On "My Car Story" we're in Lord’s Park in Elgin IL on 6-29-21.
We're looking at a 1965 Volkswagen Beetle in Gray & White Paint. The car comes with the factory engine.
The car's Owner is Scott Savel. Scott’s had this car since 2018. He shares this is his 7th Beetle. Turns out he and his wife have a deal. He can have a VW Beetle, however only one at a time.
This exact car was also made into a Johnny Lightning toy car. The former Owner lived in the same city that Johnny Lightning cars were produced, and the company made a toy of the car they saw.
ENJOY!

The small bulbs in the headlights were also called city lights. They were meant for areas in European cities where you were not allowed to have the regular headlights on.
Hi 2W3X4YZ5, Thank you for sharing your knowledge, Lou
Yep, used the same way in Brazilian cities when headlights were too bright because cities have enough street lights. It's still that way in Brazil.
I got started in the auto industry in a VW dealer in 2001 a. Worked there for almost 10 years as a tech and some of the regular customers there would call me the VW Man.
Hi Gabriel "The VW Man", Thank you for sharing, Lou
The cutest classic car ever made.
:-)
What you think of the later New Beetle models?
@@LynxStarAuto cute but not nearly the same quality or experience, as they aren’t even rear engined anymore
For carefree & fun cruising, you just can't beat the Beetle! Scott's '65 really looks great, too with its two-tone paint. Even the bison approve! Thanks, Lou!
Hi TheGunfighter45acp, Happy to read you enjoy this fun ride :-) Bison approved, NICE! You're welcome, Lou
Growing up in Southern California I was exposed to thousands of VW’s at every turn and I owned several. I have an intense love
For the noisy primitive little cars! This one is exceptional! The two tone paint thing is something recent. Never saw one growing up. 72 MPH was top speed and you had to be careful of sudden side wind gusts! My buddy had one that was well overdue for an overhaul and one night someone stole his engine! He paid a 50.00 and his insurance company installed a new one! Nice car, Lou!
Hi Craig, Plenty a Beetle in CA and glad to read you owned many. Great story on the "replacement engine" :-) Lou
What’s old is now new again hold on
With its flat bottom it was fun both on and off road a bit to drive back in the day. You do not have to be going fast to feel like you are. Who doesn't like a old Bug!
Hi jeeper, Happy to read you enjoy this car :-) Lou

That two-toned paint job is what the doctor ordered.
I had two Beetles. One was a standard and the second was a 1974 Super Beetle. The standard one was the sportier edition and the Super Beetle the more comfortable concept. Both were great and had plenty of charachter, almost as if they had a soul.
If you had spare points, condenser and a fanbelt stored in the trunk, you could practically travel anywhere on vacation, without a worry, unlike modern vehicles whose electronics and other complexities sooner or later could fail and leave you completely stranded.
Beetles were both cool in Summer, because of the engine being rear-mounted, and supposedly in Winter (many claim that they were also cool in Winter). My front-mounted engined vehicles would always emit heat through the firewall. Therefore, making them hotter in Summer.
The only thing of which I could complain about was that the seats could not fold flat, in order to create a bed for overnighting or camping in. But then again, this wasn't the original concept behind the Beetle
Hi Al Dente, Glad to read you enjoy this "two toned" car :-) Glad to read you had some fun in your Beetles too :-) Thank you for viewing and sharing, Lou
Lou, you must have some awesome catalog or cars and enthusiasts where can pluck classics like this out of the air! One can see Scott really adores his VW and you really showcased the car nicely. Thanks for bringing another classic forward Lou.
Hi Kevin, I seek, I find, I share with you :-) I agree, Scott's "got the Bug" :-) You're welcome, Lou
What a quaint little car, I am proud to say that I rode home in a VW Beetle, which was owned by a teacher of mine. Our Ford broke down, so the teacher offered to take us home.

Nice little Beetle. These are cars that I need to learn more about. I had a history teacher when I was in high school that told me his parents had one and he told me that he used to climb behind the back seat and ride back there 2 Lou. I wonder if alot of kids did that? That would have been something that I would have done if my parents had one. My grandpa was a Ford man but he used to brag about what good engines the Beetles had in them. " If you take care of the motor they will run forever" was what he used to tell me. Another great video as always Lou. By the way that Bison closest to the fence kinda looked like he was ready for a nap.
Hi PlymouthDuster225, The Bison was not very excited about the video, and no cameo :-) Happy to read the memories this video brings to you. Thank you for sharing, Lou
I love that "T" shirt as well as the car. It is a candy on wheels.
Nice :-)

Love it. You know many of your videos take me back. Mom had a 75 Beetle. Yellow. The only new car she ever owned. I smile now thinking I was small enough to stand up inside the car on the seat. She loved the car, but being in Iowa, shops to repair them either weren't there or were very expensive. Thank you for sharing Lou. Also congrats on the silver youtube button. You deserve it.

Hi FairRodTheCapacitor, I did not know that. Thank you for sharing, and glad you like this car, Lou
If there's anything I like more than my MoPars, it's the early VDubs (Beetles, Ghias, Type 2s, Buses, & Things). I have yet to own one, though 1 day I hope to - even if I have to build it from scratch. This is just the video to start your quest for another 100K subs, Lou! Thanks to Scott for sharing not only his Beetle, but the cool T-shirt as well.

I owned a white '65 with red interior in the late 70's, bought it in an estate sale with a little over 30K miles. Loved that car, loaned it to my sister and she totalled it in an ice storm. Simplicity, quality--nothing American matched these.

It's interesting how wide the doors open. In the 1970s, it seemed like one out six cars on the road was a Beetle.
Hi Jed, You're right. What was VERY common in the 1970's is now hardly seen, Lou
Love the shirt and Love the car!!! I was born in 1965 and legend has it, I was almost born in one of these, man that would've been a great story if I had been, Lol. This is such a sweet fun loving car, I mean, who doesnt Love a VW Beetle???
Punch Buggy!!!
Hi Hobiemarty, Win on the shirt, and win on the car too :-) Interesting that you were almost born in one like this :-) Lou

Great video Lou! Brings back memories! Dad had a 58 beetle! Yes he was also cheap! There was no back seat just piece of hard material and I too used to ride back there! It had no fuel gauge instead it had auxiliary tank and when you ran out of gas there was a foot pedal and you would pump gas from auxiliary tank to the regular tank and that would get you to the gas station! A very unusual feature I have never seen again on anything! Also mom disliked that car! Still at 88 she talks about getting stuck on a hill when it stalled! Funny thing she still drives and has a new Mercedes Benz and loves it!
Hi Jeffery, Happy to read this car brings back memories of your Dads car :-) Thank you for viewing and sharing, Lou
I have this exact same car...a stock 1965 Beetle Fontana Grau L595 etc. I've kept it original...not two tone etc. I've owned it for 47 years and driven it as my daily driver almost all that time. I bought it for $200 (all I could afford at the time) and am still driving it. Not a bad investment......My friends used to laugh at me, telling me that I was the only person they knew who was still relying of the technology of the Third Reich to get to work every day ! I just smiled.....

Once upon a Time these things were as common as bugs on at a picnic. Who would have thought they would become rare and collectible? I had a 1963 beetle my friend and I were riding down the road one time and we saw a wheel roll past us my friend was like "look at some idiot just lost his wheel". When we got to where we going I happened to look at my car and realize I was the idiot that lost the wheel 🤣 the placement of the engine and the weight distribution allowed me to drive for like 10 miles 🤔 with three wheels
Hi Terry M, WOW! Good story! Lou
For those with a few years on you, we use to play “punch-buggie” (give a nuggy) in the 70’s driving to vacation locations; now you hardly ever see one on the road. These cars always bring me great memories (of sore upper arms!). Thx Lou.
Hi Dave, Yes, I've had a few arm punches for sure from the Slug Bug's :-) You're welcome, Lou
Good to see. We had a '63 with a rag sunroof. If you've never driven one they are fun to drive. We were too large to get in the way back. Although I managed it. I learned to drive on it. Let me say, very easy to learn on this car. Can we talk about the heat? Very hot in front. Freezing in back. If it was really cold, forget it. It wasn't my car. My car was a '69 Meadowlark Yellow Mustang convertible. Not easy to learn to drive a stick here. Almost took down a mailbox at a country Inn. Backing out. Then rocketing forward. My father just held onto his head as I blasted out on a country road. Need power? Not a Beetle. Try to drive or buy one if you can. Really really fun.

Neat Beetle. I bet this will be Scott's last. He can't top this one! I remember riding in the back seat of my friend's parents. I'll never forget how loud it was. I considered getting a newer beetle, knowing that it was the swan song for them. Couldn't get a dark green one that came with the baby moons. So then a 2018 V6 Passat was the next one I was interested in. It Sold before I could get it, and that was the end of V6's for Passat production. So ended up with a 2019 V6 Impala. Scott needs a Gumby too. a tiny piece of Velcro on windshield to attach Gumby.
Hi Pat, Happy to read you enjoy this "Neat Beetle" :-) Thank you for viewing and sharing, Lou
Growing up in the 70s, VW Beetles were everywhere! And as I've mentioned before, we had 3 (Not at the same time) when I was a kid. The engine sound brings back memories, and so does the cabin. None of our Beetles had the package shelf between the dash and peddles, however. I also rode in the compartment between the engine and back seat.
Hi Michael, Happy to read this car sounds brings back memories of your cars :-) In hind site that is probably the worst place we could sit, and WE LOVED IT! Thank you for viewing and sharing, Lou
...you're right, Michael...VW via market research found that Americans thought the parcel shelf odd...so they didn't feature it on U.S.- bound Beetles...
...not sure if Canadian cars had it...and, of course, particularly in Britain, but also on the Continent, consumers valued the shelf for a place to keep snacks and other items within hand's reach...
Is it because of the sound of the air cooled beetle or the 1930s design of the automobile my Volkswagen or could it be the generation in America that picked up on it and it now continues to live on in our mind
@@ronaldhadley7129 ...all of the above...😉😎
Loved hot wheels and Johnny Lightening cars as well. Had many and still do. Reminds me of Herbie the Lovebug. My step father made dune buggies out of a lot of VWs and Corvairs.
Hi Debbie, Happy to read you have fun small scale cars, and glad this one reminds you of Herbie :-) Sounds like your Step Father knows how to have some fun with a good Dune Buggy ride :-) Lou
Lou, I haven't seen a VW in detail for decades. I really enjoyed-well, I always love your videos! Thank you!
Hi JON, Thought one was well done, so glad you enjoy this one with me :-) You're welcome, Lou
Very nice Beetle! Truly an icon.
The Trunk & Treats (or should I say Frunk & Treats) are great and a lot of fun.
Great review as always - thanks!
Hi Jeff, Happy to read you enjoy this "Icon" :-) You're right, "Frunk & Treats". You're welcome, Lou
when i was growing up teenagers loved the vw bug vans and the attempt at a pickup in fla these bugs would go anywhere at the beach and it seemed a dollars worth of gas would last a month lol
Hi scrappy junk, Ahhhh, good times :-) Lou
Had A VW beetle in high school, was a great car, dependable and wouuldt mind getting another one.
Hi Chris, Happy to read this car brings back memories of your car :-) Thank you for viewing and sharing, Lou
Parking lamps on top of fender came in the 12 volt upgrade in late 66 and 67. Loved my 74 SunBug my first Beetle was a 65
Hi Chuck, Thank you for sharing your knowledge. Happy to read you had some Beetles too :-) Lou
I love his shirt. I had a 1970 bug one time, wish I still had it. The old VWs were great. Good video Lou!
Hi Gary, Happy to read you had a Bug too :-) Fun shirt :-) Glad you enjoy this video, Lou
This one reminds me of a beetle of the same era I saw at a show that was called "the creamsicle because it was a white orange tu tone... A very cool and gorgeous color!!
Happy to read you think this car is "very cool" :-)
Hi, Lou! My parents got a used 1960 Beetle when they were first married, then had a 1966 Beetle, which they bought new. As Scott says, there's nothing quite like it, and I would have to agree that nothing sounds quite like it either. I've read one observer say it sounds like a lawn mower. Yeah, I'd say it does! LOL! Thanks to both of you for this leisurely ride through the park.
P.S. I have to wonder where the bison came from. I don't suppose they are native to the area.
Hi iswc27, Happy to read this one brings back memories of your Parents Beetles. Where did the Bison come from? Buffalo Grove? :-) Lou
...EVERYONE has a personal story about a Type 1 "Beetle" during their youth...my good friend Kevin Yeaman and I would sit in the rear cargo bin together...(tight squeeze) of his mom's '64...in
Bahama Blue (which was more a light celery green)...and it did have the standard 1200çc which produced a paltry 57 horsepower....and reduced even further on the high plains of Southeast Wyoming...you had to be aware of crosswinds which could easily carry it off the highway and into a pasture with Herfords, Angus...and occasionally bison...
...research question for you Lou...since there are bison in Elgin, do they have bison in Buffalo Grove, as well??
...Scott clearly loves his bugs...
...oh, one final tidbit...those tiny bulbs under the headlamp lenses were "running lamps" used in European cities which prohibited head lamps in their the city centers to reduce glare for people who lived in street-level apartments/houses...and irritated those dining in sidewalk cafes...
...and thanks for the final "beep-beep"...😉🐞👍😎o
Hi G Clark Bloomfield, Happy to read this one brings back memories of your Friends Beetle. Don't recall seeing Buffalo in Buffalo Grove. I agree, Scott's "Got the Bug" :-) Thank you for sharing your knowledge on the "running lamps", Lou
@@loucostabileand G Clark Bloomfield, Yep, I "Got the Bug" when I was 17 and I have had it for almost 43 years since. It's a disease. I got my first Bug when a guy pulled his '68 Bug into the full-service pump at the gas station I was working at when I was 17. I said "Nice Bug". He said "Want to buy it?" $125.00 later and I was on my way. A couple months later I came across a '67 for $50.00 and bought it. You know what guys? I think I over-paid for that one... Thanks for the trip down memory lane Lou and G Clark!
I want one! One of my favorite cars of all time!!!! 😁✌️👍
Happy to read this is a favorite of yours :-)
Beautiful Beetle. My fascination and love for VW's started at an early age. My uncle had 2 Beetles and a 21 or 23 window Bus all at the same time in the early 70's. The sound of the engine and smell of the Beetle og interior lingers in my fond memories 😊
Hi David, Happy to read this car brings back memories of your fascination for this car :-) Thank you for viewing and sharing, Lou
Muy bonito está ese Bettle (o “Vocho" como le conocen bastante en Mexico) de 1965, y con esa combinación de colores en blanco y gris lo hacen ver bastante elegante. Parece ser, que es el mismo modelo que produjo la firma “Johnny Lightning". Tiene hasta el mismo sticker en la capota del motor! Como anécdota, en el minuto casi 7:00, te desviaste solo un momento, de filmar el vehículo, para mostrarnos esos hermosos y sorprendentes búfalos. ¡Excelente vídeo, y saludos!

The only kind of VW I like are air cooled motors ones his in remarkable condition for being in IL I remember playing slug bug as a kid
Hi Larry, I've had a few sore arms from "Slug Bug" :-) Lou
I owned a 1965 VW Beetle from new. Color SeaBlue. 1200cc engine. Back in the day when you went to the gas station an attendant would pump the gas. While on vacation with a suitcase in the frunk I stopped for gas. The attendant would often pump gas with the intention of making an even dollar sale. This meant overfilling. After leaving the station and well down the road I smelled gas. I stopped and looked in the trunk. Suitcase reeked of gas. That’s why the attendant made an even $2.00 sale.
Another beetle quirk was that in really cold weather you needed an ice scraper for the windshield. The inside of the windshield. The air cooled engine could barely keep itself warm in sub zero temperature. I think in Europe a gas powered heater was available. P.S. Back in the day I don’t ever recall seeing a Beetle with a roof rack.

9:07 I remember being a little kid in the mid 60's and riding in that space behind the rear seat and over the engine in my folk's Beetle. Mum thought it was safer than the backseat (no seat belts of course!). As always Lou, thanks for the great memories!
Hi Roy, Probably the most dangerous place to sit, and yet, we LOVED IT :-) Lou
Yep! I did that plenty of times in our blue 67 Beetle, and possibly the black 60 before it. Furthermore, I don't remember ever riding in a baby/toddler car seat. I do remember, probably at 2 and 3, standing in the front and back seat of our red 1966 Galaxie we briefly had, and probably the white 67 Ford Custom 500 that replaced it. A toddler standing in the seat! That wouldn't fly today!
Very cool owner and car! Thanks Lou!

Almost all VW dealerships will have a Beetle on the showroom floor.The cult continues
When I see one on the highway or TV “I’ll say to my wife look a Beetle!”
Nice :-)
The last VW beetle’s produced in Mexico are bringing up to $50,000 in the United States. Volkswagen should continue to follow up of the cult classic and have production continue in another country such as Mexico and reap the rewards of this phenomenon
So how did the two tone paint come about?
