I wanna see them all restored now
I wanna see joe BAHAMA MAMA restored
Im trying to find them restored too
Theyre not into restoration..they love it as it is..maybe the guys that bought it from them might restore it..
Love it! The way VWs should be sold. It's impossible to get them for that price. Good score Mike!!!
When he was talking about how as a kid looking through the windows on a trip to the Swiss alps it made me realize how no car today can come close to the perfect road trip car as these vw vans did
You seem to be a big fan of American Pickers and know the ins and outs of values.I just watch because Mike, Rob,Frank and Danny seem so genuine and nice.I've watched so many episodes some 2 and 3 times the guys seem like family.
Ta their real nice when they get thier way and rip people off
Mike (& Dani) and Frank's contributions to preservation of our nations history MUST be acknowledged for future generations to appreciate 😊😊😊
The key to their success is Mike's charm.
So true, it's certainly not frank. He behaves like an attorney
$37K for all three!?? Omg, one of those busses was worth that! I was like dude NO! 😭
Restored, 1 went for just over $200k and one went for $300k.
Hey give the bug some love.
3:35 :yes I saved them but I saved them for somebody else😭😭 I could feel his pain.
You guys! I even got so exited !! Good for you and the seller.
We need to see the restoration of these vehicles on follow up programmes.
Hope we see them someday soon restorted.....wow....good jod Art
Love the VW cars and vans.
I’m surprised those guys didn’t ask for the shirt off his back too!!
bahaha :(
That was nice of that man to sell those vans. Hope they make a video of them when there up and running.
Those buses were sold before they left the guys property for a major profit. You can count on it.
Each is worth $37,500. They ripped him off. The 23 window bus is worth $50,000 just sitting there.
The guy is being ripped off.
Remember this is not “Reality TV”. All this programs are staged, it is lake the Rastling of our times!
Great buy !
Hit up Fluffy! He loves him some VW Bus action
Good grief! What an unbeliiiievably bad informed seller!!! 37K for that 23 window with the long/big ragtop would have been O.K.! Bit for all 3 busses?! For heavens sake...
Old is gold.
Vw guys are different. He got paid and the busses are going to get fixed up. He won in his book. Anyone who doesn't think so, must not quite get it. ✌🏽
Believe it or not that’s my uncle
@@gabrielrobison9228 My last name is Robison too - maybe we're related (I too am a VW guy!)
Awesome cars.......
The owner might as well sale these old vw vans. He can't take them with him.
Love this episode 🙏👍🇺🇸
Brilliant
Woodstock here I come! Great pick at an awesome price
Love this show ❤ 💕
This show is unique and so special
NICE FIND BARNEY!
Back in the 90s in California they were flattened alot of these at the wreckers, or selling them cheap .
"Hippie haulers", is what my dad always called these vans.
Speechless 😱
4:15 you can tell Mike score alot in his pick.
@4:18, it's nice to see Bill Nye the science guy out buying Volkswagen to recondition.
These two ripped this guy off! The 23 window alone is worth 65,000 plus as it sits!
Remember this is not “Reality TV”. All this programs are staged, it is lake the Rastling of our times!
Poor guy he got robbed
You guys ripped that man off.
Lol How?
Remember this is not “Reality TV”. All this programs are staged, it is lake the Rastling of our times!
Mike stole those @ $37k. WOW ‼️
Wow that’s an incredible cheap deal, feel sorry for Art, come on guys!!!
Remember this is not “Reality TV”. All this programs are staged, it is lake the Rastling of our times!
I love this
I just was up there talking to him walking around his property today awesome guy and he's not trying to get top dollar just trying to re-home what's left
all you guys are saying that they ripped him off, I would love to see you guys dump 40 grand into just buying them. That doesn't include shipping them add 3 grand, paying a guy to fix them with correct museum quality parts that's where you get the most money for them that easily as low as 40 and as high as 70 grand. the guys will have over 100 grand invested in the 3 vans how many of you would dump that much money into 3 vans that have been sitting outside in the elements, rust is everywhere, parts are nearly impossible to find especially for the 23 window, they are not making a Bunch of money off these vans. they couldn't have gone much higher because mike is looking at the big picture.
Exactly what I was about to say. Everybody knows how much these buses are worth restored, but everyone seems to forget that that price is for full professional restorations and what those cost.
your exactly rite
Personally, I was thinking 10 grand for every car in the barn. They don't run, they haven't ran in 30 years, parts are very rare. The amount of money to restore the vehicles could be astronomical if floor pans are bad, rust is not a good wallet saver
Remember this is not “Reality TV”. All this programs are staged, it is lake the Rastling of our times!
If you have that kinda of money its easy to pay 40,000..he knows the 23 windows worth that the way it sits
Somethings up!.No body in their right mind would sell so cheap!
Holy cow! Mike is THE MAN, now!
Mike and Frank are so awesome
Send em over to Mustie1 and VWBug.
GREAT
Please hire Frank back
Wow what a great deal, I would love to know what you did with them? Will you fix them up or just sale them?
I wanna hate but the vdub busses are cool
Vandalized or stolen? NOPE. Not a person knows they are there for the past 30 years and they and all the other machines on that property won't be bothered for another 30 years....GORGEOUS MACHINES.
You obviously didn’t watch the whole episode LOL
The reason the seller was selling is because his property recently got ravaged, his property was vandalized and items were stolen. He can’t maintain the place so he wants to sell instead of his stuff getting stolen.
How about you watch full episodes first before you comment
Yesterday I was behind a New VW Bus on the highway and Just like the 1960's models, It couldn't do the speed limit either!
NEVER go uphill!
Amazing people and getting amazing Goodies great video. I would put a roof over any Old vehicles over my kids😂👍🤪
Add another$50,000 and we have a deal.
Gonna take $$$ to get them rolling
More money than most have. Might cost more than the actual value of the vehicle
A good bus restoration is a six figure endeavor. Not many wanting to shell that out. The 23 window was in bad shape.
There is also an ACTUAL B E E T L E
I like the 23 WINDOWS, HOW MUCH, this is Marie
Should have called Gabriel Iglesias. He would have treated you way better.
15 window more rare 😊
wow, incredible, 🤤
Mike stole them at that price
The pickers a great show!
Here comes the crooks
ItS aLL Good!.!.!.!
Far Fig Newton!
Hope Mike keeps the 21 window
Mike says, Its almost, like my team of well paid locators, find us good stuff.
Shame on you thieves! You took advantage of the poor old man you thieves! you ripped him off, shame on you!
Mike is 'taking all the risk' ;)
can you find Gem-my animated things to buy and sell?
Remember this is tv most of these shows are set up in advance before they arrive. They have to ship them and put a ton of money in them just to get them running and driving. Maybe they did give him more or they didn't .
Bruh, a restored 23 window can auction around 200k, be the got it for 14k😳
Thanks for making junk pricey again
Airplane windows!
TOP 👏👏👏🇧🇷🇧🇷
I know a buyer already offer it Gabriel iglesias
They just got about, restored $ 200K, easy!
what about the Doodle bug. I'd take it
BROTHER WALLEY THE PREACHER SINGING AT THE CONVELESCENTS, HAD A WHITE 13 VW
He would have got the boot as soon as he said van
Mike would flip them for double, not restore them
If i am a seller of a vintage or prehistoric cars.... im going to sell to the right people not just for only a collection.... its a matter of loving the history, loving the car and to show all the people and to the world that this car are still exist....
It’s shocking that many people who collect things are older yet don’t want to sell anything. It’s called building your treasures on earth. So when they die what good did those items do for their eternity?
You ripped him off big time! that double panel is worth $50.000 as is all day long.
You can’t touch the 23 window for that now
Poor guy got robbed.
Mexican pickers more entertaining ❤
It's so surprising, how people now have the option of using the internet to price check, and still leave way too much meat on the bone.
thats meat on the bone he doesnt care to spend money , effort and time on
You should have said, $40,000 and I'll throw in a bug?
Then your VW mates say OMG what have you done?!
Mike buys a VW: Mike the VW guy
Mike buys an Indian: Mike the Indian guy...
Great guys...no vaseline.
I want the Beetle VW 64, How much do you want?
YOU'VE OBIOUSLY NEVER OWNED ONE!!
Petrol..matches..rag..throw in..walk away..job done.
I wish I could have a vw bus
Robbed the poor guy, and also we not seeing the Patina bug??????????
I have 2 63 crew cabs and a 67 split 15 window.
At least mine are stored and getting worked on.
This dude needs to give them the treatment they deserved.
He coulda gotten at least 50 for the package

It’s not a cold world, it’s just business, you would’ve offered the same price or taking the offer especially if you’re running into $ problems
