Little bug is in great shape! I'd love to have it as a daily driver! Little cosmetic repairs, and a carb kit, likely a dry air cleaner kit, and cleaning up the wiring (Every VW I've dealt with has had a mess for wiring). Always wanted to own a Beatle, but never got the chance, and now, it's likely I'd never be able to afford one in good running condition, sadly. Helped work on a couple, back in the 1980's, in Germany. GI owned, German spec. models. Early 1970's models, I believe. Factory wiring looked like they just tossed a couple rolls of wire at it and let it sort itself out. That was usually the first thing we worked on. And usually took the longest to make look right and work right. Had to completely re-wire one of them, using a factory wiring diagram, that we had to get translated from German to English. Guy that owned the car gave it to the new owner when he sold it. That one had the clutch in the stick, instead of the floor. Think they called it the AutoStick? Strangest transmission I ever dealt with.

I was thinking a bridge with only one lane open for traffic going both ways so you may have had to sit and wait to go across or if you got stuck (I didn't think you would) that traffic in both directions would be held up. So glad you got it back without any real issues, now off to watch part two.

The taillights tell me it's at least a 1973. On the older cars part of the numbers on the taillight tell you what year it is (old trick). But that would be a "Super Beatle" meaning it has a McPherson Strut front end. I've had many VW bugs, mostly between 1965 and 1969 w/torsion bar front suspension. Used to make baja bugs out of them and they were great off road and in the snow. Fun little cars, good gas mileage too around 30 mpg. You're lucky cars are pretty rust free for the most part in your neck of the woods, unlike where I live. The wiring can be a project all in itself, but you know that from your other bug. lol Great video.

If it will run like that, but not idle, check the idle fuel cut off solenoid. There’s a small Dashpot screwed into the side of the carburetor that has two electrical wires going to it. This is to keep the engine from running on i.e. dieseling after the ignition is shut off. Take the two wires off the dash pot and unscrew it from the side of the carburetor you’ll see a little plunger. Hook the wires back up and turn the ignition on. When 12 V is applied to it the plunger should retract opening up the idle fuel circuit. If the plunger does not retract when 12 V is applied to it, or you do not have 12 V there with the key on, the car will not idle. Sometimes you can shoot some WD-40 in them and free them up if they are just stuck, or if you are in a jam, and the plunger does not retract when 12 V is applied you can take a pair of needle, nose, pliers, and snap the plunger end off, and screw the Dashpot back in the Carburetor to plug the hole, and it will idle just fine. The only problem you have is, you will have no ideal, cut off circuit i.e. run on/dieseling protection..

I think that those are not the og seats. I had a 1974 VW Bug years ago and it was totally original when I got it. There should be a little lever at the very front of the seat that you can release and the whole seat will just slide out you don't even need any tools to remove the seats if they are og VW seats. It looks like it also has a quite pack exhaust on it. Mine had a quite pack/header on it but I took the muffler off and ran a stinger with the baffle out. It was just a stock 1600 but it sounded like it was a "hot rod" lol. The thing that I really liked about it was if I had had a bad day at work when I got into the Bug all of the bad stuff from work just went away and life was good. Wish I had never got rid of it. I and it fixed up in what's known as The California Look.

I was crammed into the backseat amongst boxes and boxes of meat. After a bit, I realized that the funny looking piece of meat on the top of the box next to me was the tongue from the cow!
