Thank you very much for share this awsome moment and let us feel the same emotion .It's Nice to see you smile .So much time you wait but it worth .Congratulations and happy hollydays.
Ct....I'm happy for you..You're not pretentious. You're a regular guy learning as you go and at the same time teaching all of us. I'm 72 would love a neighbor like you doing his thing. Happy New Year, I'm I'm sorry I don't know your name.
Great Videos, I have watched all that you have made really exciting to see Rusty start and drive. That could have been very serious hooking up the 12v battery, there would have been a massive current flowing, I was willing you to disconnect it Kind Regards from Mike in the UK
For a VERY short time, as he did, no problem. No danger but might end with fried starter and coil. A simple solution is to hook up a 12 v accessory, say a headlamp, in continue, not in parallel, so the voltage is then split in 2 = 6 volts. Basic electrical tech.
I'd have to say I'm pretty sure most of ur fans thought either u were going to mess it up or it won't move. I have to say you kept trying and now she moves but body work is the worst monster u must conquer.
Value of new parts and restored ones $100, 000. Value of VW Body ~~~~~~~~~~~~~Yard Art. Stay tuned for the next episode when the cab flies off the frame. : )
Acompanho essa maluquice desde o inicio... poucos entendem a alegria que um carro "velho" pode proporcionar. Good Luck and congratulations from Brazil.
Congratulations man. It is an example of perseverance and effort, but above all of the passion for mechanics, it is not a job, it is a pleasure. This series of videos has made me bring to my mind and senses the time when my grandfather drove a vw panel just like yours. It is a mixture of nostalgia, joy, tears and sighs. Greetings from Guatemala.
swing axle............the wheels will do that naturally a little........now unless you have the torsion rods adjusted so it sits high then the wheels will tilt in and right higher than usuall.
Look at the state of that vehicle body. I doubt it would pass vehicle inspection tests. The whole thing needs scrapping. And you took it out on a public road with no indicators, no horn, no rear view, and dirty windshield. That's just irresponsible.
Hey unless u really like ur fans I'd either blurt or stop showing street signs. Oh and a rear license plate camera that wifi to ur phone won't hurt and nobody would know it was there for that old appearance.
Superhero: Oh no! The crackhead has escaped in his portable methlab, we’re never gonna find him! The crackhead’s portable methlab: Jokes aside, great job 👏 But seriously this looks like a 1960’s crackheads daily driver😂👍🏻

Hi CT, man I hardly ever got comments but it has picked up a bunch especially this holiday. It's funny they asked me questions that are on the video but I answer them anyway because most folks don't watch the whole video anyway🤣
I grew up with these in Europe. Every 5th vehicle on the road was one. Often in pick up with canvas canopy. To be honest, I fail to see the fascination in it.
It's hard to explain why they are so popular....cute, simple, affordable everyone had or knew someone who owned one back in the day. Lots of memories around the world.
Hey Darren, I sold Rusty to a local VW shop last year. They are going to make him like new. I took him as far as I could. He is in good hands. I might be able to get an update video from them at some point. Thanks man!
those "top lights front are turn signal only. pulling the hazard switch is what you did and they should all flash. Your front parking lamps are the small bulbs in the headlamp buckets. I dont know why I dont see a hazard red warning lamp on your dash. somethings wired wrong or not working correctly
@@dustermaniac HIS is 62 model year. Front fried eggs started in the 62 model year. They did not illuminate as parking lamps......going to go look at 1962 schematic now to be sure.

no offense to patina peeps but i just can't understand the appeal of it. I'm rebuilding a 69 scout and 72 f100 and i plan on painting them. i didn't spend hundreds of hours rebuilding it just for it to look like a piece of shit when I'm done.
You don’t have to understand it. If it’s not your thing it’s not your thing... different strokes for different folks. If everyone liked the exact same thing it would be a boring world. Go like what you like and have fun...
There is a filter in your fuel pump. To be cleaned at each oil change. Why the aftermarket? If you don't clean the pump screen, it will starve the filter you added.
I don't own my own property I rent so I had a landlord wait several years ago till I went to work and he towed all my vehicles crushing my dream's with it. I haven't had a hobby since than.
Great job, congratulations. now we go for the aesthetics of the car.
Yes yes yes!!! So pleased for you!

Well done, man. You've poured your heart and soul into it. A great moment.
Thanks Sean! =)
Yeah Sean I’m also a RUclipsr I’m a friend of ct
See you to in a future video
@@HMMAzam Looking forward to that, Husain.
One should never store a battery on concrete. Always put a block of wood underneath the battery. Cheers!
Have you ever seen an expiration date on a battery? Yep it's there, most of the time the store will cover it with a store level promo sticker.
Happy for you. That has to be a thrill after all your hard work. Now all it needs is to be sorted.
There’s nothing like that feeling is there....!!!!👍👌
😢
12 volt to a 6 volt battery :O this can be dangers :(
I don't now enough about what would've happened. I wouldn't have done it for that reason.

CT, I love the feeling of getting these rigs back on the road. I hear a similar giddy in your voice. Ive had the same one before. Merry Christmas!
rusty is back to life...after 40 years
Thank you! =)
EMERGENC BRAKE PROPER ADJUSTMENT IS PULL Handle and get 4 clicks. Well at least more stuff worked in your bus than mine did when I found it.
She runs get out the scotch Brite the linseed oil she'd be looking good. Watch visegrip garage he has some tips on using linseed oil.
There is another guy on RUclips who restores old vw his channel is called Chris vallone
There's quite a number of them now. Tha's why even Rusty is getting valuable.
The Master still is Mustie1 though. The VW Engine Whisperer.
Chris only restores bugs. Can't believe folks buy cars from him.
STEERING A LITTLE WANKY...YUP....BRAKES ARE A LITTLE SQUISHY....Yup Standard split window bus stuff....
vw bus 101
standard
Big like & merry Christmas
Congratulations!!! Good job 👏🏻 👏🏻👏🏻

Very true. But I think this has built up his confidence. He may just start pulling the trigger on that welder.
Thanks Devon! 😎
I like her just as she is.

This is the video I've been waiting for....SOOO excited to see Rusty come to life, right before my eyes...via video of course! 😂
Pon el filtro de gasolina más alejado, no al centro, no entre la bomba y el carburador.
Nice , what a milestone to finally drive it.
Why did you not upgrade the bus to 12 Volts? So easy to to do and so much more relialble!
nice without words it runs . nice job.

That’s just old junk not worth fixing up unless your a millennial.
What a thrill you must have felt to have this going down the road after all your hard work. Great job!
It was was awesome! Thanks Michele! =)

OMG, 20 long jumper cables. I didn't know they made them that long. Pretty cool and useful actually.
This van has a lot of rust and rotten, is it worth it to restore? Embrace
Another great Christmas present for us! Merry Christmas to you and your family!!

Thanks to share with us.

it's almost a shame to clean the windows, know whatdda Vern?

Merry Christmas what a Christmas blessing CT
Year ct merry chrismas for you
Great to see rusty moving after all those years parked. Yessssss👍👍
Wouldn't a body restoration be better B4 installation of new engine etc given rusty frame that needs work.
one would think....=)
I think you should also thanks us viewers who have been patient and waited those 2 yrs before we saw Rusty rolling for own machine.
Thank you! =) It's been a long road but we are getting closer! Thanks for all the support my friend!
Awesome!!!!, way to go man
Hell yeah Rusty is moving under his own power! Man that engine just purrs. Good job ct.
Well done, don't forget your riding on panels just held in with a few self tapping screws.... Hope they're in tight..
Congratulations CT 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
Alguna veces sale chatarra innombrables 🔥🔥🔥los milagros existen un poco caro no? 👎
Thank you!
Thats Awesome. I never myself Messed with the VW's But this one looks like it's worth fixing all the way for sure. Enjoy your ride...
once you mess with your first bus, you wont stop.

Glad there's no HOA in your street lol 😄
There is a Christmas now Rusty on the road CT and you called it a hand brake ha ha ha. Hope you have a great Christmas and a safe and happy new year
She really looks good on the road!
