Its First Time Overlanding / Baja Bug VW Beetle Overland Build

We take our Bajabug VW Beetle Overland Build out on its first overlanding trip! Does it survive? Spoiler alert: we have plans in place to take it on many more trips in the very near future! We did have a few problems we had to deal with along the way though. Below is a link to a review video on the small fridge you see Merri putting beer in. Along with a link to the fridge itself.

Really enjoyed your video. Exhaust fumes may be getting into the cabin through the channels in the roof where the dome light attaches. Those channels continue into the engine Bay Area. I stuffed microfiber towels into both channels by the engine and it really helped.

A heavy coat of Rain X on the windshield will take care of the wiper problems.. you won't even need em.. put a refrigerator magnet over the hole and see if that will slow down the leak... If it doesn't, there's always caulking of some sort.. Enjoyed your video trip.. I'm looking to build me a Baja as well... Take care my friend and God Bless....

Looks like a great time! I was thinking about maybe building a Baja next year. I am from Illinois as well.

I've been driving bugs when I was a kid in Phoenix... On the subject of oil pressure it was just pretty much regular thing to come up to a stop light And the oil pressure idiot light would be flickering And they're set to about 3-5 PSI..... in a bug would run forever as long as you didn't Hammer the clutch too much.... that's the weak spot on them bugs that thrust main bearing on the flywheel
