The definition of a good day is spending it with good friends, and pizza!!😅

[@DocSprocket]

I can't be the only one that chuckled, picturing that rotted out Beetle body perched on top of that tractor chassis...

[@coathanger51]

I have to admit... I did not.... but that is a picture... if the Barefoot Mechanic sees this he might just go for it...

[@paddyfitz71]

Great to see you back fighting fit again Diff and even better to see the Three Muskiteers on an adventure ❤❤

[@tomtruesdale6901]

Nothing finer than a road trip with some great friends, meeting new friends, getting free stuff and eating pizza. Slick way to load the Bug body, I figured you would stand it up on it's ass and back the trailer under it. Nice yard art.

[@jrehtil1494]

You three have some kind of chemistry between ya all right.

[@Shmoozo55]

Loading that VW Beetle body onto the trailer looked like a great deal of insanity crossed with a great deal of fun. Nice offspring resulted.

[@elitearbor]

It strikes me yet again how much your area of South Africa reminds me of here in Montana. The animals and plants are different, but the attitudes, the people, the delightful junk for sale... that all seems just like home to me. Great video!

[@giorgiorossetti3276]

Diff is the Gandhalf of custom built cars👍

[@kcgarrigan4324]

Starting to wonder about the sanity of South African boys. The pizza vendor is a genius.

[@coathanger51]

'ag, moenie warrie nie... we good...

[@ratrodsafrica]

Sanity is boring😅

[@alexandermancha7172]

Love that Mad Max looking rig Matte black with stitch welds Excellent for those back roads

[@Hungry_Hunter]

Free is always the best price. Great scenery.

[@larryreece1403]

"If it's Free! It's for me! Great haul!

[@ROBByJONEs-2]

you guys have a extraordinary taste in yard art.. 5 star sir...

[@robertchall8576]

Thanks for the road trip .

[@johnkranz4004]

Div Definitely a good fun Day with the boys And the pizza looked delicious and Good luck with the tractor Wayne Good new pic of Yard Art

[@albertdehn8381]

Thanks for sharing 😀👍

[@pacogil65]

Good you see you all together again scheming to turn rust to treasure..

[@paulvanhouts3365]

Hey diff, I had a TE20 years ago. I got it from a red headed cranky Irish man. The bloody thing wouldn’t start without a good dose of swearing. If I was not swearing it would just flatten a battery! One day I had saved enough to rebuild the motor, got a kit with sleeves seals, bearings etc. the cranky Irish put the cam in wrong and it would sometimes run but rough. Once rebuilt correctly, and a lot of cam rebuild and refacing, the old girl ran like a dream, no more swearing. They are easy to work on. The engine is just like what was used in old ford prefect cars, they are few and far between now. Take care.

[@ratrodsafrica]

I will tell Wayne to keep some choice swear words handy 😂

[@williamenglish4398]

Glad to see you are on the mend Diff!

[@sb18436572]

Good to see you having fun out with your friends

[@garymallard4699]

Pizza looked real yummy...🤤 🇨🇦🤓🤟

[@shedbythetracks]

Thanks for taking us along! For some reason I'm hungry for pizza now.... Cheers from the shed

[@ratrodsafrica]

Shall I send you one?😁

[@30brighter]

Thanks Div!

[@jimwhittemore1610]

Hard to pass up a freebie with a great lunch stop steps away. The VW engine cover is a good piece to have. Enjoyed tagging along

[@hoagiesherlin7732]

Good times that's what it's all about

[@martinmurphy3868]

[@kelleyhaney-cw7mk]

Dear div, please inform the bare foot mechanic that there is a 3-3/8 Big bore kit that takes the Continental z-129 from 30 HP to 40 HP. This is a sleeved engine so no machine work is needed!

[@johnnymac1580]

Next time I have some junk hauled off, I know who to call ⚡️

[@glenmiller3783]

You guys have way to much fun.

[@eziotaddeo1726]

Hey Diff, gr8 road trip, nice views of countryside, good to see u out+about, cheers, loved it

[@trollforge]

SO Wayne found an under carriage to mount the beetle body on! Awesome! Of course the rear fenders are going to require a wee bit of modification... ;)

[@ratrodsafrica]

😂

[@PeterHatch-mx7zc]

Thank you for the invertasiin

[@cliffgrimes895]

You’re going to need to add onto your shop, Diff! Enjoyed the video

[@usmc.39rat24]

Thanks for taking us out in the triple R .... that reminded me of when I picked up my bug body but we had to lift it over the front rail of the trailer to get the ramp up enough to drive it home. 😂

[@DonCatherman]

Had a blast hanging out with yall...thanks for t8us along...😎👍💯👋

[@ratrodsafrica]

Any time brother!

[@DonCatherman]

[@dragontattooee]

Perfect price Div, bound to be something useful on it. That pizza looks great

[@CarCommentator]

You have a true gift for restoration. Each video is a journey through time, and I love how you bring each item back to its former glory. Thank you for sharing your passion

[@gokuson8526]

[@ratrodsafrica]

Thank you!

[@williamfrederick3849]

So great to see you up and about that pizza looked awesome 👌 😊

[@thestreets5206]

For my fellow folks in England that pizza cost £4.20 . And the other guys said afrikaaners make a plan and wayne said as a fellow English man he doesn't have to come up with a plan he's already got one 😂😂😂

[@allenstandley1010]

Thanks for bringing me along Diff! Wayne needs a big ole set of Harley bars with mirrors to hold onto while he's riding on the boom.

[@ratrodsafrica]

😂👍

[@markburrows173]

Awesome 🙌 good luck to bare foot mechanic

[@Mustsed]

I know you do it for the trees, rust is good for the soil ;-))))

[@ratrodsafrica]

😁

[@jesusoseguera3865]

Now you need to make a 4 Door truck. Friend

[@seymourbegay2929]

just a big HELLO from da USA Navajo reservation love you work

[@ratrodsafrica]

Thanks!

[@thornwarbler]

Any excuse for a road trip. Nice one lads.

[@EarlyIronAddict427]

Buddyyyyy lol. You have a Shaker Hood on the Recovery Rig ! 👍🏻🤠 And now all you need is to build a tube chassis and you’ll have the makings of a HotRod VDub. lol 👍🏻✌🏻

[@mynameis63]

Makes me wish I was there.

[@markstack2309]

Ay Diff the beetle bug looks like it has great ventilation

[@ratrodsafrica]

😁

[@sharndupreez1]

I like content with the 3 of you!

[@user-fw9se3gn1b]

Always up for an adventure with you all…Yee-haw, rides with the brothers. Too good!

[@labrd41]

Nice score on that VW. I spy an almost perfect gas door.

[@ratrodsafrica]

😁At least there is that!

[@gazzafloss]

Div, that VW is the 'Deluxe' model that has options like 'natural' air conditioning, 'enhanced' rust patina, super low 'slammed' suspension and the 'road visibility' package. Wayne's new tractor will have 'wet sleeves' in that engine block, so it is easily rebuilt if the parts could be sourced. But that 'F' truck V8 would work nicely in the old beast that could make 'Barefoot Mechanic' chuckle big time.

[@ratrodsafrica]

😁👍

[@jamesferrell9404]

To bad the rust is so bad on that one. Love the colors on it.

[@gertandersen3609]

That bettle body on the Massey 🤔👀🤣

[@ratrodsafrica]

😂

[@mohrtechgaming1004]

Always nice to see what you are up to, thanks for sharing.

[@jjfalarka8837]

Love to see you and friends go after some rusty gold indeed. Narrow that vew body make it narrow for just one seater and put it on the tractor. Love your tow truck what fabulous work congratulations. Jack from Brasil.

[@ratrodsafrica]

That will be something!🤣

[@Stuffdexdoes]

Barefoot needs a bolt on (removable passenger mode stuff!!)motorcycle windshield and handlebars!

[@ratrodsafrica]

😁

[@TheOldaz1]

You guys have way too much fun!! Wood fired pizza? it doesn't get much better than that. Not so sure why you would even collect something that rusty, but thanks Div.

[@ratrodsafrica]

Well, at least we had some fun and pizza😁

[@peterroper7471]

Hey yeah that tractor is going to need a roof, I see someone else made the comment too

[@markrobertson9015]

Free stuff is always cool.looks like the crew is coming back The barefoot mechanic is going to get that old girl back in the field. Goldie locks that's a good name for your new planter.Take Care Div and Crew.

[@ratrodsafrica]

I wonder how long it will take him to get that thing going...

[@Doggymcdoggy664]

Good to see you rolling with the guys again Diff. Well done mate. I got a idea for Bug. Make it drive backwards down the road. You need a rear engine floor pan for body swap. Or turn a bug floor pan around. It might be original. Automatic suicide doors. 😂 Lekka Boet Lekka.

[@garymallard4699]

that seat on the back makes it look very Road Warrior style...just needs a flame thrower or harpoon ??? 😂 🇨🇦🤓✌️

[@ratrodsafrica]

We have a machine gun that we sometimes mount for car shows😅

[@garymallard4699]

@@ratrodsafrica 🤣👍

[@shanewright6958]

Thanks for the ride along 👍👍

[@DanCary-fu9vl]

You have some great pals. The best. Good to see them give you a hard time. We expect a tractor pull contender from the B-foot mechanic! Neuropathy doing better, I hope? You are in my thoughts. Dan from Oregon

[@ratrodsafrica]

Thanks, my brother!

[@williambruce5571]

It's all good man one man's junk is another man's treasure cool

[@davidmobley5984]

4x4 chassis go good under it real small one

[@davidlester6092]

👍👍👍

[@chuckster6513]

Hey Div, That was a lot of bother for an old rusty VW body. But it allowed for a good time to be had by like minded friends. I think it is wonderful you can have a roadside open air cafe in your area. To my knowledge such places are no longer allowed here in the states. Take Care, Be Well

[@philolsen4619]

Another fun day!!! 😂😂😂 I think the beetle body should go on the tractor??? 🤔🤔🤔

[@ratrodsafrica]

That would be something!

[@PeterHatch-mx7zc]

👍😁

[@nom8er]

👍

[@argee55]

I love that you take us along for the ride. The scenery is stunning.

[@kevingrunenberg5529]

Put the Volkswagen bug body on the tractor as a cab 🤔😂

[@ratrodsafrica]

😂

[@alanpaulick7815]

Good times with great friends are golden times. Another lekka road trip. Thanks boet. Take care.

[@russelblackwell6041]

Your country is beautiful Diff and that truck is awesome so much creativity when you guys get together big trouble happy jack is a character. imagine how good the pizza would taste nice little take out there pizza and a laugh with your mate's great therapy Diff, the simple things in life often the best still a few good bits on the old VW keep at it Diff

[@oscarwalton1188]

Between the baja bug and that you might have most of a beetle 😊

[@ratrodsafrica]

Neither one has floor pans and running gear🥲

[@gacattack1234]

Too far gone, but its curves may come in handy.

[@Stuffdexdoes]

Bugs should be racing!

[@ratrodsafrica]

Maybe not this one...😁

[@jerrynickell3613]

I'm with you, Diff - any chance to get some VW "stuff," it's a win. Unfortunately, my wife doesn't quite agree with me! She says I can't have any more cars or trucks until I do something with the ones I have. So I'd better get busy...! Thanks for your channel and for letting us go along on this ride.

[@todstrucks2919]

I love free. It’s my second favorite F word!🥴

[@ratrodsafrica]

🤣 I'm with you!

[@dannypeter6565]

Good food, good friends, good fun equals a great day. Hooray for free stuff(not junk) cheers

[@JimmyMakingitwork]

The Pizza looked much better than the poor little bug, haha. You've got your work cut out for you on this one, maybe some good parts though. Looks like a great day!

[@ratrodsafrica]

Just pieces and parts, if ever...😅

[@scole901]

6 bucks for a nice pizza not bad

[@tonic8945]

Glad to see you out and about man, I just got back from a reunion with four friends from Cape Town that I hadn't seen for 30 years or more, driving from Kent to Wales and back, more than 5 hours each way and it was worth it mate 48 hours of skinner en lag en rook en lag en suip en lag en vreet en lag and I feel there's nothing better than a day spent with your best friends ❤

[@ratrodsafrica]

Good stuff man!😀

[@sufferedenuf]

Whatever makes you happy, it just depends on you....

[@ratrodsafrica]

Someone watched to the very end!😁👍

[@jessehermosillo8116]

TOTALLY AWESOME, great friends, great pizza, great day with rat rodders ,great video stay safe,jesse

[@ratrodsafrica]

Thanks 👍

[@ttersu]

Why not trying to marry your brand old Beatle rusty shell with your tractor frame? :)

[@ratrodsafrica]

😅

[@user-vq4gk4hx8p]

Food for thought i suppose, im sure you'll do something with the old VW

[@DonCatherman]
