  • When we got this vintage 1974 VW Super Beetle, We thought it was in much better condition! In this episode, we dive deep into the heart of restoration by splitting the iconic body from the floor pan. Witness the meticulous process of removing and repairing decades of wear and tear, bringing this classic beauty back to its former glory. From rusted panels to fresh paint, every step is a labor of love. Don't miss a moment of this restoration saga that combines craftsmanship and passion for automotive history!
    I bought this car honestly with the intentions of doing minor repairs and just driving it. When we got it home and were able to get the car up in the air we saw a lot more problems than we were first able to see. With that being said this has turned into a full blown build and I plan on videoing the entire process so buckle up and get ready for the end result.

    Good video, removing the body is definitely the way to go. So glad i did it with mine, makes it so much easier to renew everything. Its a long road but worth doing.

      This ones in decent shape but I've heard it's not fun to do! I was thinking the Frame Head was rough but it turns out it's all in great shape. Im just doing floor pans L,R and Heaters Channels L,R and cleaning up the rest/ painting before putting it all back together

    Never heard of a Super Beetle , what's the difference ?

    • @mikedeschamps

      The way the suspension is setup. Regular beetle has a Front Beam with shocks. Super beetle has struts that bolt onto the body. There's more differences but that's the main one
