Canadian Ute
Канада
Добавлен 23 дек 2015
Inexpensive, small pickup trucks used to be everywhere in North America. Datsuns,Toyotas, the Subaru Brat or even the 80’s Volkswagen Caddy based on the Golf, have all pretty much all disappeared. But if you're willing to pick up some tools to build your own (or have someone do a full-build or installation for you) you can now bringing the Caddy back with the Smyth Performance Truck Kit for the MKIV VW Jetta and Golf.
turn your VW Jetta or Golf into a VW Ute in your driveway in a weekend!

would you do this to a Ford Escort sedan for me if i pay?
How much would it cost to have someone do this for me?
Seems like over kill for what you need to do to make it a Ute but as long as you go fast I will watch it
Dnd se encuuentra este jenio me interesa
Do you think removing that amount aluminum from the speakers will damage the structural integrity? I am about to do my smyth kit soon as well. Just wondering how you feel about it 4 years later.
I need this, Canadians are awesome and blessed, might pick up the audi a4 in near future as a project
today, i was 26 years old when i discovered jethro tull
I love how he used the word "ute" as if hes in Australia
planning to do this in a few months, so happy i found this. Thank you!
Sail235ah Also did a very nice detailed build
Hey I just want to say great video but now I want to know where I can purchase all this parts please can u get me the name of the company who sells this product please and thank you
So what happens to most of the wiring?? Rear door wiring for example...
It's not needed ,take a rosstech and recode it so it thinks it's a 2 door car ,that's what I did. You can repurpose some of the other wiring , use the rear window defrost circuit to power up some bed lights or whatever for example.
So you can just cap them off also and not use them??
@@elfarach yeah you can do that, i ended up running the wiring thru the rear door pillars and curve around to underneath the bed. Trying to eliminate a water leak by capillary action down the harness where the kit normally routes the wiring. I just capped off what I didn't use ,there could be reasons you might want the extra ones to wire in future items after it's built that you forgot 😄
Wish they made a kit for the 1997 lumina id buy it
Would have been easier with a kombi Jetta/Bora lol
As lanternas são da picape Dacia Logan?
It says right on the screen, you did the mod in 29 min. I guess with some practice you get much better.
Lmfao a weekend? Yeah right
Lol been at mine for over a year,doing alot of improvements and upgrades to help longevity
Still at of ,but this spring it'll be roadworthy. So it took a little over 3yrs so far, but I spent 4-5mo going thru the car.
This thing should be called a Jetta Rivet. lol
Did he really do this in a weekend???
Maybe after doing 5-10 of em first 😛
Do they have the kit for the 3 series? I've got one in the driveway that runs like a champ, but leaks and needs struts. Was about to sell it for 500 bucks to some kid. This looks interesting
Plug 🔌 and play ▶ that music 🎶 gives me so much of energy
:O
Ficou chave
Podre
Price of kit?for Brazil
Did Hestermann Motorwerks give you expressed permission to use their video in this way?
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 tener que hase con una Mercedes Benz. 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻💪🏽
Does anyone know if it would require more or less work to do this to a 2 door mk4 golf?
Bless you brother, for using Jethro Tull as your background music. Brilliant.
The rear of the truck is spot on, how it should be. The Beetle ute conversion tries to use the rear arches and whilst I love Beetles, it looks shocking. If the Beetle conversion used this kit, now I would be interested.
The dogs bollocks awesome mate
Taking ugly cars and making ugly Ute's, hopefully will not catch on
looks like the tail lights are from a Ford Explorer Sport Trax
Me encanto la transformación del Jetta a camioneta ojalá también dieran información en español. Gracias
It's a nice finished object and would give pleasure to know you have built one ,.!. You can buy one straight from the VW group, it comes with a Lada badge on it, but it's a VW family item.
I wonder if there's a kit available for the 2020 Corvette?
So this is just like a VW pointer truck but just better all around
BROTHER YOU HAVE TO CHECK IF THE CARS. COMPANIES DON’T COPIE YOUR OWN DESIGN CAUSE IF THEY DO IT YOU CAN. SUE THE COMPANY FOR MILLIONS
Annoying music... Put something more relaxing will be more interesting than... And no sound it’s boring to watch 🙉 👍🏼 Otherwise, good job
Where can I get this kit
Nice job! In Brazil already have this small pickup: VW Saveiro, Fiat Strada, Chevrolet Montana, et all.
pretty sharp conversion not convinced it’s a weekend project unless you’ve done many of them with the kit ? since my first cars were Watercooled VW Rabbits i’ve always had a fondness to the overall appearance to their pickup look but have had to go full size American for their hauling and towing capacities ! Although i do keep a eye out for the used VW Deisel Caddy’s pretty regularly
como se consigue el equipo y con esa modificacion no se compromete la estabilidad y soporte del veiculo?
Awesome
The first mechanical upload that is best with headphones.
Has anyone gotten one and ditched the Ford taillights and used a VW taillight?
And as far as weight, it shouldn't be an issue. I used to stuff 1200 pounds of wood pellets in a b5 Passat and it did ok. Stopping was different but handling wasn't too bad.
nice , but this is way too much work, id rather build a plane
Jethro Tull first time I ever did acid what a great show that was in the Indianapolis Coliseum fact about 1971
They should make the small wv pickups and sell them ... Awesomeness
Reminds me of the Dodge Rampage. Thumbs up for J.T.
Way way to much work for the average person
