There is no way that bus will ever rust. Even a million years after we are all decayed and gone, Kona will look pristine and rust free.
That's the goal! :)
Good job guys,greeting from Slovakia
You’ve reinvented the bus practically
I really like this frame 20:45 ! ☺
Cue Wang Chung moves @ 29:23
get it in the booth already, the suspense is killin' me!
Nice!
Only patience can come out with the best.
Great Job Lori!
I don't think I've seen a more meticulous restoration then this one. Obviously, this will be in concourse condition once it is finally completed and will actually be much better than one coming from the factory direct. That is obvious from the fact you are fixing items that were the way they came out of the factory.
I've watched ur videos since frist one awsome jod vus gonin to be sharp can't wait to see finished product
I would like to shake hands with you and the whole team for your confidence, dedication and hard work already done. Good luck to you!
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
So meticulous with every detail. Shes gunna be the bomb.
thanks, can't wait!
🤜🤛👍👍👍nice work
AAAUUUGGHH........I want to see Kona painted SOOO BAAAAD...!!!! I thought for sure it would be this episode but NOOOO....lol. Well ..hope and pray maybe next one..?
I’m feeling the same exact way about it😭😭😭!! How could they😳😳😩😩?? Waaaaaa
hahah paint coming very soon!
Question... how much cost a ton of yellow mask tape? 😅😅😅
Nice job bro!!!!
22:53 / 48:18 question: this is something new to me! I've never seen this done before. I'm curious to understand the purpose behind applying the sealant on the outside of the vehicle. Is there a video or explanation that delves into the reasoning behind this process? I'm familiar with applying sealant inside the vehicle compartment, but seeing it done on the outer structure of a VW Bus is truly intriguing. I'd love to learn more about the benefits and reasons behind this technique!
👍👍👍!!!
See if you can find a shipbuilder. He could have Woods would fight rot Carters in the woods are in America. Find yourself a shipwright finish Carpenter. Teakwood or Red Heart would be beautiful inside. I have been watching this bill from day one. Nice looking young lady you have to she has very beautiful eyes. 😂😂😂
I love this build, and I will love it more if you EV swap it!!
👌👏👏👏
What is the brand of Claudio's tan work jacket?
Too boring, post the sanding and other work time lapse and post the painting fast
How many miles of tape have you used????
Giggles
Kona is coming on a treat, dont know the back story of how you ended up at this particular restorers, but boy O boy are you at the right place, I dont know how you eneded up with Lori but buy some handcuffs so that she cannot run away, because Mic whatever life has done to you it has made amends with finding you that young Lady. cheers from the U.K.
Great progress. Wood floors??? Very interesting concept. Looking forward to 61
Sometimes it seems like your not making progress, but if you look at all the things you have done already you'll press on. It nice that Lori is helping alot
Peace ✌️
Oh! I'm already desperate to see KONA BUS painted. I love this serie. Greetings from Tizayuca Hidalgo, Mexico
Stoked you are enjoying the series !
I didn’t watch this series, but how come you are 60 episodes in and this is still unfinished?
Because restoring a Bus at this level takes a really long time
Peter actually done. But he been busy make lots video and build his bus and due covid and moved and travel and money. He planned to rebuilt like 7 years ago but started like 4 years ago.
@@bava67 bingo!
@@Chr.U.Cas1622 Views haven't dropped.. do you have access to my RUclips analytics? lol.. But I love how you think you know everything! Not everyone will love the series, but If you don't enjoy the vids, you don't have to watch them! just saying
Non vedo l'ora di vedere la prima mano di vernice, siete troppo forti, un saluto da Roma
Using something like an exact spectrophotometer will give you perfect LAB numbers for color match
Keep them coming. This is getting so much closer.
Cant wait for the next episodes starting to see kona come together going to be amazing when finished 👊🏻👊🏻👊🏻
I'm really looking forward to seeing that crazy blue color pop on your bus! It's going to be the best-looking kombi around.
Hey Mitch, I recommend you seal that marine plywood with a good sealer, yes, they do seal it from factory but its also good to seal it yourself for additional protection. Especially if you paid that kind of money for the marine plywood. And don't forget to lightly sand it before you seal it. cheers. btw and where you make any cuts reseal the ends of the plywood and do a couple coats on everything.
Will do🤙🏼🤙🏼
Great teamwork good job to both of you it's going to be wonderful 👍
Your fabrication skills are increasing on every video! Looking good!
Hola amigo, buen trabajo de los dos, espero el próximo capítulo 61. Éxitos 😊 🇻🇪
I Love watching these videos Thanks for taking the time to make them..
🙌😊
I know this project is long since done, but Aircraft Spruce & Specialty has marine grade plywood along with domestic and Finnish birch. Unfortunately, Corona is a looooooooong way from Vacaville, lol!!
🤙🤙🤙🤙
Hi Mitch and Lori, you're both a powerhouse of a team, incredible work and from watching every video so far - I've learned so much too! Your skills that you have learned throughout this journey have just grown and grown, mate much respect, you've got the patience of a saint. I hope I'm that patient when I get my bus! Keep going, it's amazing what you're both doing. 🙂 Thank you.
Hello from Costa Mesa Mike, Lori, & our beautiful Lady Kona🥰🥰🥰!! I always look forward to each & every one of your guys’ videos, to see the progress on our dear Lady. I appreciate all the time, $$, effort, sweat & patience you guys do to give Kona a happy new lease on life. We love you Lady Kona🥰🥰🥰❤️❤️❤️!! I was hoping THIS would be the video of where She gets her colors on Her…but, NOOOOOO!! You gotta keep us in suspense, now, don’t you😁😁😂😂😂😜😜😜?? Well, there’s always next week…which seems SOOO far off from now😭😭😭😭. (Sips on my Starbucks Venti Iced Hazelnut Coffee to soothe myself…)
Paint coming soon! Thank you for your comment! 😊
Wood is really expensive today. Especially plywood. The thicker the more expensive.
hello..micbergsma..why not intive mike Fn garage??he doing wood anything...
Hi my name is Mike I live in Alabama I LIKE WATCHING YOUR VIDEOS ON THE BUS
Que loco .....
Jaaaaa.
Saludos de buenos aires argentina. ❤❤❤❤
I’m curious to know if your very meticulous work ends up being better than original? And if so; Does that detract from its value in any way?
Carro arrumar depois pintar cores bonito depois carro dentro móveis 👌🏽🚐
Claudio is 👌🏼
Hallo, ich muss sagen ihr macht richtig super Sachen mit dem VW Bus, nur ich verstehe nicht warum ihr die 60 Folge habt, nach meinen Gedanken müste dieses Fahrzeug schon lange fertig sein? Oder wollt ihr es vergolden , oder ein neues Modell .auf den Bildschirm bringen, ok ich verstehe dich wirklich nur werdet bald fertig damit, denn es ist nur ein VW 1 oder 2 , daher kann es wirklich nicht sooooo lange dauern bis er fertig ist,
Das mit dem spachteln und schleifen , sowie das ausspritzen, Hut ab vor dem spachteln ?
OK danke eurer Videos, hoffe wir bekommen bald neue Fahrzeuge die auch interessant wären?????? Sowie deiner Arbeit als ,,,,, nun du weißt was ich meine, auch ich bin ........... Daher weiß ich deinen Einsatz sehr zu schätzen?!!!😅😅😅😢😢😢😂😂😂❤❤
LG.herbst
First time in my life using seam sealer outside the car, in this case Kona. 🤯
Made my day love the vids Mic.
Thank you! Stoked to hear :)
I've always felt that after the first coat of primer is applied, then the hardest work of the project is next; BLOCKING........... Good Job Mitch and Lori!
Thank you! Lori did actually a lot of the blocking !
What engine is going in ?
Just binged a bunch of videos great job so far
We’re you writing checks there at the end ?
Man I wish I had your energy!😂
You use more tape on one bus than you do painting a house.
Your patience and determination is insane!
At first a like, then looking the video✌️🫶
EST OFICIN E NOTA
10 ASS BRASIL
That’s rad with the Z bed! So are you gonna try and do a 67 westy interior without the closet?
You will see.. stay tuned !:)
Great Team work 👍 Love from Dubai 💞
Mahalo!
5/8 x 4 x 8 AB Sanded Marine Grade Plywood around here (Philadelphia) is around $125 a sheet
man I'ma need a cigarette after watching Claudio do that seam sealer.
haha
2 videos a week! ;-)
Just laquare the primer. Looking awsome it's all in the prep work .a good team
👍👍👍😜🏴🦕🦄😁✌️🤞
Awsome
❤from🇵🇭
Curious how the adjustments go with the z-bed. I bought one for my '71 Bay and it is for a 3/4 and want to change it to a full size but I don't have a base box as a template? Ideas or measurements? Thanks. Love this series.
Hello from Russia, your work is cool, but why is the video only now, and shot in 2021😉🤔
the sawdust must be worth a fortune when you cut the ply
ha! Yeah, maybe I should sell it ;)
Hole saws are very crude and always make oversize hole slightly. A step drill is much better and cleaner hole 😊
thanks again, I'm waiting for the next video :)
One wonders what was wrong with the old seam sealer such that you had to scrape it out and replace it with new seam sealer? And if the new seam sealer is self-leveling, why is Lori leveling it with her finger? Weird.
Está demorando muito, o episódio 60 não foi bom!
Wow finally a new episode, now we will wait maybe for another
that pretty nice van me my dream it a type 2 van or a vw golf mk2
Hello from Ireland..great job👍
Ich sehe deine Videos unheimlich gerne und nicht nur ich (in Deutschland) aber nicht jeder kann so gut Englisch könnte man vielleicht auch ein Deutschen Untertitel machen liebe grüße
I really like all of the team members here.
Super 😂fajnie auto vw
Let's go homieeee
Beautiful grain on wood!
I’m really glad you like the parts I sent you. I’m sure that Kona looks amazing. So don’t let the negativity here get you down.
Thank you Bryan for the parts!! Thank you!
Super nadal odcinki:)

That's ok! You're still here!
Hi There Mic, Lori and all the hard workers whi make it possible to let you drive in the most best restaurated bus I have ever seen. Yes it is hard work but in the END it will be so satisfing . SeamSealing is hard work. It takes hour and hours to compete the task but what a result. Everything airtight and no chance for water inside the cabine.
I watch all your video's and specialy Kona the bus. All your other video's is wonderfull to see like diving i the ocean and swimming with all that beautifull animals that lives beneeth the waterline. Mic&Lori, Thank you so much for this episode , these are video's I remember for the rest of my life. I wich all the best in the world and give my love and support from the Netherlands. Bert de Vries. Hillegom. State: south Holland.
😘😏
Awesome to hear. Thank you for the comment ! :)
Coming along nicely❤
Thank you...🤙
This is more a work of art the way your approaching it. BUT, I know you’ll love using it and enjoying it for many years. It will really be fun to see it all finished 🫵🏻👍🏻♥️
