    Tip for Hunter on the battery mount. The mount should go across the other way on the battery so it can NEVER touch both post in an emergency the battery moves at all. ✌️

    • @mikekraan823
      @mikekraan823 7 місяців тому +9

      That's good advise. Probably the issue was the battery being so close to the fuel tank. You really don't want the battery strap puncturing that.

    My sister had a VW bug. My Dad was working on it. and said it would go back together faster if he could cuss in German. We knew he could cuss in German, because he was a POW from May 10, 1944 until the end of the war. We did end up making a sand rail out of it years later.

    Paul and Michelle, I enjoy watching your channel so much. Those boys crack me up while they are working. It's like watching my boys while they are in the shop working on their stuff. Hunter has grown so much since he started working with Paul. Paul seems like he has the patience of a saint. Grandma Lollie is my hero. She says what she thinks and she gives those boys what for. Michelle is a beauty. I love that Paul has his boys working with him. It is just a great family show and I hope it continues forever.I wish we were going to Glampus with you guys but I am old and live in Texas and my hubby says "are nut nuts" think of the miles. That made me believe we have gotten too old because in our younger years it would not have been a problem. You guys enjoy life while you can and I will live vicarious thru watching ya'll. Be careful and have a great time on the sand dunes.

    almost always enjoy your videos and the sandrail ones more so because it's the closest thing to a Kart you have. I used to race Karts in Ontario (Plus, Sanaire, Quebec and Clayton New York) decades ago. I was the first female racing in the National Capital Kart Club (Ottawa, Ontario, Canada). I drove a Swiss Hutless. One of my best finishes was third in the nationals.
    I also used to help my buddy who is an engine rebuilder, so I'm able to follow what you guys are doing, most of the time. I've learned some about transmissions, axles and rearends thanks to your videos! (And a little watching Chad and less so Matt). I've also learned a little fabrication from watching Robbie, but appreciate his channel more for the paint and style work. Matt''s is more about a little of everything, depending on which video you watch. You guys are fabricators with bonuses!
    I appreciate your video style. You've got a great bunch of people there!
    Take good care while you go all out on those sandrails.
    (I'm a Swiss-Canadian, so you get Swiss hearts)

    I got a yankem rope a couple of weeks ago and got my loaded semi stuck in New Mexico sand. The rope pulled me out, but sadly the rope broke 😢 [we tied the rope back together] to be fair the rope was pulling 60,000 lbs out of sand it also had to turn my rig around and back to good road.
    We beat that rope up and the rope was only rated for an f250.
    I have nothing bad to say about the product. I also will keep that rope and use it again. Great product Yankem

    This video brings back a lot of memoriesWhen I was about 17, we went to a hillclimb in Kamloops where we saw a vw dunebuggy similar to the sandrail. We had a VW. The body came off. We drove it around like that for a while and then we scavenged most pieces of metal we could find to build a roll cage. We shortened the frame by 18" by cutting the tunnel and welding it together with an old welder. when we got it running we used to drive it in the local fields and back trails. Bits and pieces would come off because my welding skills were suspect. We managed to kill the engine several times. The police used to wait at the corner to our road, however they never caught us because we could go through the back way. It was a great way to learn how to cobble parts together and work on cars.

    When I lived in Denver I bought a 68 Volkswagen with an auto-stick and a blown engine. I was going to make it into a Baja Bug but the body was so nice so I just fixed it up. A roommate and I pulled the engine in the apartment parking lot and carried it up to the third floor. I tore it down on the balcony and reassembled it in the kitchen. Then back down the stairs and into the bug. It went from 1500 to a 1600.

    I can't wait to see how you're going to get everything to Glamis. How many trucks and trailers and how creative you're going to stack them.

    I love seeing you treat Hunter like another son. Busting each other's chops and poking fun like old friends while learning from each other. 😂😂
    Reminds me of myself and my boys.

    Paul, after you get 1 or 2 turbos on it, put a set of slicks on it and take it to the drag strip!

    Hey, Hunter, it looks like you selected some thick enough strapping for the battery hold down. The whole rail could be demolished and the battery would still be attached. You must have added at least 5 pounds to the overall weight.😊

      Eh, better than nothing. These air cooled VW's didn't have oil filters originally, just a mesh screen in the bottom for the oil pickup.

    As a VW enthusiast with a Baja bug and a sand rail I would love some more info on the fuel injection system on Paul’s Rig. I realize you are in a hurry so maybe when things settle down you can run through the specs and share the info on the manifold and Holley system. Curious with no manifold heat how well that sniper system works. Looking forward to the Glamis videos!

    Don't forget to put antifreeze in the radiator before you go to Glamis. I always used to run Oberg oil filters on all of my VWs. They are reusable screen type oil filters, and they act like an oil cooler, too. After new parts went into the case. the Oberg filter would always trap the loose metal. It is always a good idea to blueprint the oil pump with a piece of thick glass and some fine emery paper.

    We used to use old 6v starters. They crank crazy fast and last just as long as a 12v . They don't crank long enough to burn up.😊
