I love making stuff! 80’s skater punk meets 4” angle grinder. We are doing it home made for the underdog. Join us for adventures in car restoration, fabrication, life lessons, philosophy and even some barn find hunting! We play with custom VW’s but love vintage treasures of ALL types…
Cruise in the Black 69 VW Beetle with us!
Today's episode is an example of a typical day in our never boring lives! Follow along @thepunkrockgarage for 3 cold starts on the 92 VW Rabbit Cabriolet, the 67 Orange VW hot rod and the 69 Black VW convertible. We'll take it for a drive through Mike's childhood neighborhood of Riverside and Danville PA...then park it in storage for the winter.
Thank you for the neighborly storage Kathy...we so appreciate it!
Mountain Biking is so fun at our local trails...get outside!

Is that a Ddk emblem I see on the Vert? Very cool, and I love the idea of the flag on the one carb cover.
Hay buddy where do you get the rear disc brakes from thanks 😊
Nice😁
Watching paint dry is more exciting than watching you learn how to drive ! 😂
@@billydankert1764 🤪
I had a 68 and during the record cold in michigan it was the only car that started every time.
Mike Senior has no problem doing standing burnouts in front of my house. He is not missing that line lock.
Too bad you live so far away bro. It would be a blast for us to work on a dub!
Any time!
I had a '70 beetle with similar mods, except the front beam was not narrowed. Still, kicked A$$ back in the early 80's
Had one pretty much like this one back in the day.....eye-searing yellow.
I just replaced my original alternator last year and it was probably 20 years old as well 😅
@@ddk56vw right!
Super cooool Bug bro and VW collection! I bought a 1980 Scirocco S in college in 1984 until 88. I loved that car.
Thanks SO MUCH!
🤘🤘🤘
Wow, that truck is for sure a Cali lifetime original truck that has never been painted. You can see the layers of paint down to the sheet metal. So F'n cool. Great find. You and I are quite the same. I was born in 64 and my first car was a 72 beetle. I have had one ever since and today own a 56, 65 and a 69 long travel baja. I build my own engines and paint my own cars. the 56 has a 2165, k10 cam, 48s and heads hand ported in the 80s by Dick Neuss. He and Berg were buddies. I just installed some CMI Billet 1.5 ratio roller rockers for it and I highly recommend them. Amazing piece of work and seat of the pants power increase to 7500 rpm. You know the deal! Keep the vids coming, you are doing great. More in car full throttle rips. can't get enough. If you remember, can you reply with the gear ratios of each gear and ring and pinion on the orange bug? It sounds like it is geared perfectly.
Hey! I really appreciate the feedback. It has been a fun life and I am grateful to share our passion. I know the orange car runs a 3.88 but will have to dig to get you the gear stack. It works flawlessly in the quarter hitting 7Kish at the stripe. Runs around 3600rpm cruising around in 4th...We are planning some new footage of engine revving fun in all of the cars! Thanks again.
what a nice bus to start with !
@@DanTheManIOM makes an east coast guy like me tremble 😝
Thanks Mike, Melissa, Dave, and Lucky🥰
That bus doesn't even need welding compared to east coast VW's haha.
@@ProwagenPer4mance so so true!
You’re going to make it a 21 Window? Should be fun
@@bava67 it’s at the shop getting the roof openings pressed in factory right now 😎
LS swap the 🌎! Any good mtb while you're there? Nice socks btw! 🍔 🍔 🍔
Thanks for watching dude!🤘🏽
Zelda’s home!
More VW make over
Check out our new video for another makeover!
I liked the summarized, fast tracked video of the mouse urine fix. It put it all together and gave the "Cool!" factor at the end. 😉
Awesome buggy!!!
Thanks 👍
Hello from California! I am new to your channel. Glad that I found you as I am a VW nut myself... Keep up the awesome work! Looking forward to watching more videos!
Hey there! I really appreciate your views! We are having a ton of fun sharing our experiences! Actually headed to California today to work on a friends bus this week. Stay tuned!
@@thepunkrockgarage awesome! Have to warn you tho.. It's Really hot here!! Lol today, 105 here in Modesto😳😛
love the videos man, it’s been a bit since i’ve checked in but the quality is so much higher, and the vw’s look great
Oh man! Thanks SO MUCH for the feedback! We are having fun and learning a whole new world. Check in because we are leaving for California to work on a friends 1965 bus. Should be radical 😝✌🏼
the rubber around the wire is made with peanut oil to keep the rubber soft mice love it
Maybe I’ll give it a taste! 😝 That’s actually a real cool fact! Thanks SO MUCH for watching and commenting. ✌🏼
Great video Mike & Melissa. One criticism, seeing as you say you like them 😂 the title and thumbnail for the vid is for the cabrio, but all the footage is of the GTV bug.
😬
You are going to love driving the bug across country. I know I did!
I’m definitely a bit intimidated too😳
Are the. Engines for VW bugs stil available
Plenty of parts available and lots of great engine builders!
First, I think it’s cool to see someone on here from the Cal Look Lounge. And second, Punk Rock Garage? What’s not too like about that? Keep the videos coming.
Hey! Thanks for checking it out! I’m looking forward to posting some cal look ride along content!
Love the deck lid on the vert, very smart
Thanks so much, it’s my favorite part of the car!
I really love the lip/ridge on the edge of each fender and the hood scoop. Really cool car.
Thanks! I sure love the same stuff!
Intro is fantastic! Blown away-You are sponsored! For what it’s worth, the wheels are amazing!
Much appreciated!
Cant wait to see what you do with the 67!
Digging your fab skills bro! We gotta get some stone and the skid loader over there!
Thanks for the down to earth approach and showing the fun stuff! Pretty easy to get lost in the stuff that goes wrong.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Hands down the best thing about a restored beetle is the door closing smoothly!!! 😀 Loving the content! Keep it coming!
Latest episode is great, especially like the outro haha. Only issue I see is max resolution is 360p which is pretty low quality for new devices. Keep up the great work!!
Thanks for the feedback! Where can I see and resolve this issue? We thought we uploaded and filmed in the highest quality setting we had but possibly not?
@@thepunkrockgarage I think when you upload the video it will ask you what quality. If you had the video on one phone and sent it to another, or sent it in an email that can reduce the quality too.
We feel the emotion when you speak about your dream... your mid life crisis car! It's the projects that keep us moving forward. Mine is to build my KG 67 with turbo engine to be a Drag and Drive car in the 10".
Love that! Do it!
You're inspiring me to attempt my Duster project.
You can do it!
Oh cool! Boy the Blue sounds amazing!
Good call on the speedster color! Love it! ❤
Thank you!
Iron City Hard Core member here. Now in NH. Probably nearing 60 VWs (of different badges) owned in my time. I just started with an intro short. Wife is running a '68 Ghia as a daily. You're doing great.
Thank you 😊
Nice job with the editing. Music, high speed dubbing, your learning fast. Fun to watch and learn.
Thank you 🤗
Man math you see.... All the money you have spent on the car, you actually could have bought a ferrari 😅
Ha! So true! 😵💫
how did you install the bullet mirrors i bought a set and have the original mirror hole for my 73
The 67 doesn’t have factory holes in the doors. The factory mirrors were originally on the door hinge until 68.
Oh okay makes sense so did you have to drill holes and did you bolt it in through were the door glass is behind door panel?
Exactly! A bit of a pain in the rear but worth it in my opinion.
Hmmmmm
I didn't even know this full story! Wish I'd seen one of the time trials. :)
There’s a video posted of the drag strip in the description
always a sucker for an orange beetle, but not in the way of a 356
Thanks!
Skull skates
🤘🏼
Love it Mike! Love the stickers in the orange car! Z-Flex…. Skull skates! Keep up the good work!
Thanks for checking it out! Come drive the orange car, your Mustang 5.0 started my whole problem 😂
