The Convertible is so lovely. If it was mine, i would be out driving it every day! I like the EV interior very much - quite unusual, but very smart looking. Gosh! - a camber compensator! I havent seen one of those for many years! How cool!

On the 40hp big bore rebuild what is the approximate cost and do you have the information on the builder. Thank you

Cute little 61. Love the while walls 😊 the red interior works too 👍🏻 why were the door handles in the EV bug left black instead of made Vent operation on tye DC looks so smooth. CU tomorrow 😁👋🏻

I had a quick convertible question, do you know what year did they stop putting the Circle metal air grommet’s behind the front Seats upholstery in convertibles , i was told they were for moister relief ,

Awesome , dig it when u have a update on convertible ,

The double-cab dash really looks good. The radio aperture cover looks just the right shape! Good work by Jacob! I really love that '63 ragtop!

I‘m an ICE guy as you know, but that EV bug would be a blast to drive around town for errands and stuff. I’d drive it proudly 👍🏻 ok, so I’ll be honest, the wiring on the DC doesn’t look any diffent than it did before 😂 🤷🏼 the glove box would look good with a small chrome spear across the front with the small vw badge in the center. The red Manx is ❤ Red is my favorite color and that candy metal flake is wow. CU tomorrow! 😁👋🏻

Flake on the buggy looks a half inch thick!

Genuine recaro leather seats and interior?! Damn, my old '70 was stinky plastic fantastic and perhaps a bit of moldy stank from constant minor leaks. Well done!

Now that’s RED ‼️Great paint job. Porsche lookin good. Did you bang out a dent on the engine hood ? Lower left side… those carburetors are bitchin….. thanks, Rick….. 🌴

I think we have another case of "better than new" here! Miguel has done an incredible job with the Manx paintwork. What a bonus finding the matched ports! That's 2 cars today that started off a nice colour and had colour blind owners to repaint them!! Go enjoy the rest of your weekend now!

Miguel aint no flake his real deal !!! Great job on all your cars

Oooohhhh myyyyyyy gooooood! ❤😮 what an absolutely killer paint finish. That’ll probably be the nicest Manx buggy in California. Wow, C’mon Brian, get it done! 😂😂😂😂 you better be doing a ride in it for us 🫵🏻 Have Jacob go with you to film the buggy while you drive! Dress up like an old surfer for a Halloween gag 😂

kind of like a tri coat minus the base. the pearl coat ( flakes) uses a mid coat and flake (midcoat clear ) then cleared its awesome old speed boats are done the same

That red is Gorgeous!!! Can't figure out why they repainted in that Awful Banana color.... musta been color blind!!! Glad you decided to to work on Saturday.....BONUS!!

👍

Keep up great work

So many projects at once. It’s good that they’re all VW’s. Wiring was never my favorite thing, but a necessary evil. Great job on all the cars. Thanks, Rick….. 🌴 Enjoy the weekend !

Good progress by Jacob. It will be nice to see that motor all restored and shiny, soon. Have a great weekend!

I’m not too sure but I don’t think that’s the correct fan shroud for a 40 horse on that 63. That indentation I think is for a later PICT 34 carb. Again, I’m not one hundred percent on that. Are you guys going to try to find the correct turquoise colored cargo/fromt mats for that 64? That should be fun.😜

Which crimping tool/system do you use when you shorten your wires? Really appreciate how you clean up the wires.

Nice customization.

Do you always move the fuel filter away from the engine area when doing a restoration?

So, the owner of the new project car is a Porsche technician. And coincidentally you recently acquired a Porsche. Hmmmm, I see a pattern forming. Love the 63 rag top. And the wide white walls are very familiar to me, and funky. Great work, thanks. Rick….. 🌴

You do some beautiful work on these vehicles. Amazing!

The ev hardware is such a neat install. Learn something new every day - the spacer for the rear pop-out - who knew! Cabrio wheel / tyre combo is lovely! Spaghetti wiring! It's the little details like shortening a few wires that make your work stand out! The new ragtop - What a wonderful looking car! It will be great to follow how that turns out! Great day at the shop!

Great work and great cars! If I lived in America, I would probably ask you to work on my bus.

Curiosity, the knob to the right of the ashtray is that a 6 volt cigarette lighter? Was that an option? My 64 does not have that option.

I remember a few Bugs back you installed a tachometer that closely matched the speedo in the leftmost portion of dash. That might be a nice fix for the '63.

On the bus pop out the bracket for it is so you can have a none pop out there for Certain style buses not all buses have pop outs in the same location The ones that are formed in is usually where a popout goes so its not sticking out .

Aye I know that black car! And the owner! SUBSCRIBED!

WW look cool on the little 61 vert 😎 Just a bit of spaghetti but you do a great job getting it right with even wire length. Waaaaaaaaat??? A rag top! Yea man 👍🏻 looks like that should polish out well given the overall, you’re right. You should show Robert doing some polishing work 😃 oooohhhh the ox blood interior will look killer in that black car! CU Tomorrow 👋🏻😁

Is it Wicked Wednesday already?! Where’s the time go 😁 I think you guys are dreading tackling those skylight windows. I always liked the window bars 👍🏻 gonna be a pretty dramatic change with the carpet in the bus. Ooooohhhh WW tires 😁 ❤ the tan dash rail and the stitching main dash looks almost AUDI which is A-ok 👌🏻 DC is gonna be epic 👊🏻 Octavio does such pristine work 👍🏻 this was a really great episode 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Great work, I enjoy watching your content! I do have a question. What color green is that on the double cab?

The color combo dash on the DC is perfect, and the stitching looks at home. At my age, my eye starts to twitch when you show the EV, I guess I have gasoline in my blood. Octavio is an artist. Thanks, Rick….. 🌴

Double cab dash (test) fit has made a world of difference - it looks really smart. The stitching is very cool, but i take your point about only fitting into a custom truck, not a full resto. You are lucky to have Octavio close by - such incredible, detailed quality in the interiors by him and team!

It's all great vws every time! I love two samba buses😍 My split bus was also delivered the other day, but the brake fluid leaked and I'm going to send it for repair right away😂

Keep up the awesome work! 😎🫵🏾

That fender looks like sepia brown now, the car looks burgundy in some frames, still cool though and you have Weber’s,awesome 👌🏻😎

Those bay windows again! Uuhhhhhgghhh 😂 lots a fiddly stuff under the dash 🤷🏼 that poor UD is more 💩 brown 😁 looks better though. Does that motor turn over at all, any compression?

Those buses are a pain in the bus. Several life times ago, I had a 61 356. I could never afford another Porsche again, plus I had a family to transport around. That 911 could be my dream project car, so take your time with her, she deserves it. You are very lucky that the fender lined up so well ! Thanks, Rick….. 🌴

You should checkout the Rudy Klein Porsche and other cars auction on 26 October, they might have some parts for your Porsche.

Oh no - not skylight fitting issues again! What a pain for you! I like the slightly downbeat look of the Porsche - great panel fit, though, regardless of the colour shade!

Wondering if you and Todd considered pulling the engine as the first step, as opposed to pulling the carbs. Limited shop space maybe?

I heard somewhere that the front skylight window are slightly shaped different than the other three.

Bus is looking amazing

I could just imagine that ugly duckling the way its gonna come out , 🤌🏽😎🫵🏾

Please change those rear bumper guards for chrome ones and delete the front ones, a bit more hot rod then and a dual tip muffler,👌🏻😎

👍

Very lucky that there appears to be almost no damage to the structure despite the mangled front fender. Also - a big win to find the adjustable sway bars!
