The original photos are fascinating! I just finished the restoration of a Brubaker Box and it was a challenge! But what an iconic little odd machine it is.
Why not use a Type 2 chassis, especially when VW turned down Brubaker's attempt to purchase Type 1 chassis. It would have been infinitely easier to build a copy of the type1 combined with the characteristics of the type 2 chassis. I think they gave up too early.
Do you have videos to share?
Recognize the 80’s Vanagon a lot. Still Timeless in its aesthetics! A true pioneer Mr. Brubacker 🙌
Doug DeMuro Needs To Do A Review Of The 1975 Brubaker Box Minivan With All Its Quirks And Features!!!!!
That wooden bumper is awesome
Kinda love the way this looks all boxy and squished its great
Greetings from Serbia! The Brubaker Box is a fantastic van
Сјајан дизајн. Тек данас открио
Great show. Great designer. Great new owner/restorer. Jeff will cherish that Lil van. *Van Dangle*
To me it looks like part Ford pinto and part Volkswagen bus. Great design.!!
this is so cool! love the design and so future retro in its design. This video was way too short
Hey, its a Moon Patrol video game car !
Elon Musk should recreate this in stainless and on the skate board electric platform...then stand back and watch the demand explode
Yes if he is not what he is
Wait and see.
If I had a Brubaker box I would have a wooden bumper for ramming things and then I would have a very nice koa bumper for going to church.
The Inventor even has a rad name
Had a feeling he also did the Roamer from the Ark 2 series.
This thing needs a reboot.
This car is gorgeous tf hasn’t it been remastered
Crazy cool concept to reality
Strangely, some of the styling looks like it was an American Motors design.
Needs a surfboard on top.
AWESOME!
Great video.. 👍
das est MY type of car!
btw, the 8-track package was called a 'cartridge' not a "cassette" ... :-)
Damn this is a good looking machine. I want one!!!
Love your vids
cool mini van
Now I know what that thing is in my Dads back yard is. Its been sitting there since I was a kid.
if that's true then make some phone calls, just the bare shell is worth $30K+, a complete one is $70K
I would love to own one, I love the name ❤ It would be unique and I like this🎉🎉🎉 make them again!!!
Legendary
Too bad Shark Tank wasn't around back in the day!
Great retro car
A minivan on hash...nice
What's the connection with the company "Monocoque"?....They produced the "Box" in the late 70s with a Honda drivetrain.
It had access via a tilt up windscreen.
This guy and car an inspiration for Musk,, gotta be...
this one is even better then musk . i think he take it from 1993 car games.
That vans fire
Better than Tesla 😂❤️
Why is there Estonian flag on the back? Where can I find the full video of restorations?
Imagine a modern EV version.
It's not a "frunk", it's a bonnet.
The 8-track was also used in the Voyager 1 & 2 space craft and the recorders continue to work now. I am guessing that the tape is layered metal. That is damned historical and it seems that it will continue to work long after mankind is gone.
The only thing the tape recorders on those probes have in common with an 8-Track is the way the endless loop tape pulls out from the inside of the hub and back in at the edge.
Tape deteriorates over time.
Datsun 521 tail lights
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
The bumpers weren't wood. He made them out of fiberglass, and then painted them to look like wood. 😂 Guess they didn't do any research before they made the video! 😂😂😂😂
It looks like The 1974 AMC Matador 2 Door Fastback Coupe Had A Love Child With a 1974 AMC Gremiln X🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Peanut: It sssssuuuuuuuuuuckssssss
This car looks a bit like it's saying "I kill you".
It's too short in hight.
The dude with the "stylized" beard fReAkEd me the fk out. And the bumpers were FIBERGLASS not wood.
is that the comedian with the taliban puppet?
This is why every great designer needs a great mind like Steve Jobs. His business plan was horrible.
That is right PRESIDENT TRUMP...TOTALLY...He is NOT a DemoRAT that is trying to destroy our nation and make it into a socialist state by open borders, free everything, etc....Just look at what Non American Nancy Pelosi is trying to do by adding more of the evil agenda of the DemoRATS in the Corona Relief Bill.....more of the same disgusting corruption...
💯💯💯We are with you President Trump ! More than anyone of those Liberals will or could imagine!
God bless our President. Thank you Lord for all the wonderful things our President is working on and this Rescuing the Children from this terrible fate is among them. President Trump loves the American People and this Country. Thank you for all the many blessings.
I would own one, why not! tired of the same old thing All the minivans look the same today
Looks like a thunderbird front plastic bumper , meh
Binod
Please fire the guy who chose this music. This is supposed to have a folksy 70s vibe... Instead it's this future base crap.
The body panels and paint job on that particular example is horribly pebbly and is just awful looking! I've seen others examples that look sharp and sleek!
