You guys have a great VW community there in Texas! Good thing Matt Jackson finally put on a mask! Gary you set a good example! You guys are awesome, and Its always fun whether your out and about on a cruse, or back in the shop working on a project. Happy Fathers Day Gary and all you other Dads out there!
What a great day. Glad I got to enjoy it without having to drive all that way. Always a pleasure watching the big boys have a play day. Thanks. Never a disappointment.
That must have taken a lot of effort, both in the filming and editing, awesome! Loved the grainy section, looked a really fun day out, even more so in these strange times! Thank you! Greetings from the UK!
Hi go dubs, my problem was with my 74 standard beetle pulled into a gas station went to start after filling up wouldn't start, after spending three quarters of an hour trying to find out why I found I had to get underneath and tap the starter motor because it had jammed, which isn't easy because it's lowered lucky it wasn't raining all best and keep well from across the pond.🇬🇧🤪🤪👍
I had the same problem when I took my '70 bay window to Cars and Coffee the for the first time. I had no idea, then a guy came along to talk to me about the car; I told him I was having trouble and he crawled under to tap on the starter. I tried to give him $20 but he wouldn't take it.
Okay guys I think I have the "bug." We traveled to Palo Duro canyon last week and during the trip I spotted a Karmann Ghia on cinder blocks, a dune buggy and a beetle shell. This afternoon I found a place with no less than 10 beetles, one had the oval rear window and several buses, one with the split windshield. Also lots of "no trespassing signs. Place was abandoned. Anyway, there are still some VW material out there. Hope you had a great June bug run. Keep rolling!
You know, I feel truly special for having this community to make memories and have birthdays with. Thank you Jake, Alice, Matt,Austin and Danyel for the footage. Also, I know stick now so watch out on June bug
71 SuperBeetle-Short version, Went camping someone broke key in ignition. Hot wire car to go home ,dropped off three people, I get home, park car and the steering wheel locks. Someone was watching out for me.
Hi Guys. I wanna bring the family tomorrow to cheer you on. What time will you end up at Top Notch? We wanna be there when you pull in to take pics. Thanks 🙏
Hey Guys, I subscribed several months ago. I look forward to Thursday’s. I love what y’all are doing. I finally got a VW (73 super Beattie). I needs some tires, just wondering what I should get. Thanks for your help.
Well that's great news Jeffrey! Will your lucky with a beetle there's a lot of options. We would suggest getting on the samba and looking on the tire thread. It really depends on what kind of Wheels you have and if it's lowered or not
Happy Birthday ( Axel ) Vw for life you guy's rock every time I watch you guy's you're fixing something and you tell everything you are my live how to fix your VW engine show for this idiot. 🤯 Blessings and more Blessings to you and your family Fort Worth Texas appreciate your video
My first car in '75, a 64 Bug. 500 bucks. So simple to learn the maint. and repairs. Idiot book and a Chilton book. 40 years later, another '64. Never gunna sell this one. Bone stock=reliable. Someday maybe an Austin cruise. Cheers from west TX
so my bug has been down for 3 months having a new top end on the engine and seals put in the transmission. I was told by the mechanic and others replace the fuel pump while the engine is down they are known to fail and flood the crankcase with gas. Oh and since you have a altenator you need to go to this different type pump and you will need a new pushrod. So I get it. The St Louis VW show is about to happen. So I polish it up like never before wax it polish the wheels polish the chrome clean it inside also. My wife sez she will go with me (not a car person) and we set off. I ended up on the side of the road twice before turning back and broke down 3 more times before we get home. I then took off the new fuel pump and buy another generator fuel pump and buy a new pushrod (cause I gave away the old one) and it's been running since. DOH!
Cruising with VW Life around Austin TX, to bring the community together and to celebrate a young man's birthday. By the way Gary, veggie burgers are good!😊
As you know due to health issue I been having to sell my vw projects, my 64 bus is gone this weekend will sell my 69 beetle my 67 deluxe bus will go to the new owner after i finish a few more items. The last bus and one that will require the most work & money is my 67 camper bus done by Sportmobile. Everytime i watch VW Life I tell my son i need to keep my Bondo Condo and and Rubin my 63 beetle. My health may improve, next year ; I know you all understand how of all the vw you have had there always one or two that just speak's to you.. Plus how can i be Busman54 if i do not have a bus?? Cool get together looks like everyone had a fun day VW day.
6:56 that Beetle looks way better than that Hyundai Santa Fe even for a smaller vehicle yet spacious more shapes! TDI for lyfe furever!🔵🖤⚪️🇩🇪🇩🇪🇩🇪

Hey i was just wondering how you can take off rust from the roof of a bus
Is it just surface rust? If so you can just get it off with a grinder
