Jack I'm an old granny 82 years old and I really enjoy watching your videos. I can tell you and your little brother are being raised with dry loving parents as you both are well mannered and show love to each other. Thank you all for sharing your videos. Big hug to you all, granny

I’m am 84 year old grandad and this is the best comment I’ve ever seen

I’m not an 84 or 82 year old grandad or grandma I’m an existing human being. I just exist 😀

Jack you KNOW that you can weld some metal to the floor. You can make a masterpiece out of it if you try! Paint it blue!

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!

[@Deborah-s6t6m]

I love you guys....A boy and his Dad....working together on old car projects...

[@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.

[@virginiacarr1719]

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

[@lindakinsey1093]

That was fun. Sorry about the battery. Give the engine to one that doesn’t need so much work.

[@KenG557]

Kent, you're just a big kid! 😂👍👍

[@samuelschult985]

That was awesome and you guy's took me down memory lane I use to own a 76 Super Bettle. Great project car 👍

[@sandyburkett1824]

I was laughing so hard!! “I lost the battery Jack!” Awesome. BEST VIDEO YET💙

[@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.

[@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.

[@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.

[@vehiclenanny]

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!!

[@rustyp5810]

What a father ,son team..I love watching Jack do the impossible..

[@edralphy]

Thanks for the belly laugh!!!! Good times! ❤😂

[@anthonyembry6953]

I think thats awesome! Great memories with your dad. Learning a bunch and good laughs.😂

[@GardeningWithKyle]

so proud of you jack you're so smart keep up the aamazing work!

[@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 !!! )

[@CowboyShortY4]

Great meeting you at the Okie last week

[@dizzle123able]

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

[@kimlee5811]

My daughter has a 69 VW that she is restoring. I am so impressed with you, keep up the good work.

[@paulharless668]

I love how you can just work on them cars! Keep on doing what you’re doing and have a great day.

[@mynameisearl598]

its a volkswagon ti will run again

[@kimgower1347]

I have So Many memories of the 70's era VW bugs! Learned to drive in one, the neighbors had one too. Many Adventures and mis adventures too.

[@ANONYMOUS_OFFICER]

This is inspirational

[@alokbalsekar]

Now that's a boy being raised right. Skills being passed down from father to son. Circle of life

[@GA-FL-pirate]

The body panels look to be in decent shape, doors look surprisingly good. Floor pans aren't over expensive, that's a plus.

[@vitalitydoesstuff3603]

This kid makes me realize that a simple life can be the happiest life. I see more joy in his eyes fixing cars than I see in most people’s eyes each year.

If she was originally orange that’s probably a special serie’s named jeans and that’s would be pretty cool

Put the motor in a better body you made a good trade Jack

[@Terry-JoWhitehead]

So awesome to see you working with your Dad and the confidence you have in your skills! Great trade and now all you need a body for the engine and transmission! I know that with your skill set you can build the floor and brackets/seats! Looking forward to see more Dad/Son work!

Bug could turn into a great project. I'm looking at the Chevy truck in the background, though. Glad you kids are learning some awesome skills

[@grannygoes]

Yes, the 71-72s had a factory sun roof. I can’t wait to see this one finished! Go Jack, Go!

No offense but when I first saw your videos I thought you were like 9.

[@MrMolova]

What a tremendous success getting that thing going as you did. Gotta say, screw the mule, use this thing for the chores!

[@kennithsebert7779]

I would pull that motor out and put it into another bug. I love your videos. I watched them all the time here in Pennsylvania. Be safe at all times and God bless to all of you's Ken from Pennsylvania.

[@crystalkarlson5491]

I'm proud that Jack knows who the Flintstones are! 😂

Definitely made a good trade little buddy

I have a 1973 bug, it’s my first car and it’s fully restored. I’m 18 now and I still use this car to this day, now it’s more of a nice day car. But if you restore one you’ll learn to love it

[@2001pontiacta]

This kids awesome! Love these video’s! Very cool you’re lucky enough that your dad not only had a junk yard but, supports you n that is how memories are made! Paint the big like Herbie! Paint a 53 on it!

Slightly dangerous 😂😂😂, love your content guy's, great stuff ❤❤❤

[@JGDeRuvo]

Great job! Paint it like The Love Bug Jack!

[@unclemarksdiyauto]

Factory sunroof! You should do the pans on it. Is the rear of the body very bad? I guess it could always be a project for the channel when you have everything done to the ranchero. Is that a 1968 or 69?

[@carolmiland9665]

I'm sorry Jack I can't stop laughing. Every time you open a door.or.hood you find.aomething new..hahaha

Jack makes it look easy for us adults out here. I hope when he gets to high school that they have an auto mechanics vocational ed.course for the students---he's sure to get straight A"s !!!

[@Snacks8536]

Let’s guess the amount of hours of welding that bug needs 😂😂

[@carolmiland9665]

You got some work to so on this bug Jack. Maybe put some bike petals.all on it..haha. It'll be fun he says. Love you all ❤

[@deanvinlove6095]

Hilarious! Loosing the battery!! Lmao!! I’ve had a few VW’s loved working on them, though I’ve never had one in that bad condition! Lol

I love to see jack someday proud of him❤❤❤

[@carolineloeser3071]

That was a great video. I laughed so hard. The Volkswagen beetle is my favorite car to drive. I've owned at least 3. Thank you for sharing 😊

[@kbschulze]

Never seen you replace floor pans. Bugs have an abundance of cheap after market parts. Redo the whole thing. Would be a great experience and fun to see.

[@redwinstead7873]

You have two great kids that are going to be in the world of cars ❤❤❤❤

[@mattcartwright9141]

Genuinely made me cry with joy when the engine fired up and then your dad drove it round the yard... 🥲

[@msconniel1]

What fun... Love it.

[@milmil6594]

My thoughts are any VW bug is worth the project..And added bonus is those large old oil cans..I see them at antique markets selling for pretty good money

[@robertwaldrop4457]

He's going to be one heck of a mechanic keep up the great work

[@dugel3]

I wish I could give this video more than just one like! It's awesome that you got the bug running. I absolutely burst out laughing when Jack popped the hood and it was full of pack rat debris and Kent said he and AJ were going to play with the RC car. And then I just about completely lost it when you were whooping and hollering and the battery came falling out! Not sure if it would be worth the effort to replace the floor pans and stuff in it or if it would be better as a donor car for some of your other bugs. Whatever you decide to do with it, you at least got a cheap project car & some really fun video content

[@ilenemarsh7654]

You r awesome Jack. Love watching you and your dad playing in cars you get running. Keep having fun. DAD I SAY YOU R A GREAT Dad.

[@fxp0]

Just the fun was worth the merch, Jack :-)

[@ScottL528]

Hahahaha! This one goes on the blooper reel! I love it! 😂😂

I think she's mint Jack even if you have to squint lol. I'd forsure drive her but then again I'll drive anything. The battery deleted was golden 😂😂❤❤

This is one of the best videos guys...yeah out that running gear and motor in another bug...seems to go great.

[@ericflowers2146]

Dang it jack .. 😂😂😂😂 battery didn't like that 😂😂😂😂

[@milmil6594]

I remember when the sun roof first came out..a great option until Automakers as well as owners soon found out they leak..The fix came when Auto makers decided to engineer them with a drip pan underneath the sun roof with a hose connection and they ran the hose through the C pillar and out through the trunk..draining any leakage..problem solved..I don't remember when that change was made..I believe it was first used in Japanese made cars then other automakers followed

[@adamrice617]

You, young man, are a little legend! Greetings from the UK 😊

[@DeanRhyne]

HEY YOUNG MAN THAT BUG IS NOT THAT BAD , I HAVE SEEN SOME ROTTEN CARS AN THAT ONE IS NOT THAT BAD. GREAT JOB TO YOUR DAD , BROTHER AN YOU

[@IowaTower]

Those old bugs, you could jack one rear wheel in the air, put the tranny in 2nd (pretty sure it's 2nd, maybe 3rd), then spin the wheel by hand to start it.

[@cheryladams7945]

If more boys had a father like Kent there would be more boys like Jack. Jack are you sure this car is worth your time,? Looks like a lost cause to me ,😅 i used to watch my dad and husband work on motors. They could take an engine apart and put it back together in one afternoon. I learned about the parts but I could never do the work. It's fascinating to watch.😅

[@charlesmoore2485]

These little cars are what got me into cars at a young age. I hope u name him Herbie !

Maybe you should make an offer on the square body. Can't wait to see you fab a floor pan.. pull that motor may be smart..
