HUGE Abandoned Volkswagen Collection Found after 40 YEARS!! | 1960 VW Beetle | Turnin Rust

[@georgemyers6518]

For what you bought those vw’s for,a person could and would take a huge interest in those cars. That was absolutely awesome of you to give the old boy more than he asked for the vw’s.you’re definitely a class act and a very good person

[@kwakuappiah5784]

That is cool and awesome 👌

[@raymondmumford6255]

Lance, I’m not a religious person in anyway, I love your genuine kindness, your respectful ways, and your good nature. Your videos are so well done, entertaining and full of heartfelt stories, love your interest in the unusual. Hopefully we will get to see lots more of the Thing.

[@tracyrenfro8619]

Wow, a blast from the past! The family car when I was a child was a green Maverick in the mid/late 70's....then I seem to recall a Grenada. The things you remember huh 😂

[@michaelcagle5938]

That's the same family cars we had. A Cinnamon red '70 Maverick and then a Silver '78 Granada.

[@faithbuilder1320]

Never seen a Christian make videos on restoring cars & such. This video was so peaceful & also had so much energy in it. I guess righteousness, peace & joy in the Holy Spirit. That's the kingdom of God. So true. I'm from India & I've heard a lot about the southern Bible belt. I think you guys are amazing. Like the nice gentleman said - stay blessed. GB

This is my kind of show handy guys who are not afraid to get their hands dirty. Interesting old cars. Who does not love vw. Had a 64 i. I drove it all night thru the terrible 43 inch Chicago storm of 1967. Only other car I saw moving that night was another bug that passed me.

[@marknelson5929]

Great rescue, well done guys. All the best from a VW Beetle enthusiast in Australia. Talking of which I saw a superb black 'oval window' Beetle parked outside a house today - stunning condition it was.

[@juliansw3110]

Indeed, an oval/split window bug with shiny black paint, sparkling chrome and white walls is one of the coolest things you'll see on the road.

[@peterduxbury927]

Just imagine the good condition that the VW's were in when they were 'dumped' there 40 years ago. I bought a '71 from a Car Scrapyard as a burnt-out wreck (Engine Fire). I spent a year and $14K to bring it "back from the dead". That was 15 years ago. Beetles (the most iconic vehicle on earth) grow on you. Today, my Beetle is part of the family. Looks brand new - and has been kept original - other than the Wedgewood Blue and Gray Leather Seats. Many of your viewers are like me, a lifelong love affair with a car? Sounds ridiculous but true. You guys do a great job. If you feel that these pair of Beetles are beyond Economic Repair, pass them on...... There are many people out there that love the challenge to restore, and turn that rust - into gold!! Greetings from Australia.

[@gaddmeister]

With the Beetles it's a case of welding in support braces for the body to keep its shape, unbolting what is left of the body and separating the body from the floor. Two new floor pans and two heater channels replaced in th body. Floors are easy to do and the cars appear to be solid. Well worth the bargain $750. I've restored many beetles and buses in my younger years. Great find!

[@mpalmer7800]

Its very emotional since I just lost my awesome dad. Can hear his love for his dad in his voice

[@davidryan573]

It’s really neat to see you and your Dad keeping your sense of humor, looks like it was a tough couple of days. I agree it was a great find, my Brother has a Thing and loves it, thanks for digging them out and giving them a shot at life, great video !

[@chrishaan5766]

Shorten the chain A LOT Pulling the short chain with your truck will take weight off the front end of the thing by lifting it as you pull and keep it right behind the truck You won’t hurt your backs Is that an AC unit on the thing Mine doesn’t have anything like that not even the heater looks like that

[@2centscommon]

I just discovered this youtube channel today. I've already watched 3 videos. Its raw, real & not over produced. I love what you guys are doing with these vehicles. I wish I was capable of doing this sort of thing. I'd love to repair & save old cars, but I just don't know enough about it. In fact I know nothing about mechanics or car value (except I know all those VW's are worth way more than $750). But these kind of videos make me want to go to mechanic school even though I'm in my 40's. Oh yeah it was pretty cool that you gave the guy an extra $250 cause he obviously had no idea what those VW's can be worth.

[@MUN.A1988]

Tery you're absilutely have the right to say that. I am in62 and I've said that before..really if you can go to a mechanical shop, don't be late..it just one year or less then you can do your soecial shop to practise your hoppy since you still in 42years old.

Hello guys, I am from Austria an i love to watch our channel. You found a VW in German is called "Kübelwagen", it's very popular but very rare in europe.

[@gaddmeister]

The 'Thing' is not a kublewagen, similar but came out years later as a vehicle for the modern German Whermacht in the 70's. The kublewagen type 82 used a beetle platform, however, the Thing type 181 used the wider Karman Ghia floor pan.

[@friedasophiebecht687]

Its easier to calle it Kübelwagen because the thing hasn't another name.

[@davidjose9808]

Steven Gadd ...interesting clarification...appreciate that info

[@mojoro23]

You could make a real cool video series with all those bugs. Get a group of rebuild garages, each garage gets a VW, and they have a Bug Off rebuild!

[@manstersr]

Glad to see you guys saving those old VWs. I have a 61 rag top sunroof in my backyard, plan to restore it one day. All yours needs is every panel replaced, swap the transaxle with a 67 type 3 with the long axle tubes and wide drum brakes, convert it to 12v, build a nice 2200cc or bigger engine and redo the interior and soft top and you'll have a nice little car with no A/C. It's easier to pull it from the front on the old bugs, the front axle isn't way up under there like the rear axle.

[@tony66au]

Nice find! All the bits you need including floor pans and sections are available and not as expensive as youd think. My old 1300 67 Beetle (Named DakDak coz thats the sound she made) was close to as bad as the floorless wonder and after a pressure wash and molasses bath n disassembly she stick welded right up as good as new.

[@sallyswift5343]

Back in the days my husband had volkys, and I had a red and white maverick, I'm talking about when we were in our 20s.

[@LynxStarAuto]

paulg really doubt they paid 750.00 for the lot. Think that was just shock value for the video.

[@andymonroe6136]

They agreed on $750. But I believe he said "there's a little extra, there's $1000". The effort it took to remove these cars and the willingness of the gentleman to sell to them, seems like a good deal for both parties.👌

[@publicclammer]

My wonderful Dad bought me a brand new '62 VW Beetle in 1962 in Greenville Mississippi. He wrote a check for the total $1,829.00. It was a wonderful little car. He was a prince among men and a true gentleman. His generation astounds me to this day for their generosity and intelligence.

[@junkman7426]

I just finished body repair on my bug and am in the process of running the wiring and replacing all the rubber and interior. Looks like that '60? you got has severally rotted heater channels also. That's basically a structural rocker and it's pretty common that they rust out unfortunately. It's a big job. I love VWs, but this one will have to find someone with LOTS of free time to fix it all up I think. Don't feel bad if it continues to just be a yard ornament. The deck lid might be worth some money for someone that needs one.

[@dougcarpsmashernymeyer9698]

[@woodandwheelz]

The VW thing was my all time favorite car when I was back in high shcool. A friend of mine had a bright orange one. Lance mentions that it has a military look to it. It was actually called the Volkswagen 181. The concept for the 181 came from the Type 82 Kübelwagen (an abbreviation of the German “Kübelsitzwagen,” meaning “bucket-seat car) and the also Type 166 Schwimmwagen (literally meaning swimming car or amphibious car), a German military vehicle used during World War II. The Type 181 was also sold to the public, as the Kurierwagen (“courier car”) in West Germany, the Trekker (RHD Type 182) in the United Kingdom, the Thing in the United States (1973-74), the Safari in Mexico and South America, and Pescaccia in Italy. I build custom Hot Wheels size cars and dioramas, I'm going to do one of this VW Thing and the other bugs. Thank you for sharing. Take care and God bless. JESUS JESUS JESUS Till the Day I Die. Amen Brother.

Ha, at first, when you said “yanks” I was almost incredulous thinking there’s no way someone would mistake them for northerners. Then I realized you’re from AU, which makes much more sense in the context of the word.

Lance and Wyatt, ,We really enjoy your website. Saving those old vehicles and getting them running again is a work of art! Hopefully the lawsuit will be in the past! Hang in there guys! Larry and Allan Orofino, Idaho.

I can't believe you got 750 for all of those. what a deal!

But he actually gave him a grand which was awesome too.

The buyer probably got a better deal for taking all of them. I think the seller would have charged more than $750 if he had only bought The Thing. He wanted them gone.

The tree work was more expensive than the cars and has to be added in. On the other hand, the way they focused in on the name and phone number on the truck may have resulted in a deal.

1988 Orlando - at a tire store the owner said he put new tires on an orange Thing for $170 and the owner couldn't pay, so I could have it for the $170 (but no title) running with the key.
