Great job on getting that VW running, Jack. I had to laugh when the battery fell out! Back in the 80s my husband restored VW Beetles. We had a '65 that the floor was rusty but he restored the body and put a new paint job on it so it looked great on the outside. I was concerned about the rusty floor under the battery but he said no problem. One day I was driving it and it did a sudden death. I pulled over and a gentleman came running up to my car and told me a battery just fell out of my car. Well that explained why it quit running. I was not amused at the time, but we've gotten a lot of laughs out of it since then. I am a 76 year old woman, but I love to watch your videos. I grew up with a dad and husband who liked to work on cars, so I admire you for all you are learning. You have a wonderful dad!

[@brittonshupe]

I enjoyed your story! Memories that will last a lifetime. A perfect example of never taking life too seriously 🙂 It's so refreshing seeing this young boy have a proper, healthy childhood with a caring father figure.

[@clairereynolds8583]

See that? You saw it coming didn't you. haha I'm 72 and my brother ran old cars around my old pasture. One year hus "volksie" took the win, last man standing sort of thing. hahaha I guess that's why you and me are here.

It's so cool to let your little brother help as much as he can..i was a little brother too.. All it needs is a floor pan they're easy to replace I've done it a few times well worth it..have as much fun as you can..one day you'll be all grown up.. cheers 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

[@timcolton4680]

I would've never guessed in a hundred years you'd that thing was gonna run - especially like that, good work.

[@kevinfiebelkorn4715]

I vote for Pasture Bug. When I was your age (in the early 70's) I had a Pasture Corvair that I had a blast in. If all else fails you could always build a dune buggy. Looks like you're becoming quite the wheeler dealer Jack.

[@cheryladams7945]

I had a corvair in the 70s but Ralph Nader made us get rid of them. It was beautiful red and it ran like a dream

If you just got that for a couple T-shirts and a hat I would say he made a good deal

[@mattharwood4413]

AND also the License plate indicates it was licensed in California in early-mid 1973 (as indicated by the G starting the letters) . Those are nifty plates! More that worth the T-shirt! My sister had a '74 Super Beetle in that orange. Great original color!

[@EasyThereBigFella]

Sweet deal great work getting it running and rolling. I suggest leaving the engine right where it is, replacing the floor panels and start building yourself a street legal "Baha" Bug!!

[@doug8525]

That was so much fun! The motor sounded pretty healthy! Patch the floor and use it for a beater. Thanks guys!

[@Mimi-tu2ih]

Your little brother will drive it to his senior prom. Thats a great project for brothers ❤❤❤ So fun to watch your channel🎉

[@ICU81269]

Whatever you do save the vacuum advance distributor. I have rebuilt several. People loved to tear those out and put a centrifical Bosch 009 distrubtor and they never run right. If you can get it back to original and bring the chirp back then you know you have it dialed. Also there is a flap system in the air housing that is attached by a rod to a thermostat below the right side of the block. This is what allowes the engine to warm up. Most of the time people ripped those out because if they go bad the engine gets hot and will seize up if that thermostat fails. People always complained they had no heat because people tore all that stuff out because you had to change that thermostat regularly to protect the engine.

[@KensHobbies409]

That's a true Flintstones Bug for sure!! All You need is a new floor-pan & it will be fine. lol.

[@johnbohland]

I teared up when that old VW engine sputtered to life. How many youngsters even know how to pull or push start a manual transmission car? Love these adventures and videos. Oh, and the "transition" was very well done too! Have fun, be safe!

I remember having to get out of the car and do something to the engine to make it start. Once it started it ran great😅

It is so refreshing to watch these kids grow up just like we did in the 60's and 70's. With Morals, respect and a sense for work and above all Family values. I can see these kids drinking out of the water hose and outside playing and building stuff. Great Family.

This was great! Jack, is there anything you can’t do??? Losing the battery at the end was hilarious and the floor mat comment by Dad too! Keep up the great work, guys and we look forward to seeing next chapter of “Herbie!”

[@moderne-ist1612]

And the flintstones joke!

[@KenG557]

Kent, you're just a big kid! 😂👍👍

[@jujujustme]

Good for you for taking on a project like this! My first car was a 1974 VW bug. It was $400 bucks, and I bought it by selling my 4-H steer at auction when I was 16 years old (a long long long time ago!). It was a project car for sure! No fenders, no breaks and more. My dad and I got it running great and found parts from a local junk yard. Lasted many many years until it got smashed by a snow plow. ~ Great memories as my dad has passed now. So happy to see you out there working on this project with your dad. I see your's is a super-beetle by the way the spare tire is sitting. The floor is made separate floor pans/panels that can be replaced. Looking forward to seeing more videos of this project in the future. :)

[@KenG557]

My only Volkswagen bug was an orange convertible. (Black top) 😁👍

I have not celebrated and cheered on a video before, but I had a great time watching Jack get that VW running! This is my favorite video of the month. Way to go, Jack!!

[@loft1152]

It’s all win-win you got it running no matter what the outcome is and I love how your dad helps you watch is over you and gives you a hand you ask or need it but it still lets you take care of your responsibilities. I love it.

[@richsarchet9762]

After the throttle linkage came apart I once rode 5 miles on the rear bumper of a bug while my friend drove and I operated the throttle, because it beat walking that far! (Couldn't pick up a cell phone for a "Hey Dad" in 1982). Back in the day it was easy to get a brand new floor pan for an old bug, but I don't know if that is still true.

[@rinkrude1]

I would do the Engine swap to another Bug...besides the Floorpan the Interior needs everything. I don't remember if the 72's had a 1500cc or they were bigger. If bigger put it in a pre-70's bug. You guys have a fun life...

[@rosemaryabbott1020]

Jack, I am a younger granny of 68 years old and in 1972 I got my first car and even though I am a girl my Dad taught me how to change the tire, tune up the engine, disassemble clean and reassemble my carburetor and fuel pump. Later on I learned how to remove and replace the brake master cylinder in a Kharman Ghia. Oh yeah! My first car was a 1967 VW Beetle. Dark blue and I miss it.

[@cheryladams7945]

Jack I have to say the guy who got the T-shirt got the better deal! I'm not sure you can even get parts from that VW bug. My husband took two VW bugs, took the best parts and built me I really neat bug. He painted it metal flake blue. I so regret selling that car 😮😭 I'm wishing you good luck but I don't think it's going to work. I like your little green car that you are working on.

[@wendylou8963]

Great deal!! Classy car Jack

[@chadmark88]

You knew that battery wasn't going to stay in there FOREVER, Jack !!! . . . but I loved seeing you smile so much today - that's what being a kid is all about. ALSO, those sunroof bugs are fairly rare - keep it and put some metal over the holes in the floor, get a way to start it and turn it off and you can ride it around the farm. ( just don't make a KZbin video of it, like you said - we'll believe you !!! )

[@beckamax74]

This video was so much fun. Love seeing you and your dad working together. I use to have a 66 corvair,back in 2000. another car with an aircooled engine in the rear of the car. My ex is a red seal mechanic and I learned so much and was so fun to hang around the shop and get to knowing how to fix the belt when it would come off and so much more. How to drive with two feet to keep the engine running as it would stall before I could get it into the shop on the other side of town . Driving fast was fun too. Like it was driving that little Volkswagen around the field 😊❤️

[@LauraFivecoat-xn1gb]

Love watching your videos. I wear my Speed Bump Garage t-shirt and hoodie proudly in Wisconsin!!Awesome Family!!

[@besenzon1]

Great work guys !! 🤙😎👍 The engine sounds sweet ❤️ It’s alive !!

[@schnike0073]

Wow. What a find. Nice to see it has a factory sunroof. How cool. VW put foam in the C pillar which absorbed water and made rust. It's difficult to replace the C pillar metal but would be worth it in my opinion due to the sunroof or you could cut it out.

[@terrygarvin1392]

Had a girlfriend back in the day with a bug like that. She brought us a pizza at work and left it running. A guy tried to steal it but when he went to turn around he couldn't get it into reverse. You have to push down on the shifter. The channels for the hot air are one of the first things to rust out. That was an impressive start up. Y'all Rock!!!!

[@dizzle123able]

AWESOME!!!! We just got a 68’ Super Beatle. Going to rest with my daughter. She’s 10. We are excited! Love your channel!

[@sunriseexpress4961]

Very cool to start off what it was and to not only get it running but to be able to make it move under it's own power is a win win. The look on Jack's face when the fuel line came off is funny and his Instinct to head in the direction to shut the car off is epic. To top it all off it couldn't off ended any better. Fix what you got and it will be well worth it. Great video 👍
