Nice Super. Love the paint.
@@charlesloar3210 Thanks! I like it too. Although it could use a refresh, especially after I scratched it from rubbing too hard when was cleaning it up! But I just recently saw a similar colored bug that had the same wheels as mine, but the centers where painted to match. I really liked the look and think I might do the same. I was considering painting them black, but the blue looked so good! 👍
I like it, you probably will have to get a plumbing snake for that clog shouldn't cost much
@@beckyevans3999 I have a plan, however it's freezing right now and my plan involves water. So I have to wait for things to warm back up a bit. 👍
Very cool, my brother's got one with a plasma table that's pretty sweet😊
@@shainbloom9802 I want get a table, but I need to get my shop first! 👍
Great video, anxious to hear how the spoke thread cutter works. I bought a $20 bore scope camera from Amazon that hooks to my phone. It’s amazing how many uses I’ve found for the little camera.
@@paullopinto2777 I have a few ideas for upcoming bike videos. My bike videos seem to do the best, so I'm considering upping the frequency on them...give the fans more of what they want. Lol However I don't want the channel to become 1 dimensional. But I will definitely feature the spoke threader in an upcoming video. 👍
Well bummer dude, looks like a nice wedding and the resort looks fancy. Back in my drinking days I would have got my money’s worth if it was available lol.
@@paullopinto2777 We did have a great time on most of the trip. And I don't want to sound whiny or give the impression we didn't have fun. There are just a few things I wish I'd understood better and I would have taken advantage of what was available to me. I honestly wouldn't change too much about the trip overall. Just a few specific details I would modify and do a little different. 🙂
I would love to go. Iowa nobody bikes no parts no swaps.
@@stewart4711 Man that's a bummer! Maybe you should try and get some friends together and get some bikes and do some rides. Get some interest and organize a show/swap meet! Sometimes waiting for someone else to do something, nothing ever materializes. So you gotta take things into your own hands and make it happen! 👍 There are other bigger shows down in Oregon and California, but I have not been able to make them....yet. 🙂
3:15 1965 Schwinn Super Deluxe Stingray what an awesome bike
Have fun in Mexico bro, and if you happen to find yourself in phoenix for whatever reason feel free to reach out.
@@paullopinto2777 hahahaha will do! 😎🤟
Sometimes if u leave that 10% ethanol gas in it for too long it can be a issue for the carburetor
@@midwest1100 don't I know it?! I had a little dirt bike for my daughter years ago that i kicked and kicked until I wore myself out! Only to realize the gas had gone bad.... I drained the almost full tank and put new gas in and bam! Fired right up first kick! Lol 🤦♂️🙄
Happy late Thanksgiving Jeff mine was spent in hospital. Don't know what's wrong yet still doing some tests. But I'm home.
@@beckyevans3999 thank you Becky! I hope you find the answers and get feeling better soon! 🙂
Cool stuff where you from ?
@@derekcorreia9692 Thanks! I'm up in the PNW.
Cool stuff
@@markmoffett6813 thanks, I agree! When I was young I never imagined I'd still being playing with toys and bikes and stuff in my 50s! But I never imagined I wouldn't either. 😉👍
Lovely pickup thats a weird bike
Yes it is and that's why I had to have it! Fortunately for me, it was a friend that had it and he gave my a pretty good deal. 😊
Shaping up nicely bro. Keep it up.
@@paullopinto2777 thank you! I appreciate it!
Keep the vids coming.
Nice bug. i just bought a '74 super beetle after 35 years since my last. Getting restored now. Can't wait to post pics. Thanks GBS Kerrville, TX
@@1Rooster338 that's awesome! My first bug was a white 65 with a sunroof, all original and ran great, that I got for 500 bucks! I 100% regret letting that go! But I'm hoping to add an early 60s bug ,maybe next year! 😎🤟
love this vw engines... the simplicity and durability is just out of this world. Keep buggin my friend. Be well always😊✌️
@@tiyukitv6508 Thank you, I appreciate it! Yes the old air cool V-dubs are pretty awesome! I have Luna, a Bus and a dune buggy I'll be doing a video on soon, plus something else in the works! So stay tuned! 👍🙂
Your channel so do what you please. Real ones will follow.
These cars are amazing, that is a great collection of bugs, VOCHO as in Mexico said the people when the VW Sedan was build in VW Factory in Puebla, Mexico, this incredible car ran in the streets as a bunch, a car with personality as no other I've saw ever. Incredible collection thank you for share with us dude, Awesome channel I am your follower 1 month ago.
@@hwarrior_ryder3624 thank you I really appreciate it! Yes VWs are really fun cool little cars! My fiance loves Luna and I think shes pretty much going to take her from me once I fix all the little things! Lol So I need to get another one, preferably and early to mid 60s! 👍 Stay tuned for my next video...I'll be getting my dune buggy going. Carly says that one is hers too. I may protest that! 😀
please try the jumer cable. then you can put a gound strap from the block to the chassis. see how it runs different every time you start it? cause the 2 endfs of the 'y' where the motor mounts , starting it twists the connerction and gets a grund but once you drive it a ways. tHE GROUND WILL GET BAD AND THE MOTOR WILL DIE.
@@junqtaylor5652 I will definitely check that out a get the ground right! 👍
your probably going to say. Oh it can't be that, whats wrong is the engin hs lost its ground. To prove this to yourself just put a jumper cablefrom the neg battery post to like the base of the distributor clamp. see if then it runs fine.
@@junqtaylor5652 I won't say anything like it can't be this or that. I appreciate any input and information! I agree that the ground could be causing problems for me and infact I think that is probably a big problem on my dune buggy as well! I'm definitely guilty of forgetting to make sure my ground is good! I'll be the first to admit I'm not a pro mechanic and everything I do is trial and error, emphasis on the error! Lol So I definitely appreciate any good tips or reminders like yours, thank you! I hope you enjoy my videos and I'll do another update on Luna soon but I'll be on the dune buggy next and the bus soon and I have a big project coming very soon so stay tuned! 👍😉
I'd also love to see a video on LED headlights conversion for a bug
Is it possible to put universal electric windows motor in a bug and if so, can you do a video on that
@@siphamandlagiftmbewu8081 thank you for you comments, I appreciate it! I don't know if there are electric window motors small enough to fit it the door of a bug. The doors are no more than about 2 inches thick. Honestly I never even thought about it, but you do have me curious. I will have to do some research. As far as the LED headlights, I'm sure that would be easy enough on a 12v bug. If you had a 1966 or older that had not been update from the original 6v system it might be a bigger challenge. I have some electrical issues, specifically with the lights to resolve yet, but once I do so I just may look into updating the lights on Luna. I think that would look really good on her. However, on my next bug I'm hoping to get an early 60s and I will be keeping it more original. 🙂👍
Just to follow up....you absolutely can get electric windows for your bug! Like I said, I hadn't even thought about it. Mainly because a bug is pretty narrow and I can reach the window crank on the passenger side pretty easily. But my fiance doesn't have the long monkey arms that I do! Lol So I might think about getting them for Luna, but it will have to wait until I get some other priorities worked out. I promise that if I do add electric windows, I will most definitely do a video on it. But I hope you will watch my other videos and enjoy them as well! 🙂
Nice AMC javelin!

Good job mister Jeff oh if anyone reads this other than jeff like and subscribe he needs to reach 500 subs by December as do I
@@therapeutic-sawdust 😀 Thanks mister Therapeutic! I appreciate that! 👍
One of these days I’d like to see one of my old vw’s pop up. More specifically the camper or the full custom bug that it traded for the camper. Glad you got Luna going with little effort and $$ spent.
3…2….1……😂
@@sergiyyatsyuk4683 😉😀
Heck yeah, can’t wait for more updates. Gonna be great. Too bad it’s multiple states away, I know a half assed concrete guy😂
@@paullopinto2777 I could definitely use a concrete guy, but I prefer my concrete to be full ass! 😜🤣🤣🤣
I like the video, I like where you're going with your content! Keep up the good work Buddy😊
@@shainbloom9802 thanks I appreciate that!
schwinn continental , super sport
Seatac show?
@@marknielsen7995 yes sir, that's the one! Were you there?
I was there as well
Hey brother your eagle pedals are peragrine pedals. I have a set. Like your vid’s. I started building bmx stuff when Covid hit us here in nyc. Cheers 😊
@@MichaelRizzi-l8x right on man, thank you! Yeah I love the bmx world but definitely have lots to learn! Hopefully my videos are entertaining but also show some stuff that folks may not know or may not have ever seen or seen in a long time. But if i can also learn some good information, I am all for it! 👍😎
@@Areanorth40-vg21x yes that’s awesome man. I rode flatland back in 86,87 then dropped out and became a musician but I have fully jumped back in since I retired and have bin building bikes. I do have lots of parts that you would love,I aquimulated lots of stuff fro trades that I really have no use for if you want anything it’s free of charge man, always looking out for a good bmx brother. I’m in Long Island ny. Are you on fbook? I’m Michael nitetrain rizzi and are in many fbook freestyle groups. Cheers man sorry for the long rant lol
I can see the chevrons in the video on the bars. Nice bikes!
@@1sh1kll91 yes very briefly the light hits just right. I'm glad you enjoyed the video! 😎👍
Been enjoying your videos buddy, keep up the good work!
@@shainbloom9802 thanks Shain! I appreciate that! 🤟
Cool bicycles
Bummer about the tire. Good work!!
@@paullopinto2777 yeah it was a bummer since it was brand new, however it was under warranty and only cost my 25 bu8to mount and balance the new one. 😎👍
Great job man
@@sergiyyatsyuk4683 thank you! I appreciate it! 😎
More bikes ❤
More bikes. I love this channel. I love these old bikes and I caught the very end of the cool part of BMX before big box stores saturated the market with foreign made cheap parts. I never had anything cool, huffys and trash. My buddy had a diamondback that I coveted. I love the old mongoose stuff too. I ride street these days on the modern super light, fat wheel, bmxs. And I use an old legion remake painted pink with (unfortunately) remake mag wheels for my trail bike. Anyway
How many bikes you think he has?
I stopped counting when I got to 100! 🤣
Always learning new after watching his videos.
Cool video and sick swap meet, wish we had a fun community like you do in your town. I thought I was the only one who swap nicer looking parts out on my older stingrays.
Thank you! Yes there are a few bicycle groups area here. I'm into the old stuff like you see in this video, but also older bmx stuff. Also motorcycles mini bike cars trucks, you name it! I'm glad you liked this video and I hope enjoy the other ones! 😎
Looks like a fun show. I don’t believe that you are fully over your brother trading in that truck though, you mentioned it 3 times lol. Still a little bitter 😂
Hahahaha yeah I was definitely butt hurt! And both my brother and I come from a long line of grudge holders! But he knows my sence of humor too and knows I was just messing with him in the video! Lol
Nice video Jeff slow falling in love with old cars
Thanks Sergiy! Yes older vintage cars trucks bicycles and whatever else...boats tractors, anything mechanical! It's the best! I don't always know everything about all of it, but it's so much more interesting to me than anything modern where you can barely tell one car from another. And then when the do make something stand out as unit, it hideous! Like that ugly "mindcraft" Tesla truck. Lol
I like klunker bike... I'm from thailand...
Thank you! And welcome! Stay tuned...I will be doing a video on a Klunker build soon! I have a few frames to choose from. I may even build 2 or 3 in one video. I have a few other videos coming out first but maybe in late July or early August. But I do have some other good bicycle content, including my latest video. Check it out....😎
Nice stuff , I’m mostly into BMX right now but wanting to get into the older 20” Schwinn
Thanks man! I appreciate it. Check out my latest video, I do some bmx stuff. I intend on doing more, higher end bmx in the future aswell but I'll still have schwinn stuff too, 20" 24" and 26". It's a love/hate hobby. I love messing with all these bikes, but man it can be frustrating when everything is just a little different than the next! Like all the different nuts and bearings and seat posts and and and......😀
@@Areanorth40-vg21x I just converted a 26” Huffy cruise to 20” wheels . Had to raise the bottom bracket,chain just clears lower tube . Next I have to weld in a pipe for calliper brakes . And looking for motorcycle handle bars . Besides the cruiser bars it almost rides like a BMX . Is there any way I can send you pictures
Sounds very ambitious! I would like to see it for sure. However I'm not sure how to upload pictures in the comments.
I used to have a 66 26 inch schwinn beach cruiser modified into a lowrider 144 spoke RIMS twisted bent fork all chrome mud guards spare wheel mount pedals hit the ground scrapping and sparking it was all there crazy looking lights and audio system
Nice! Bikes are totally cool cuz you can do almost everything you can with a car as far as personalizing them, but way less money! 😀
DID YOU SAY SPACELINER?
Possibly! Lol I do have a couple.. I intend on keeping one but I'm going to start selling several bikes. I've gone a little too crazy with them and my back yard looks like a bicycle bone yard! Lol
@@Areanorth40-vg21x schwinn continental, super sport
Bummer about the Camaro. Looks expensive to fix honestly even doing the work yourself. Good luck.
Yes it will be if I try. My friend Darryl wants to go out and see it for himself in person. I'm not sure but I think he has some ideas. So we're gonna go out and have another look this Saturday. We shall see. Either way I'm going to make a definite decision on whether or not to keep it or move it on! My heart wants to keep it but my brain says "money pit!" Lol
VP Autoparts has floorpans and basically everything else you'd need for the Amazon, they ship from Sweden though so it may be expensive
Thank you for the tip! 👍
