I live New Hampshire they let us in the Boobies Bar , Nice L👀K at all those Racks
Wow you guys are so awesome ! , Thats what i want one day a vw raptop wouldn't mind if it was a fix me upper just like that one, would love to make it a daily driver one day , and you only payed 500 for it, great deal!, Hey any tips where can I find a good deal like that?
That’s a 59. The radio antenna is on the left side.
My 58 has the antenna on the right side.
thank you Adam, no, i was joking about the 500, the ragtop clip I bought up in the loft was more :). They are still out there
NOPE, Jan 1958, vin #180....must be a so cal thing😝
58-59 beetles had two year only interiors. Those door cards are uber special. Please don’t swap them out. Find some original 58-59 seats and maintain that super rare interior. Agave green exterior with the dark green rag and the two tone green/gray interior will look AMAZING!
yes, Jen was just saying the same thing UGH lol
Definitely listen to your wife! Happy wife. Happy life! 😂
Dear @@5150mxVW
Can I really trust you with this? The whole VW world knows, that blue is the favourite colour of your wife Jen. 😁 ;-)
Sincerely yours.
I'm still stuffing those fresh front red seats in before the mice get them in the rafters lol.
Red is my favorite color but, I have to agree with Jeff Bannon, keep the original door cards. What a find Jason, love this VW!
In my dreams I will own an old Beetle again.
Its amazing that there are still barn finds in 2022..
I was at a red light light yesterday and what I think was a green Super Beetle stopped at the light at the left on the road crossing the one I was on. I opened my window, gave them a big thumbs up, and yelled "Thumbs up! Yeah baby!!". They smiled back.
At last I got my computer working to add a comment. Again, love the '58. I really enjoy these videos and I'll tell you why. Firstly you remain yourself, not trying to make things prettier than they are. So you make mistakes and you leave those in the video, collapsing cameras and all. It makes it all very familiar and human. I also like the fact you don't add music tracks to your clips - unless you're on the road and you want to show scenery, that works very well. All in all it might all look clumsy at first glance, but the use of the camera, and the editing just makes the clips an enjoyable watch. It's also nice to see regular people doing regular stuff.
Parked on a wooden floor in a dry building saved that car! It's like being in a box of desiccant! Did you get permission from Mustie1 and vwnut 1967 to hunt VW in New Hampshire? Will you have to pay them sales tax, even though there is no state sales tax in NH? Hanging out with you must be like life in a cartoon- very colorful and action packed! Thanks for the great videos.
haha, well now you know how that happened , the GodFather got his cut, the Ghia lol. Thanks man , I always appreciate your comments
it's always so exciting to find a truely desireable barn car.
This ragtop is a sweet car!
i think it's even more desireable then a full cabriolet.
In the end ............... one very very happy boy. And it showed. well done.
:))))))) so happy , thank you Dale
What a sweet old beetle. Color is beautiful too!
thank you Daniel, I agree
Jason, I think this may be my favorite barn find of yours! Congrats!
Hi Rich, thank you man!
Car auction drama can be a real pain in the ass, but having good friends around to help haul your trash/treasure makes it worth the battle. Nice score on this one. Gotta love ragtop beetles.
yes, i got the car i wanted, i didn't want the bus
Oh damn, loving that ‘58!
Great score guys!
Well that's auctions for you, win some lose some. I think you got an even better deal with this one anyway. I reckon someone was going to respray that car and just gave up. Thanks for taking us along with you. Try not to get too heated Jason you could end up with high blood pressure
like me.😂👍👍
What a find! The '58 is beautiful. Can't believe it rolled out of the barn.
thank you , I couldn't believe it rolled either wow
Wonderful barn find !!!!
thank you William
What a find! I am always rooting for you to happen upon a "barn find" that is not a pile of rust with a frozen engine. Excited to see what you do with this one. I will never forget the twin 1958 bugs that my two older brothers bought new. The only difference was Continental (Michelin?) tires vs Dunlops.
thank you ! Wow, cool story , thank you for sharing
Oh so lovely! My father had a 59 Beetle before I was born. My dream car is a blue 63 ragtop.
nice 👍, I have a ruby red 63 ragtop
A 1958 ragtop...how awesome is that!. It's going to be your favorite Beetle.
it could be , love the org color
Saw you and mustie1 together again it is such a treat sir, God bless
:)), God Bless you as well Salvador
Dreams do come true !
Who knows what's out there waiting ?
5150 will find it .
✌️
YES! :))))
Wow! Your awesome run of luck on getting such fine cars lately. You haven't been laying in the mud digging with a shovel in a long time. And such beautiful dashes. Congrats!!!
thank you William, really stoked with this one
Oh Boy, Another Great find Brother. and This One Was a Easy One to get out. lol Be safe Dizzy.

That looks in fantastic condition for it’s age. Great find, just shows you that there are some great cars still out there

Cool find after the auction bust. Can't wait to see her running with the new rag over her
Nice find 58 and the engine Sweet got to show that Nepolian Hat and that back seat battery area!
thank you, It's on the lift, you'll get a peek ...it's very chocolate fudgeY
Sweet ride, can’t wait to hear her run.

Congratulations! Great find!
Thank you Reggie !
Super cool, the way you give these treasures new life!

Amazing find, you’re a master at finding them 5150. Can’t wait to see the next instalments on this one. 58 rags just don’t exist over here
thank you AB, it's going into the shop today
There are a few about, not enough in my life though.
I would love one in Tasman blue 58 Golde.
58, best year (and my favourite year) for the Beetle IMHO.
I had a 58, had all its original panels Inc its 4 tab bonnet, came from Sweden. Stupidly sold it and miss it every day.
Wow u guys have me on the edge of my seat!!! Awesome score 👍👍 Great job getting that bug... Can't wait to see if it runs almost to much excitement keep up the good work have a great weekend....
thank you EB!
Shame the seats are missing, but it looks really good. Goes to show there are some good ones left out there!

Outstanding find, love it!
thank you, I do too, I have been stripping off the primer to reveal the org paint....looking good
Great find!!
thank you David!
Wow what beautiful bug ,that's a winner

Excellent score Jason! I drove a '58 Bug daily for 3 & half years, many moons ago.

Fixed up that thing is 35 thousand dollar car easy. Good on you Jason congrats. yeah that's a nice find.
thank you, i'm stoked to have it
Wish I could stumble across as many classic VWs as you do, that’s awesome
it gets a little heavy sometimes
Looking exceptionally good. It's going to be a runner for a long time still. Take care !!
thank you Henry
LOVE THE BUG!!!
thank you Matthew !
What a score. Great addition to the family. These finds just seem to get better and better. Good karma is flowing for you for sure. 👏👏👏👏
thank you, yes , keep the good karma flowing👍
Oh man ,that's one sweet bug ! It's like the bug fairy just keeps hiding these in barns all over the place up yonder ways !
yeah you know my "production team" does a pretty good job at " faking " all these finds 🤣...I haven't seen one of those comments one this one yet and it's one of the cleanest i've pulled!
@@5150mxVW I wasn't implying in any way that this was fake. I was just joking about there being a bug fairy up there. There are still a lot of hidden treasures to be found. Just have to put the leg work in to find them.
@@MrTonyPiscatelle Hi Tony, I know you weren't it just would crack me up when I'd get some comments about a production crew planting and creating some of my barn finds.
Nice find with the 58. Sounded like it wasn't a very good day, until you got the 58. The camera taking a bow was the best. How do you time things like that?
,,,,,,DooooooooooooooD !!!...................always a good sign,,,,,,,pushing cars around!!!!.😯😯😐😐..what a buy!!!....your killin it this year.....wow,,,,clean,,,,,............don't paint it...imo,,,,,,,tnx,pat,,,land o' lakes,wi.
Awesome car dude!!! 👍
thank you Patrick !
Too much fun!
Amazing find !!!
thank you PSG
Wow! Jason you are prolific!! Your finding bugs left and right! What happened with the double cab? And what did the bus sell for? Oh so many questions! So little answers.
Wow, Amazing find! That is one good-lookin' Beetle.
thank you !
Wow! nice find man! awesome👍🤘
thank you Nicholas
Hey, it's got all the hubcaps!
Nice car. Its looks really solid. Great score Jason.
thank you AG
👍👌👏 Simply fantastic! Great find and purchase again. Congrats. Hope you stay with the green/creme white door cards and a fitting interior. Hope also that you have a period correct front hood in stock. Hope very much, that this time you have left the rodent nest where you bought the bug. By the way: What about the split window bus and all the body parts?
Thanks a lot for making explaining recording editing uploading and sharing.
Best regards luck and health to all of you.
hey CC, I am staying with the OG interior just stuffing the red seats in. I did find an org agave green 4 tab hood .....the winner took the bus and split parts and sold me the 58 and gave me the ghia.
awesome video jason nice save the car looks amazing
thank you 34
wish you'd tell us how much these cars cost

That Patina makes an AWESOME PAINT JOB ! Try to keep that 👍
that is just primer . I may strip it to org paint or just repaint it...thank you Keith
Congrats🎉
thank you J
good job any action is in most times// is a waste of money,- as off to the side you can make your best deals// just walk away //the rich will do nothing with the cars just sit on it //nice find //go go
That's an orange Karman Ghia like my first car! Love it!
yes, vert too
Wicked score. Awesome work. =)

Guy`s welcome back I`ve found the Ark of the Covenant and a super rare Beetle this week.
That green, WOW!

Im missing something here what happened to the other cars and the Auction.
another good one
thank you P12
That is a great score!
You cannot complain about picking up that Golde cut too.
yes it is ! there is a clip of me stripping it back to org paint at the end of my latest vid. Grabbed the clip for 750
@@5150mxVW double score! I wish I could find one in that condition for that price.
I am guessing from the colour it is a '58 clip also.
(Looks Diamond Green/Light Bronze metallic or similar)
@@henryroberts7098 yes, i found a 58 years ago in that diamond green , 50k something org miles too , interior was amazing ! sold it to a new vw friend for 4500
Awesome. Glad for ya
Thank you Bryan
Nice find 👌 👏 👍 !
thank you MC
Awesome video God Bless
thank you Ricky
Awesome find....
thank you Carl
J you are my hero. I love that 58 rag! That’s really what I want, a 59 or 58 rag. Good for you.
I have another 58 ragtop in the heard, it's blue. It is really easy to push as it has serious weight reduction but has a running 36er :)
Lucky man. How much weight reduction are we talking about?
@@snowdogs59 oh it's bad ...there are some old vids on it....blue patina monster
If you say it’s bad I can only imagine😱
very cool.
thank you DS
Uau, que achado, sensacional. ❤️❤️❤️
What a sweet original '58, just like you want them. $500 was a steal.
i was kidding about the 500 :)
you found grandmother cars //only used on Sunday to go to church .
Outstanding!
thank you
Dam, you stepped in it again. 😎👍👍
Very nice 58!!! You scored in the end!!
thank you Tony, come get one
@@5150mxVW ohhhhh I wished I could!!!
damned high rollers! very nice rag top, way to bounce back buddy! looking forward to seeing you work on her..
Matt was Right , it worked out best . I was going to sell the bus as I only wanted the 58 .
Yes me too ...WORK 👍👍
@@5150mxVW really, you don’t want the bus, that looked pretty sweet! 58 is super cool, but busses are way cool. Ok, so your saying your a bug man?
Does everyone hoard VWs in the northeast?
I believe so
Echt gut was du machst. ❤❤❤
Grüße aus Germany. Tom-tom
