Keep going on. You doing good. Good Luck from Germany.

Keep up the good work,it's looking good

The Motivation is a struggle, but we all know in the end the work is worth it. The Finish product is going to be AWESOME.

Can't wait to see this thing come together!!

I’ll be dropping these videos every couple days from now until I’m caught up ! Get subscribed !!

the Evaresto shocks for the 1303s are sweet! what im gonna get for mine! they are smaller then the standard so you can run nice wide wheels and slam the car if needs be!

I think that's marathon blue. It's a color used on Sports bugs. My car is marina blue. I would share a pic if I knew how

Glad to see see you.. i want to see it get done..

20 minutes of rambling and I'm ou

Missed ya Bud! Good to see you back on and going!

Good to see you back at it 💪

Sorry for the delay guys but im back on schedule and ive been filming all summer long!!!

For the doors, you have to jack up under the B pillar and make sure the door aligns well before final welding to the heater channel. Live and learn.

Hey remember that time you said your car was coming to GermanAire no matter what hahahahahahahaha WRONG!!!! lol chirp season

I'm in the UK and trying to do all the work myself full restoration on my 1303 1972

Ugh. My pans bad where the battery sits.

My great deal has run me a few grand already. Don’t have my motor yet!

My 2 year old grandson love my blue beetle. I had to get him a beetle toy too.

I get those goals. I’ve set them myself. I love how fearless you are tackling anything this bug throws at you.

I’m doing a ‘73 super. It’s a California bug so very little rust! No motor yet! The trade offs.

I'm 100% on board!!

Will there be a new video?

You should probably wear some breathing protection LOL?

hey man want to talk?

I love the Super Beetles in 73-74 ... only curved windshields... improved fresh air system w/2-speed blower... bigger trump by a lot... 1974 added the heavy 5 mph bumpers (Extra weight and cost), but in the unlikely event of an impact.... Retractable shoulder belts... ...VW still couldn't deal with the cheap, Japanese imports with the Deutschmark / Dollar / Yen advantage the Japanese had... and liquid cooling.

Did they finish this project? Working on my own 74 super restore

I enjoyed watching this a lot my dad has a 1974 Volkswagen Super Beetle no engine that I wish we could restore but we’re trying to sell I hope to see it sold and on the road again someday

Oh man this is what I'm about to get into. Can I hire your dad?

Hey Mike i look every couple days for your next video. Show me the Money!!

Well, a new sub to you. Cause I’m curious. Being in the start of a project myself I “binge watched” this series in about 3 days. So I was fishing for a few good tips of ideas in the videos.

Yes. The sand will always be there. That’s +1 for chemical dipping.

Been waiting for the update

The Klokkerholm firewall for this year range matches this car better. CIP1 carries this one as well.

Love the videos, I too am having the same issues with my Super Beetle project!

Looks sick!

Amazing i bought also this weekend a vw bug from 74"

Yeah number #1!! What color are you painting the body? You're progress is amazing brother!

No comments? Gotta leave something for the algorithm. As always, love the content. You're definitely gonna make the show.

I love all the work you are doing to the Beetle. Definitely a rewarding job!

I have a problem with my super beetle I cut the heater Chanel’s with out bracing the body 😢

You learn as You go. Best way to remove doors is to knock the hinge pins out. If the doors are aligned correctly, you don’t want to mess with the hinge mounts.

Nice to meet You Mike , this just popped up and I subscribed. Been into these old bugs almost 50 years, and currently getting close to finishing up My 69 vert. project. To do a respectable job, I think Your deadline is flat out undoable, not just think , I know it’s not. You cannot put a deadline , especially that short, on such a project. Take Your time and make the trip next year, maybe I’ll tag along. 👍👍🇺🇸

If you don't reach 10,000 subscribers Mike are you still going to give it away ?

You also have the early '73 seat tracks

Actually, you can get the number off the pan as well. Right there by the hole you were vacuuming in

Can you confirm the VIN? Don't give the entire number, just make sure the 3rd number is a "4". I only ask that because while watching the intro, I noticed the front fender are not from a '74 ('74 should have D shaped holes...at least in the States. Canada may not have had shock absorber bumper brackets)

ok

Good luck Mike. I hope you make your goal. I plan on being at the show also. It would be cool to run into you and dad and say hello.. I’ll be looking for your car. Buster’s travels from Pennsylvania USA.

I really hope you make a mark of the rear spring plate position before disassembly. The spring bar have 40 groove inside and 44 outside and allow 3mm of heigh setting. If you didn't do it, be prepare to assemble AND disassemble a lot of time to find the right position. An other thing, springbar have a direction, left goes to the left and right goes... If you change it, they'll work in the wrong direction and you'll have the rear who will go down and too low in no time.

Your getting mechanical work the last few bug reworking days, instead of body work. That's different. I wonder If the suspension rear bearings can just get washed and used again. Some old things are built better than new. Don't listen to me. lol I heard you mention the number of video's so far on the body work. You've been busy!
