that car in high school. Growing up in Southern California, my mom had a 71 with the automatic shift purchased brand new. So many memories listening to AM radio and hanging out with my mom as a kid. In 77 dad purchased a white on white convertible super bug and it was special. It was given to me as my college car and I basically kept it stock but lowered the stance slightly and had the chrome hubcaps with 50 series tires. It was a looker and I kept it clean. Sold it to go to school in Switzerland. I love bugs but when I first laid my eyes on a 356 speedster that was dropped, it took my heart away. Would have loved to have had a notchback or a ghia but if I had a choice, a 64' 356SC would be my upgrade. Cheers!

Hope you all have a very Merry and Blessed Christmas. God bless

My first classic is a zenith blue 67 ❤ im starting the process to get it restored and doing a lot of research. I love learning new things about them

The Ruby Red Paint Color Is Absolutely Gorgeous 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 BEAUTIFUL BEAUTIFUL BEAUTIFUL RESTORATION 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Merry Christmas!

You mean 2025

Chris, excellent lighting and camera work. But I think you need to do at least one thing to be more like Alfred Hitchcock, you need to put a 1967 Volkswagen bugs somewhere in the scene.

This looks incredible. The backgrounds are so rich in detail. How did you write a screen play for something like this 18 years ago or I should say how was this level of detail described in a screen play?

Awesome video thanks for Sharing👍🏾💯

Did you say it was called Honda Bond ?

That was amazing. The creature designs were incredible. The character movement while running looked very good. A lot of times the movement of the lower legs look really strange when running or walking. I really enjoyed this film. Wish I could be more eloquent.

If she was the one washing my car, I would have it washed a lot more than "now and then."

Hi chris do you no where or if you can get 6-volt led brake lights and turn signals

Chris, I'm from Canada.Can I post my sixty five bug on your website for sale?

If the Ford Model T was one step removed from a horse and buggy, the VW Bug was maybe two steps further along. I sometimes call them the VW Analog.

You better put that movie on FF because Biden is already going to pardon the worse of the worse onto our streets. 37 just announced yesterday.

Gave 5k for 71 squareback in april. Stripped it down, the body shop is just about done with rust repairs. I tore the motor down the case is no good. Neither body work or a new engine were on my list early now i got a year before i can drive it. But it will be a nice basically new vedubu. i learned a ton on your channel. I draw 4 panel comics i want to make shorts 🤔ai can do that

All those years ago, could you perceive the world would be locked in a battle of Good -v- Evil nevermore clear headed into 2025? AI reminds me of when 'drones' first entered the lexicon: Bush era neo-con forever war sky assassins, but then the People showed the peaceful use, indy film makers gained access to camera shots once reserved for Hollywood studios. Depending on the day, AI seems Hell sent itself, i.e. an attempt to re-create Creation. Nevertheless, it would be dishonest to not acknowledge the incredible ability to be able to more easily visualize the stories of through the original author's eyes.

Merry Christmas. Have been watching your videos since 2012. Love, love love your content. Awesome you listen to PBD. Also thanks for the new parts supplier.

Belongs in a museum my friend.

Where's the bug?

Ya, looks cool man, I kept expecting an apocalyptic bug or bus to show up and save the day tho 😂😂

This looks fucking bad ass. Nothing looks like this I've ever seen. I would watch this in a second 😮😮😮😮

Hey Chris. Great looking movie. When does it come out? P.S. I guess some people don't know that, in the very beginning you wanted to make movies before you started working on Volkswagen bugs. Keep the great content content coming, I am here for it.👏👍👏👍👏

Amazing thanks chris I love you videos thay help so much 👍

I subscribed to this site for Classic VW stuff, not unrelated movies.

So this is how you get your NOS parts....beat it out of them 😅....I'm kidding...this looks good

My first car was exactly like this one. What wouldn’t give to have it back. 😭

Merry Christmas to you and yours! Personally I like the shop how to and the barn finds. The will it run with your dad was great. Thanks and have a great 2025!!!

I love how he says "I am not an expert on seat upholstery", has his workshop filled with materials for seat upholstery.😂

My favorite VW ad was a billboard. A head-on view of a VW beetle, with the title: "0 to 60 mph? Sure!"

Thanks Chris for all your How-To videos. I have a good looking and running 66 Beetle due in a large part from what I learned from you. Good luck in your new direction and Merry Christmas.

Liquid cooled

i wish this video was 1 minute plus of her washing the car

Chris, good for you and your film making! Stay creative! I'm a 67 year-old production music composer who also loves driving my '67 bug and is not afraid of AI. So the best of all worlds! Keep up the great work and congrats on increasing your KZbin viewership like that. Happy New Year!

I bought my first beetle 24 years ago, I found your channel about 16 years ago, and wow, it helped me so much, step by step fixing my beetles by myself, I have learnt so much from you, still learning. When I have a problem, first thing I do is search through your channel. As much as I can't stand AI videos, I want to wish you all of the very best! Have a great Christmas and Festive Season! From South Africa.
