Happy Father's Day to one of the best Dad's in the world! Our best to Jen and Josh and thanks for the adventure. Man I miss New England.

[@DubWerks]

Thanks for the rescue again J! Love the look of the '64, just needs a bit of help LOL '67 will be at Terryville!

You can tell the character of a man by how he treats his kids, you're doing a great job with your apprentice! Enjoying watch what yer doing, and the guys you hang with are pretty good guys as well! Greetings from the west coast and happy fathers day tomorrow!

[@DarkElfDiva]

Will your children be sad when you die, or relieved? You decide. I was relieved when my father died.

[@eugenebaroni1298]

Another great save.... Happy Father's day have a great weekend 😊

[@ianmcnamee5243]

Just Great all they VW, but the Star is definitely Josh, what a great Kid, just full of excitement being with his Dad. And VWs 😄

[@stevefamfive]

Good story telling man! A very enjoyable 20 minutes. Josh is straight out of central casting as “the kid”.

Surprises are the fun part of buying used cars. And a car was pushed. I'm so glad I didn't know what a snow plow marker was. Great fun video!

[@ianrutherford878]

Here in Sweden they have trucks that drive stop start stop along the roadsides with a big magazine of 6 foot (2 m)stripey red and white plastic poles (used to be bamboo) the truck has an impact drill that makes a small hole and a robotic arm sticks a pole in.Every year before the snow and a taker-out truck in the spring. Exciting driving through snow drift country with only the tops of the poles to tell you where the road is.

[@jamesryan5181]

Wow. Josh is becoming a great assistant.

[@joshuapoche5137]

Man this video just made my fathers day. Just remember everything is fixable. Lesson learned always inspect every inch. Still a great bug with a few areas that need attention

[@5150mxVW]

Thank you , yeah I saw a few solid points and was super lazy on this one ...those damn BRM's got me ! I dig it , I'm happy with it , have a great Father's day weekend Joshua.

[@michaelb.42112]

I would wear ear plugs during the catsup / foil clean ! I LOVE it that your son is an enthusiastic mechanic !!! ( Whispering, "This is fun !" ) He's hooked. I also love that you and the local WKRP kid have history. Nice. My band was supposed to open up for Ronnie Montrose at the Last Day Saloon but he passed TWO weeks prior.

[@ladeseddy5994]

Everything else aside in this video, the best take away is Josh rockin' out to Rock Candy! Better than his love of VW's IMHO...

[@saltsal3500]

That is awesome your son just knew to immediately check the tank first that’s great starting the enthusiasm early 🤙🏻

[@bunzeebear2973]

As it is a 6 volt car & headlights. The eye brows were probably meant to reflect the light downward onto the road. I know on a 12 v, VW stock headlamps are nearly no light. I never had an old bug so am just guessing. . Am figuring either 3 1/2 quarts(or 4) to the full line most likely.

Well, I've spent less for a worse car - but she'll be a $6000 car when you're done. If the previous owner had to replace a qtr. of the floor, he should've just replaced the whole thing - but that horse has left the stable, hasn't it? Positives: It got home. And for Mr. DubWerks - he dodged a bullet on that unexpected oil change...but we learn something new everyday. Nice choice in oil: $1 Quaker State Peak Performance :) Thanks for havin' us over!

[@daveayres950]

Patchy have a nice father's Day guys patchy have a good father's Day guys

[@volktales7005]

Some new floor pans in your future, and some package tray issues. But damn those body mounts ARE nice! Those "eyelids" work great to protect CV joint boots on front drive cars when you are cutting off the sway bar bushings nearby... Both you and your buddy need to get rid of those crappy 009s and get the proper vacuum distributors back on. The drivability will be much better. And hope Dub's engine is not hurt too bad, and I always was a Jonny Fever fan!

[@5150mxVW]

aren't those body mounts fantastic :)) ...I just got my car and it came with the 009 . Dubwerks got the correct distributor for his shortly after the vid . I think his engine survived as his oil light came on and he shut it down . Have a great weekend

Damn, How long did he drive it with no oil? by the time the oil light came on the engine is toast. You could see when he took off the old oil plate huge chunks of metal. @13:00. Who doesn't remember to tighten the oil drain plug. Engine probably has 100 miles left before grenades.....

[@Chr.U.Cas1622]

Dear 5150mxVW and son. 👍👌👏 Very well done again (rescue, video and work... uhm... pushing single cab around). ;-) 2) Your newest purchase is still a good one because the car is in a really good condition. Some things simply have to be fixed. It is an over 60 years old vehicle in the end. 3) I really hope that Dubs bug engine can be saved. Good luck to him. As always: Thanks a lot for making teaching explaining recording editing uploading and sharing. Best regards luck and health to all of you. Post Scriptum: I simply love how your great little petrolhead son is acting. Well raised, maaan, well raised indeed. Congrats!

[@gazzafloss]

Well Jason, the '64 has its issues but nothing that can't be overcome, it still looks "the goods", and over here in Australia it would be worth at least $15,000 as it is everyday, who knows what when fixed up. You'd surely have a good rust free platform, a bit of "artfull" work to give it the original chassis tag number, you'll have a neat, valuable '64 40hp 1200. I'd love it with board racks, just like the one my cuz and I traveled and surfed the east coast of Australia in in 1967...

[@Trains-With-Shane]

Man I hope Dub didn't hash that engine. Wonder if he saw the oil pressure light and was able to pull off or if there was another more serious symptom. The grit on that plate doesn't bode well for his chances that it's not hurt. He may have to pull it apart and put bearings in it. Definitely some Amateur Hour work on that 64 but nothing that you can't clean up. Still a solid car. That wiring, though. Yeikes. -Shane
