[@hashemalrawee8710]

Wow it is very nice episode thank you very much and very nice restoration project

[@Askjerry]

Mitch, as much as I hated to see you leave... you gotta follow your dreams. I didn't... I put it off until I was older... I had a chance to see China, Africa, Scotland... but I didn't go. I spent money on a house, cars, etc. Now... I'm older and I cannot afford to go to those places and do the things I wanted to. You are young... you have the ability to do it because you have worked hard, and you have your KZbin channel to help. So yes... I agree with you... do it NOW while you can. There is always time to do the things at home... but you will run out of time to actually go live life. SO I am happy for you my friend... i wish I did the same when I was younger.

[@Adaml_306]

“Dreams don’t work unless you do” I love that. So true! Cheers!

[@notchboy]

Wow. Nice leg up on your dream to have Skinner Classics open their shop and home to you. Not may dreamers get that when rebuilding their expensive VW habit. #praisethelordforSC

[@bluetickhound16]

Nice to see Kona getting a facelift! No half measures being taken either... it’s being done right every step of the way!!

[@onehappykombi]

The attention to detail you are putting into this project is unbelievable!! You will definitely enjoy cruising around Hawaii in this Bus :D

[@scottpella7419]

Another awesome episode!! Robert is such a patient guy showing you how to do a bunch of repairs on your bus! So great to have friends like him in your life!! Thank you for taking us along to watch your bus get restored!!

[@brucestmartin777]

Great video Mic... I can not believe how much work you are getting done.

[@danieloliver20]

Mitch, this is a great series to show what goes into a quality restoration of a classic VW. Skinner Classics looks to be a first class operation with great people from the owner to all workers. I'm glad you were able to film and take us on the journey of restoring your "new, bitchin" splitty!

[@bagr2000]

man, im waiting every part of this vid. Just don't stop and your dream will came true.

[@nathwilson22]

my favourite series on YT at the moment, nice one Mic.

[@PJ-Slots-Entertainment]

Thanks for sharing this story. Really enjoying watching it. True reality TV.

[@photohum]

So great that you have the opportunity to be there learning from a pro and working on your bus. 👍👍

[@MicBergsma]

[@stefanoderosa9062]

Complimenti sei bravissimo... un caloroso saluto da Stefano De Rosa... dall'Italia

[@ericlunn5323]

Clearly a labour of love . . .

[@deanrobinson3717]

I would be stoked just to watch these guys work, lucky man having this excellent team of guys working on your bus pal. Excellent work Mitch

[@dzrotary]

Hey Mic ,I couldn't stop watching all your videos .spent the entire day yesterday and I blacked out at #12.lol. You got some amazing skills dude!!! I see where you got them from !!! I love vw wagons and my wife's grandpa had a few and they called them combi.I have 3 vw wagon toys and a friend went to Cal and got me a sticker of a wagon with a surf board anthe driver kinda looks like me . I'm putting in in my Volvo wagon 24o that I'm modding. Glad to see your ride is coming along better than factory.a good ex-coworker was teaching me sign language. Take care .Greetings from Chicago Dz

[@baix5610]

Thanks Mic for your videos you help me so much for mine.

[@dennisc.1189]

You are digging deep into the bus it will be a new bus when Skinner shop is done with it.

[@colosweden]

Excellent, you are working on your project, restoring the WV bus! I love to learn any old restoring vehicles, my dad had 1929 model T Ford car and truck and also 1932 V36 Cadillac. We had one 1967 SL270 Mercedes Benz as well. Never forget the moments. I am enjoying watching many of your videos as well as I am deaf.

[@MrFenn2010]

Amazing working with Robert

[@johnwesterman]

Nice work on the bus. Inspiring.

[@stevemitchell238]

Now thats cool a fram stand

[@mecanicadobairro8107]

Hey Mic, I follow your work from the beginning, here in Brazil these vans have a nickname of "corujinha" that in their language would be something like "little owl" and formerly had little value, currently are difficult to find in good condition as they were used to the limit and then discarded, I am amazed to see how enthusiastic you are about restoring these little jewels and how easy it is to get the body/mechanical parts, where they were made there is absolutely nothing to sell and when you find it the value is unrealistic. I'm following ! Success in the project, Brazilian greetings.

[@plebeurbana]

I am surprised too with the replacement parts available in the USA. Here in Brazil they does not exist or are too expensive.

[@goriopukolo]

i really admire you sir mic,..making hardwork the fun way and easy...go go go ..

[@MicBergsma]

😄🙌🏼

[@TomKenyonStuff]

Thanks for showing such great detail Mic! It's so awesome to watch Kona get rebuilt.

[@earthbound4now474]

Awesome effort by all👍 looking at all that work makes your Dad wise to pass it on to the professionals. Soon your dream on wheels will take you and the missus on wonderful adventures. Thanks Mick from an avid Aussie fan🤗

[@shanepauls9210]

A well engineered bus back then no wonder they are still on the road, plus professional people keeping them alive.

[@dzrotary]

Was cracking up at 16.42-44 when you stared in disbelief when glob came out of the transmission!!! Just funny but glad it was ok. Have u ever heard of evaporust? It works warvels and cleans the metal and is bio!!!

[@tomsummers1137]

Hey Mic. Greetings from San Diego. Another great video. I’m sharing these videos with a friend of mine in Tijuana who has a body shop who works on nothing but VW buses. Robert Skinner and his family are my friends, and we’ve all benefitted from their expertise and generosity. Skinner Classics has contributed significantly to many projects in the last few years, including LIGHT The Woodstock bus project and Ben and Leah´s KombiLife bus Boomerang, both of which I got to be a part of. Kona the Bus will have many friends all around the world.

[@piaggioape4616]

Hay Mick, follow ur dreams , it's an great job what u are doing. Soon will the result being great👍👍🇱🇺

[@Criturbay]

[@awsomeassistantthebest1825]

Just FYI next time try a chain in the gas tank to loosen up most of the rust first and slide it back and forth inside then use the cleaner for faster dissolving of the rust LOL
