Replacing Heads On An Aircooled VW Engine In A Parking Lot (Bug Jam 2017)

[@paulzugg7558]

Hats off to you. My wife and I drove down from SC 1200 miles round trip. If we had broke down my wife would never get back in the bus. We have made the trip 6 times. We typically don't go to bug jam

[@gottasplit5707]

Ha, l feel like at this point I’ve taken out the engine so many times it’s like second nature 😂. Wow, that’s a good amount of miles!

It always seems to be one thing or the other. I watch so many videos where a couple jumps in there bus and travel across the country, not me, even with a new rebuild with 10,000 miles on it, there is always something acting up, which makes me nervous taking any long trips. I have to give you props for pulling your motor in the parking lot, and changing the heads and getting back on the road! Its awesome when you have a community of fellow VW enthusiasts to pull together like that to help one another. Also nice to have your dad help out. I have tow bar mounts on the front of my Vanagon, permanently mounted.Believe me, I towed with a strap way to many times, and those days are over for me. If i cant get it myself now, ill just call AAA! Once again I enjoy your chanel, and randomly pick a vid to watch, and always enjoy them! Keep up the good work, you have a awesome chanel!

[@gottasplit5707]

Yup, pretty much how it goes for me too. Something always goes wrong, but I guess that's part of the fun. Can't let a breakdown get you down. I do have to say, I've always had more confidence in my ability to fix the bus on the road than the Vanagon. AAA is a must in all these cars haha!

[@gottasplit5707]

Thank you! Definitely grateful to have friends by my side. I Wouldn't have been able to get back on the road without them. That bug sounds like an awesome project. Have fun with it, and happy travels!!!

Awesome video man!!! Love the quality of audio! Only recommendation is to try video stabilization? Other than that, I love it!

[@gottasplit5707]

Sebastian Alsina Thanks!!! l am in the market for something to stabilize my camera better, just so expensive. The camera has a stabilizer in it, but its still off. Soon l’ll get something. Thanks for the recommendation 👍

Are you in a club in Miami??

[@gottasplit5707]

More of a group of friends than an actual club. Its called Cranksquad Miami.

[@royoro1254]

I just moved back down to Miami. I’ve been searching for any groups in the air cooled scene.

[@gottasplit5707]

@@royoro1254 Awesome! There are a few clubs around here. There's one called Dirty South Dubs and they post when their meets are on insagram and facebook. Cranksquad is also having a meet / potluck on December 9th at 10 am in Tropical Park.You should definately go to that since a bunch of different clubs go.
