Hurray for the "How To Keep Your Volkswagen Alive..." manual! I am 69 year old lady now, but in my late teens, I used the white spiral bound version from the early 1970's to keep my 1970 VW bug alive for over 10 years! The guys at the auto parts store forever gave me a hard time when I'd show up with my shopping list asking for Bosch parts and metric tools, but I persevered because that manual gave me the confidence to do ALL the work on my own VW beginning with dropping the engine to do a valve job, then continuing with regular maintenance, and much more. That manual remained the VW Bug Bible in my family through our lives with additional VW Bugs from '62, '63, '73. More power to you Wawa - not afraid of a little (or a lot) hard work and getting greasy! And, how lucky to have parents who teach and encourage the spirit of accomplishment and independence! You go girl!!!
Wawa, I am glad a fan sent you the "How to keep your Volkswagen alive" manual. My father bought me that same manual back in the mid 1970's along with my 1st car, a 1964 Bug. (It had the crank sunroof, gasoline feed heater, and it was a 6V system.) I have been looking all over trying to find that manual to forward to you, but someone beat me to it. :) Enjoy your Bug!
Yes thank you

In the farming industry we call the steering know a knuckle buster
Back in the 80s I had 2 VWsand I can tell you that the manual that Wawa received was considered the VW bible,the illustrations were awsome!
Wawa should let the squeezie paint the VW .
Great idea! The 1st original painted Squeezy Beetle!
They could call it The Squeetle.😆

Wawa , You are very welcome 🙏🏻 I'm so happy to see that your Bug is up and running ❤. Marc Ransom- Lake Elsinore, Ca.
Thanks again!
@@sleeperdude2690 you're welcome 🤝👍
Hey sleeperdude family, I’m glad you all liked the cross’s my hubby made! I laughed at the way you pronounced our last name haha. The “ch” is pronounced as the letter “K” lol! Enjoy you vaca ❤
Hey Josh, such a sincere look on your face thanking the people for sending Squeezy the paints. I literally laughed out loud! Same with Tasha’s face at the thought of putting the Thunderbird poster above the fireplace! ❤ Hope you’re having a safe vacation trip. Y’all need to catch up with “Your NZ Family” when they come to the US!
True, the look was classic😂
😊😊😊😊😊😊😊en 😊9
Paint the VW Bug with Hippie flowers, peace signs, rainbows and hearts. ❤❤❤❤
Y'all, Pocky is SO GOOD! Anyone readying this, Pocky is at least as good as Beaver Nuggets!
They're probably on vaca right now. My comment was for anyone reading it.
Seriously, if anyone reading this sees Pocky and hasnt tried it, pick it up. It's a little sesame stick dipped in chocolate (or something else... Strawberry is good!) and you may never know how good that is until you try some!
Speaking from experience, if you keep a manual library in your new shop… make it a separate room, and keep it temperature controlled. I kept some in my shop, in a well ventilated cabinet and in less than a year my manuals were losing pages.
I requested the company add a note with the VW t shirts for WaWa - they slinked out.
Hope she likes them.

That VW book is a must have and it can explain pretty much everything...this was our go-to before You Tube videos made things even easier. Plus the illustrations are works of art!!
The spiral bound ones are vintage gold! Keepers. Don't get them all greasy like I did mine.. LOL!
Hey Josh but when you're a blessing to folks you'll get it back tenfold more than what you give and your family and videos are a blessing to myself and others so we reap the blessings you give and you get the blessings back
I believe the reason I love your channel other than being family oriented is because you keep it interesting and you do longer videos so you actually feel like we're part of the family or friends when watching your videos. I am always waiting for your next video because I want to see what my favorite family is up too and how life is treating them. I would rate your videos up there with the short series on TV. I would watch one of your videos over most of those series on TV. Love your family and video's. You are one of the best u-tube creators on u-tube Josh and family! ❤ Thanks for producing great content in such a stressful world.
And as always, I’m sending all of you my love. Greetings to everyone from North Carolina!
That vw book is definitely a must have for old vw owners
That John Muir book is a classic. Years ago, it was popular enough that you could find it on the shelf in most bookstores. Muir's funny hippie-speak style and Peter Aschwanden's illustrations also make it a fun read.
The illustrations are sooooo 👍 good
Woohoo, I love the family excitement when fan mail is opened.
It's like Christmas every month 😂
Yes very excited!!!
For sure
@@sleeperdude2690 was hoping my fanmail had turned up, fingers crossed in the next 1 🤞
@@PlasmaStorm73-N5EVV good point 👍
The VW book was a life saver for me in high school. I had a ‘63 bug that I did everything on. It’s got some great illustrations too! John Muir was a VW legend. That book fueled my insane interest and passion for cars.
I LOVE YOUR CATS. Once I stop doing crazy stuff I will adopt a small dog and cat. I know that they will make my life even greater. I’m 75 and we love fur babies!!!! Have a great safe trip from any worries! ❤🤗👋
Somewhere in the 26th minute JOSH YOU GAVE ME THE CHILLS! My Daddy been gone since i was 15. Just had a brithday. Missing him bad. Told him to send me a sign he was lookin out for me. Josh you said REAL DEAL HOLYFIELD. 😮 THAT WAS IT! CHILLS EVWRYWHWERE MANE! 😮😊 THAT KNOWING! THX S.DUDE!
The RC cola piece of metal was actually meant to be on the inside of a corner store or market that sold a small line of groceries! The screen door would have the push bar right in the middle of it, so when you went out, you weren't wearing out the door itself period we used to have Pepsi and Coca-Cola wands, including 7 up thermostat signs that hung on the outside of corner stores in the city of Detroit period it is known as a pushbar.
So, you're gonna have an office down at the new shop. Here's a hint. When working on something and having to reference the Hanynes or Chilton's, or even a factory manual, for the section you need to use, take it and scan the pages and print them off, so it's the copies you get nasty and not your books.
What an amazing family! Prayers for a safe and amazing trip!
I gave my daughter almost the same art kit when she was 12. She does very good drawings 13 years later.
The rc cola item is a door handle cover for an old store door.
I think you have the greatest family ive ever seen. God loves you all and so do we. Hate to see the children grow up. They will be an asset to this country. Stay safe on your fun trip.
I have 3 copies of the vw book. One for the shop, it has fingerprints and oil prints all over it. One is for the coffee table, and the last one was used to frame the art that is on many pages, so that book is in pieces. Keep all your books!
Good idea
@@sleeperdude2690 let me know if you drive through southern Arizona! I may have some vw stickers for Wawa!
Two books for the shop and two books for Wawa's personal library. Keep up the great videos. Love how the family interacts with each other. So much love.
Put that big picture in your new building
The hot rods baseball bat can be used to check tire pressure. Thump it on the tread area of the tire. Thump on a few tires with the right pressure and you learn what that feels and sounds like, then when you thump a soft tire you can, with a bit of practice, you can get within a few pounds fairly accurately.
8:11 oh shoot! I thought she had that book already or I would have sent the copy sitting on my shelf gathering dust.
It’s all good thank you
@@sleeperdude2690 I saw she got like 40 of them lol!
FAN MAIL !!!!!!!! People send in the best gifts.
The Beatle sounds great 2x👍 Have a great time on holiday (vacation)
Thank you
I love how Tosh says 'Vee-dubbya' it's awesome ❤
@@PlasmaStorm73-N5EVV autocorrect kicked in
I love those casing straps, used them a lot in towing years ago. Hard to find now. Fair warning, always slip them as low as possible, or they will rub against fiberglass or metal fenders at the bottom damaging paint if not used correctly. So nice a gift, leave in place on the trailer all the time. just hoop and scoot. takes less than 5 min to strap all 4 casings. @Vevor, nice gift!
47÷ minutes off laughter and heartfelt enjoyment..my perfect addiction
Been watching for a few years, and love your family. Love all the gifts you got. But I must say I love the big picture of your Thunder chicken with Davey Allison's car in it. You all be good and stay safe.
That book WA got is the best VW book around. Nice and easy to read and explains well
that VW book is by far the best one out there for keeping your VW alive and making any repairs it kept mine going for a long time Wawa now has the ultimate manual now
I bought several items from Vevor and they are the best. Everybody wants my tie-down straps from them. They are super strong enough for a car or truck and easy to hook them up.
Hey guys, cars don't last so long here because of road salt.
We were going to send some Canadian chocolates and maple snacks to you... but we thought we had better wait until the weather gets cooler so you don't end up with melted snacks. Thank you so much for what you do. Your channel has been a great inspiration to keep us going on our channel. Thank you.
Have a fun and safe vacation, and I'll be watching for your new releases! Please take some time with your awesome family and put down the GoPro every now and then.
Nothing but best wishes.
Thank you for your always amazing content.

Never thiught watching fan mail would be fun. I’ll just check it out a minute. Suddenly 47 minutes passed by 😂❤ Safe travels! Oh Wawa, thats such a cool belt buckle👍🏻
that skinny RC sigh went on screen doors of old stores
Hello all from Siesta Key Florida
Hello there!
Glad the manuals made it! Hope you get some good use out of them.
Many years ago worked for Roka in NYC.They were one of the largest suppliers of VW parts. Their catalog had terrific mechanical drawings which even experienced VW mechs loved. That VW for dummies was a big seller. I hope that you folks have a wonderful safe trip!
Best regards,
MartyZ in NYC
Heh heh, cool stuff! That VW book (x3) that Wawa got is one of the best (and funniest) service manuals ever printed! I love that they did the original one on a ring binder, so you're not constantly fighting to keep it open to the proper page!😄👍👍 *EDIT:* LOL, I knew for SURE that tapered box was a ukulele... until it wasn't!!🤣 Honestly, I don't even know where a guy would find something like that 'station wagon' cooler!😅 In regards to the Aussie Ford cars, they also have that famous Barra inline 6 that's comparable to Toyota's 2JZ.😉 Just a side note, I have a VW buckle like Wawa's, but it was actually made from a sand-cast of an actual VW badge from an early Beetle!😊
I've been watching your channel for a cpl years. I'm so happy to see your success!!!!!!! Don't change anything your raising a cpl gearheads and an inspiring artist (squeezey) will be your airbrush artist for future builds. Your supportive wife is the key. She is imperative to every thing! Every person in your family is irreplaceable. God bless you all, and may you be blessed beyond measure.
That looks so good Squeezy!!❤️
I believe that is the late Davey Allison he race for Havoline and drove a Thunderbird
Can't wait til the wife gets home so we can watch this video 😊❤
Awesome
Have a wonderful trip!!! Love your videos!!
Always a fun time seeing what goodies you get...had to chuckle to Tosh's dollar gentry gift card and the classic rv kooler...have a safe and much deserved fun adventure on your trip.😇🚗🙏😎🇺🇸
Poor Rocky he was left out again, he gets no respect anymore, might as well call him Rocky Dangerfield. I enjoyed the video as always. Hope you folks have a wonderful and safe trip be careful out there and have loads of fun. May God bless.
It was like Christmas in July! Thank you guys for another fun filled month of Sleeper Dude and Family videos!
Man I get so excited when a new video comes out!! When I’m not listening to Jerry Lee Lewis and performing, I’m watching Sleeperdude. Y’all are awesome!
You can use the ball joint tool for universal joints also. We do with ours, works pretty slick. Y’all have a safe trip and maybe see you guys on the way. Heading to work in Texas from WV.
Awesome thank you
Once Squeezy gets learned up on drawing faces, she could earn some spending money doing caricatures at the car shows and events.
great point my niece from CA who is ten just moved to Wi went to Fond du Lac fair they charged her 30 dollars to do a character of her face in black and white
I swore by "How to Keep..." when I owned a 66 Beetle (and I mentioned that Wa Wa needed it in the "getter started" vid!).
She'll learn so much reading it. A real plus is the writer's fun style.
I'm glad someone could part with theirs for her!
Sad to see that my package to Wawa wasn’t included. I mailed it a month ago. Hope it didn’t get lost. Doyle in Mississippi
To Wah-Wah, Make sure you hold onto the "Idiot Manuals" with the less colorful beige covers. They are older editions and are getting more desirable. I have a second printing in excellent condition, and I will never let it go! Love your whole family. Michael from Champaign, Illinois, USA (and sometimes Utah).
Ok thank you
Hope you have a brilliant and safe holiday sleeper and family mat uk 🇬🇧
Hey Sleeper dude, loved at 34.37, the Ford Falcon AU, some say the best Falcon ever!! Don't forget, there's no Australia without an AU...
Everything this guy stands for is the best way to say: u cant lose if you let it all ride on sleeperdude. He is a person who leads by example. He makes it work. Hes so positive he can convince u are ready for the G.E.D test.
There's nothing I can say that hasn't already been said. You are all terrific ❤️. You are bringing me happiness during my time of hard times. Watching your channel gives me something to live for. Thank you for sharing. Words cannot describe how I feel.
The old book is a collectors item ,so use the new one .keep the old one in clean condition
I have a couple of copies of that book myself. Let me tell you. It is a Bible and can walk you through anything you would ever need to do on that bug.
Vevor stepped up. I will be using them from now on for shop equipment. You guys have fun (I'm guessing you're in the middle of your vacation) and stay safe.
Hey Josh I just found second channel. I like watching you and your family, the girls rack up on fan mail keep videos coming .
WOW! That looks like a first edition spiral bound “how to vw” manual!!!!! Wawa should read the cautionary tale about the ponytail tied to the rear decklid.
So much fun watching you all open your mail!!
Hey to all of you from mt. I think ralphie would love my 85 s10 with a 383 stroker sbc in it, wish i could show y'all a pic of it
Yes he would love it
Sleeperdude2, I changed my profile pic so you and ralphie can see my truck
Wawa needs an original steering wheel with the Wolfsburg crest for her VW. I'd send one, but I don't have one, otherwise, I'd send it. 😅 Seriously though, if someone has one, that would be awesome. Very cool fan mail guys!!! Thanks for sharing and really cool of everyone who sent something! 😎👍
The RC strip was used on screen doors at stations to keep people from pushing the screen out.
Zephyrs were all OVER the place, i was a teenager and LLLOOOOVVEE cars, and the big beauties from the 60s and 70s, best friend had similar to your new yorker, his was a butterscotch color 74,
ABSOLUTELY----> OUTSTANDING!!!!!!!!!!. 🙂
using the book and a haynes manual I did a full restoration on a Beetle when i was but a lad, 37 years later I still see the current owner driving it around
Had to laugh at the item you got from Canada being wrapped up in Tuck tape, has to be one of the most Canadian thing, so just so you know we use a paper to wrap over the wood when building a house before siding or brick work, it’s like a vapour barrier and to close the seams we use the Tuck tape to seal them. Also comes in handy if you crack or put a hole in your tail light, a little Tuck tape and you’re good to go until you can replace it. Anyway hope you guys are having an enjoyable vacation in the Oldsmobile.
@ 35:20 - that steering wheel knob is called a suicide knob! Had 'em back in the late 60's on my cars.
I wonder where you are on your trip!? Say hi to Yogi and Boo-Boo for me when you get to Jellystone Park!
Its always a good time when you see the notification that a new SD2 vid is up! Hope everyone is having a great summer
I love the good Christian family content and love so much that you include the entire family.
I was stationed in Japan for 4 years 2002-2006 with the USAF at Yokota Air base Tokyo.Japan. We would get Pocky, and they are used to dip in your coffee, and stir your coffee!!!! I miss all those snacks!!!!
Hope you have a great trip. Let Wawa know, a friend had a bug, similar color. He touched up the paint with Ace Hardware spray paint, and it was such a close match, he ended up spray painting the whole car. I don't remember the color, but it was very close.
All of you are amazing.
And so are us fans. We love you all . Thanks for sharing ❤😊
Ya all are awesome and deserve everything you get I love the fact the whole family helps in the saving of the rusty relic’s they deserve the second chance you all are giving them god bless your family and to all that watch!
