Looks exactly the same as my neighbours car back on the low 1980’s. Tried to buy it as he was over 80 but he wouldn’t. So I bought a 1959 model. Awesome car, but had to sell it as had a kid and no seatbelts.
I had a 68 1500 12volt for 13 years. To this day I rate it as the best all round, rugged, and most reliable car I have owned. I deeply regret selling it.
I, too, bought my first car when I was 18. It was when I had just turned 18 and got my driver's licence. It was a model 1967 (like this one?). Anyway, it had the flat hub caps and slanted headlights (the vertical headlights were introduced on the model 1968, as were the flat bumpers). I bought the car for money earned as a farm hand, and I was sooooooo proud. :-):-). The color of mine was Lotusweiß. I, myself, am a model 1950, and the remaining growth on my head is about the same color as that which I see on your avatar. :-)
Beautiful old car. It pretty much just needed a good wash and polish as it was stored in a nice barn and was in great condition to start with. I love it 😊
I don’t think so, the barn is dusty, not damp. The paint has blemishes consistent with that sort of storage. Obviously the car was in good condition when it was stored. A car in that condition would more than likely have body seals in good condition beetles are reasonably air tight hence lack of dust in the interior. A good find and happy to see it cleaned up and hopefully back on the road soon.
Wow!!! Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful !!! Good job!!! Congratulations!!! Here in Brasil, its name is Fusca. I learned to drive with it and I bought my very first Fusca in 1978 (it was manufactured in 1970) and it has only 10 thousand kilometers at that time... new tires and I went to the beach!!! The colour was beige. I loved my Fusca!!! ❤❤❤
Thank you for sharing. I used to work on 1300-1800 cc V Dub engines. Rebuilt one down to the crankshaft and out. It took me two months and some new tools but afterward, it screamed. This is a beaut. With new oil and gas, filters, plugs, and a valve adjustment, I can hear her purr right now.
I bought a '67 VW Beetle 1300 a few years ago. The car is in amazing, original condition. I'm only removing a few "embellishments" from the previous owners to restore it to the condition it was in when it was delivered. Great video 😊👍
A truly remarkable find. Great on the cosmetics, but I was disappointed not to see a mechanical overhaul done. Is there more to come, hopefully? I’d love to see it being driven under its own power, an even more impressive conclusion…
I’ve had 3 Beetles, a Jetta, 2 Golf’s - one a GTI. My first VW a 1968 1500 Beetle was the most fun, even compared to the GTI. Great vid - would love to have that Beetle. Thanks for the memories!
That's an amazing barn find...1966 Seasand beetle with Platinum Mosaic interior in mint condition...not many left in the world looking like that....thanks for sharing it! I hope you can preserve it without modifications...
Absolutely gorgeous! The way that thing cleaned up is a testament to the quality of the factory paint and everything else. That car looks like it’s a year old.
Unfortunately, they don't make 'em like that any more. That,s what I think we should be making now instead of all these electric pieces of crap. I owned a couple of those old "Bugs" back in the day. They were "bullet proof"!
It's an absolute dream of a barn find!! All original complete cleaned up very nicely, and them Swedish accessories are the cherry on this Kaefer. Super cool, don't change a thing on it.😍😍😛
I'm a mechanic and I watched this video to see you get it running. I love seeing what ideas people have to get them going. I tediously watched this whole video waiting for the engine part. It never came. So sad
Our family had a beetle like this when I was a child. I remember the sound of the seats when they would clunk back into place. What a lucky find. It looks as though it's been repainted. The fender seals would have been black and not body colored.
This car brought back some memories. I had a 1966 VW Beetle 1300 that I drove to Guadalajara, Mexico when I went to school there in 1971. After driving it there for few years it was stolen from in front of the house I was living at the time to never be seen again. When I bought it a VW independent mechanic check out the engine and put in slightly larger pistons. It was in effect larger than the normal 1300 and would really move being so light weight. Great fun car to drive.
Back in the day, putting slightly larger pistons in was common...and also adding an aftermarket exhaust/header, made a decent difference...just doing those two things could give you an extra 5-10hp---making a Bug a more fun car to drive. I did that to my 1962 Ghia...it really made that little car feel sporty! Some guys would go nuts, and install more powerful engines...but then the mpg would drop.
کیا بات ہے زبردست دوست 👏👏👏۔ اتنی بہترین حالت میں یہ گاڑی آپکو مل گئی بہت خوش نصیبی کی بات ہے۔ میری پسندیدہ ترین گاڑی اگر کوئی ہے تو وہ یہی والکس ویگن بیٹل ہے۔ زندہ باد میرے دوست 🙌❤🇵🇰
Well done!!! I owned a '66 years ago that I brought back to life, but nothing like this grand old lady! I found mine in an elderly persons front yard and they only wanted 250 USD for her, couldn't let that pass now could I ? Spent many pleasant hours on her, wish I still owned her. Be well and safe peace to you and yours
Brings back great memories. My first car was a 1960 beetle that I bought in 1973 Was alot of fun to drive, but the heater wasn't worth a crap😅!! Would love to have another one.
Some of those older Bugs came with gas heaters!...They were banned in the USA...But my wife's grandma owned a 1960 Corvair, that had a gas heater...It was just awesome!
In 1989 my father bought a 67 brazilian, equipped with "sport" wheels. The color was the same of this (65 ou 66?) beetle. Today i have two bugs (59 gold - good car with a not so good color - and a 56 black), but for me this color is still the most beautiful in VW catalog. Congratulations for the finding!
No.... Dirt runs off easier on a cleaner surface and if you start from the top you would rinse the chemichals away making it harder for the dirt to loosen up! You should always start from the bottom when rinsing/shooting away chemichals! When you rinse away the "handwash soap" its ok to start at the top.
i know i am a bit late to comment this but, the job that you and other people do is just, amazing! is such an way of art restore cars, it doesn't matter if is old or new, is still beautiful in the same way, and i am very happy to see the restauration of the car of my dreams here, you guys do such an amazing job, good work!
The barn that protected the Beetle all those years was kept in good repair by the owner of both. One more vintage car that'll see the road again soon enough.
The most Beautiful car " Beetle " reminds of mine 1962 which i owned from 65 - 78 and have very good memories & dream about it now and then . If given a chance would still love to own . The best ever Car producerd by Germany . Best of luck 👍
Olá, eu sou apaixonado por FUSCA e, que maravilha de vídeo, e com este polimento que você fez neste carro incrível. Parabéns e obrigado por nos mostra este lindo carro. 🇧🇷🙋♂️🚗
Que carrinho bonitinho!!!! Tive um desses ano 67, exatamente nessa cor!! Foi meu primeiro carro, muitas recordações da juventude!!! grato por compartilhar essa pequena maravilha!! Abraços do Brasil!!! 😃👏👏👏💖
My first beetle was bought new by my dad in 1968. he put 100 k miles on it, then my younger brother wore out the tires and the clutch at the same time and just walked away from it. I came along needing a cheap car so they said if you can get it running you can have it. After a new clutch and tires it was buffed up much like in this video--I did it all by hand. I drove it for ten years, eventually sold it for 1000 bucks.
What an absolutely stunning and beautiful car. I'd rather have this electrified and simple with no driver assist electronics. Than a modern car. Perfect urban runabout. ❤
This car is a once in a lifetime barn score. The condition is superb and a wonderful ride that is stock!!! Why is there no running clips? I have been a vw tinkerer for 45 years and I really would have been excited to see it run 😞
Also had a 1966 VW. It was the same color but never looked as great as this one. Can you share the name of the products you used? This was a great video so keep them coming!!
Fantastikt trevligt video, och ett bra jobb av dig. Som förvaltar ett stycke kulturhistoria både med denna bil och tidigare Saab å Volvo bilar:) Hade varit kul å få se den live. Ha en fortsatt fin sommar.
The most loved automobile ever produced, an engineering marvel in reliable simplicity, no radiator air cooled, would have to be the world's first utterly reliable car without doubt.
i agree with everything but i would say it is the second,, the utteraly reliable early ford flathead also is this way. run forever with little work even if left sitting for 60 or 70 years
Der ginge schon als Neuwagen durch. Der wurde nie verhunzt, Alles sorgsam geschutzt. Selbst die innenpolstersitze schauen aus wie neu. Da ist Dank der schon Bezuge nie etwas abgenutzt. Solch einen Käfer findet man vieleicht noch in einem Museum der noch niemals auf der Straße war. Alle Autohersteller stellen sich die ersten Wagen rüber für ins Museum.
Would have liked to have seen the shape the engine was in and how it and the electrical were working. Seems to be in pretty good shape for a "barn find".
Looks stunning, and it would be fun to drive one again. My older brother bought a 66 brand new, the one year motor, though his had a little more metallic look to the green. Back in those days there were VW Ralleys everywhere in southern California and he always entered with his 66 VW. Then he bought a new 1968 black VW drove it 2 weeks from new, pulled the motor to have it built to I believe 1935cc's, it would pull the front wheels off the ground, cool. He only had that 68 for less than 6 months when I bought a new 1969 Chevelle SS396 and blew his doors off. He retaliated by buying a new 1970 Z-28 which I am humble enough to know he was faster than I again. Miss my older brother and the things he taught me about VW's. Keep that 66 and Drive it, they are fun!!
the transformation of the Volkswagen Beetle is more than just a restoration; it is a labor of love, a testament to the passion and dedication of all those who contributed to its revival. And as the Beetle takes to the road once more, it serves as a reminder of the timeless appeal of classic cars and the enduring spirit of those who cherish them.
I bought the exact car, and color in 1963. You brought back great memories. And I’m still driving a VW today, GTI, and love it, thanks, RickGTI….. 🌴

Amazing, my first car, when I was 18 years old , was exactly the same, I honestly loved it.
Now I am already 74, great memories!!!
Same here!
Looks exactly the same as my neighbours car back on the low 1980’s. Tried to buy it as he was over 80 but he wouldn’t. So I bought a 1959 model. Awesome car, but had to sell it as had a kid and no seatbelts.

VW Beatle was burnt orange and looked like a pumpkin.
Beautiful old car. It pretty much just needed a good wash and polish as it was stored in a nice barn and was in great condition to start with. I love it 😊
Barns aren't dry. Barns have rodents. Hmmm
This wassn't a resto... it was a cleanup. The car was in pristine condition to start with.
I don’t think so, the barn is dusty, not damp. The paint has blemishes consistent with that sort of storage. Obviously the car was in good condition when it was stored. A car in that condition would more than likely have body seals in good condition beetles are reasonably air tight hence lack of dust in the interior.
A good find and happy to see it cleaned up and hopefully back on the road soon.
What a rare find...
Looked good after the wash.
Stunning after the polish.
Interior was immaculate, obviously the vehicle was cared for.
That interior is a dead giveaway that this car is NOT a barn find. The whole thing was staged.
Wow!!! Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful !!! Good job!!! Congratulations!!!
Here in Brasil, its name is Fusca.
I learned to drive with it and I bought my very first Fusca in 1978 (it was manufactured in 1970) and it has only 10 thousand kilometers at that time... new tires and I went to the beach!!!
The colour was beige.
I loved my Fusca!!! ❤❤❤
Thank you for sharing. I used to work on 1300-1800 cc V Dub engines. Rebuilt one down to the crankshaft and out. It took me two months and some new tools but afterward, it screamed. This is a beaut. With new oil and gas, filters, plugs, and a valve adjustment, I can hear her purr right now.

Beautiful Beetle in immaculate condition! You did a splendid job of cleaning it up, too. I would love to find one these. Enjoy!
What a find! Even the seats revealed after you pulled off the covers was an eye opener.
Absolutely love your restoration techniques! You make every project look so effortless. Keep up the amazing work!

Stunning Beetle. Lovely original condition. Thanks for sharing.
My very 1st car was a Beetle. I can't wait to own one of these babies again, God willing! What a find!!!
Never seen a car in that era so clean in my life especially the interior absolutely incredible
😊😊😊
It’s almost like it has been staged. Interior is immaculate with seat covers but no cover on the car? Odd.
Lindo
My thoughts exactly. Four excellent tires and a clean motor with no spiderwebs anywhere.
This is absolutely faked.
Like winning the lottery finding that car in such a great shape. Wish that was my find!! Thanks for sharing. Beautiful bug! Just lovely ❤️
It's an absolute dream of a barn find!! All original complete cleaned up very nicely, and them Swedish accessories are the cherry on this Kaefer. Super cool, don't change a thing on it.😍😍😛

I could be staged, they painted the car and put some dirt and poo on it... youtube is starting to be a "makebelieve" world for ratings...
Mudguard piping ( in yankee speak “ fender seals”) were ALWAYS in body color NEVER black
Oh my… that is an unbelievable get!! That Kafer is perfect! Absolutely love that color - just an amazing find. Jealous.
You could tell right away the car was in excellent shape to begin with.

Electrified????? Please no 😮😢
Awesome condition of the V9lkswagen Beetle and with that wash/detailing it has brought back the factory paint
Nice job, great car, it would have been good to know the brand and grade of polishes and other fluids you used, so we could all learn.
I used www.gordetmedrw.se products for the wash and rupes products for the polishing.
Probably the nicest barn find ever.

I had that exact year ('66) Beetle. It's readily identifiable by certain features. I wonder about the mechanicals and how many miles/km are on it
Looks stunning, and it would be fun to drive one again. My older brother bought a 66 brand new, the one year motor, though his had a little more metallic look to the green. Back in those days there were VW Ralleys everywhere in southern California and he always entered with his 66 VW. Then he bought a new 1968 black VW drove it 2 weeks from new, pulled the motor to have it built to I believe 1935cc's, it would pull the front wheels off the ground, cool. He only had that 68 for less than 6 months when I bought a new 1969 Chevelle SS396 and blew his doors off. He retaliated by buying a new 1970 Z-28 which I am humble enough to know he was faster than I again. Miss my older brother and the things he taught me about VW's. Keep that 66 and Drive it, they are fun!!
Amo restauração!
Parabéns!
" nada se perde, tudo se aproveita."
Awesome. Normally the poor beetles were waten by rust in the daily driving. Our family has had three beetles. I have a fond memory of the three cars.
Barn finds can be the best damn thing in the world, if you know what you're doing.
the transformation of the Volkswagen Beetle is more than just a restoration; it is a labor of love, a testament to the passion and dedication of all those who contributed to its revival. And as the Beetle takes to the road once more, it serves as a reminder of the timeless appeal of classic cars and the enduring spirit of those who cherish them.
Ist das in ihren Augen eine Restaurierung?
Ficou ótima a restauração mas merecia ser desmontado e polido na íntegra. Uma raridade. 😊
I had a 1966 VW in 1971 and it had the 1300 on the back just like this one. I loved that car!
Hermoso y nuevo ❤ el estado de conservación increíble felicidades a su dueño 😊
THIS VW MUST HAVE BEEN IN VERY DECENT SHAPE WHEN PARKED. AMAZING WHAT A CLEANING CAN DO! WOULD LOVE TO HEAR IT RUN!!!
