Cool! Save them all! There's a nice beetle here in central WV that's sitting at the scrap-mans right now and needs saved. Complete, straight, strange-but-nice gold paintjob. He's held it aside with some old 1940 domestics, but now they're lined up to disassemble.
Oh i hope he gets the original Paint back Color codes are Saturnyellow L13M snd Black 41 for Trunk lid and Motorlid I hope it can help you. Exhaust pipes are matblavk. Very rare parts. Bumper are black with yellow Strips in the middle section
I just brought home a 70 beetle, big engine fire and supreme weight reduction, stripped by tweakers. And setting nine years. I paid what he wanted, $150. He quickly scurried away to buy another bag of crystal. A gallon of water in the crankcase and melted carburetor and fuel pump drizzled on the engine case. Now my third beetle. 67, 69 and now a 70 My wife thought I was nuts. It has the original b case engine, that now runs and drives. It took a little while to break it free, a used intake (the old one was plugged with melted aluminum) carb, dizzy, and the only thing I bought…..plug wires. And it ran pretty good for what it had been through. Restoration is now underway. Too bad I can’t post it on you tube. Much as I like watching the videos, I wouldn’t piss on the CEO if they were on fire. And not going to post anything more for them to exploit. IMO any aircooled is worth saving. Great video, thanks for sharing.
Yeah, in this yellow a 1303 Bug was my first car and i bought it at a Fiat dealer in Bremen, Germany and it was 1982. My 1303 was 74. Logical, the condition was in 1982 much better, then this car here, but, the dealer have to repair the entry sill on the left side at an 8 year old car. It was typical for a 74 car in Germany, because all Manufacturer make their cars from very bad steal and cavity wax was not processed. I loved the 1300er motor with 44 hp.
@@DubWerks In the 1970th all manufacturers in Germany had the Problems, with the Steel. Example: the Mercedes W114/115, build from 1968 till 1974. I had an 230.6 and it was scruffy, it was like the car from Fred Flintstone. All the Modells before 1973 were much better. Or the first VW Rabbits, we say Golf 1, from 1975 rusted very fast. It was a time, all manufacturers bought there steel from Eastern Germany and the quality was very bad. Look, the superbugs 1302 and 1303, many 1302 are in better conditions, than the 1303, because of the bad steel from eastern europe in this time.
In 10 years the market for Bugs is going to collapse. The youngest Boomer will be 69, but the youngest Boomer doesn't have anywhere near the attraction to the bug the younger Boomer have. While there are Xers who like Bugs, it just nowhere near with Boomers. I'm within the first 5 years of Gen-X and I can tell you that by the time I was old enough to drive, they were off the road and ripening lemons. Problem was, the Boomers loved them and so they were priced out of our market. In the late 80s, you could get an (originally) nice (but old) American car for 500 bucks. For maybe 2 grand, get something a lot niceer and newer. But a 72 bug was thousands of Dollars. So most Gen-Xers simply didn't ever have any experiences with these cars and don't have any nostalgia for them. Gen-Y has only ever known them as "classic" cars or they knew the new ones in the 90s that have nothing in common with the bug.
@@vintage76vipergreenBeetle The only thing I might be wrong about is the time line. It might be that it takes 15 or 20 years. But this has happened with other cars from different generations. It's somewhat iconic and there will probably always be a market, but a smaller one with lower prices.

Congratulations, fun day, nice edit ! Oh and you are now sole owner 😁
Thanks! Yes I am!
She`s solid and doable.
Very
As it was coming out of the shed I’m thinking “wow, that engine is quiet!” - not seeing the tow line. Best of luck with the revival.

It’ll be just as original, only the US ones have yellow hoods and trunks.
My first car in 1978 was a 73 Beetle that same yellow, drove the piss out of it. I could pull the engine in no time.
30 minutes or less!
DubWerks diving his car// at high way speed in front of G.M.C. truck .pulling him down the highway //outstanding ,
Awesome! Dash looks in decent shape too.
One small crack😡

When I was 6 I drove home from the dealership with my dad in his brand new 1973 marathon blue sports beetle. This is the car I grew up in.
That’s awesome!
Yes!

Awesome story! I think the steel on the older cars is better than new, but they definitely rust worse!

Let's see, if you are right in 10 years.
