The rusted 'exhaust tube' is actually a heat duct. The exhaust goes through a heat exchanger that takes heat from the exhaust and sends it up into the cab for the heater and defroster. The engine cooling fan blows the air through the heat exchanger into the heat duct. Very poor heater. I had '63, '71, and '77 buses, and the stock heat was very inadequate, especially for Wyoming! I agree, a Subaru engine gives power and water heat/defrost.
Much loved little campers, got into almost every corner of the world, the Aussies used to come to Europe and buy one, fix it up and drive Europe and the UK then head for Africa ! Noisy, Cold, Primitive and eminently Fixable, you can get parts everywhere !
Nice to see you back Blake. A chain hoist and extra chain would have come in handy with this one. Might have to bring it along on trips as a back up. Unless you no longer have it.
Peace man 🥴🤘did it come with weed ? I think I'll rather have a truck with a Detroit 8 71 or a 8 92, even a 60 series, than being classed as hippie, interesting video Blake thank you for the video man.🙂👍
It's not horse hair, 🤣. That is coconut fiber. I've rode in those buses many times in South America.
Mustie1 must be feeling a disturbance in the force.
HaHaHa I was thinking the same thing.
Absolutely ,hahahaaaha

“I think it’s original, but what the hell”! Had me laughing.
Fun fact: the VW Kombi left enough of a mark in Peru that little vans are still often called Kombis to this day, regardless of manufacturer
A little bit of a great project to be updated and upgraded. A Subaru engine maybe would be nice. Should have the room.

Nice little van! I remember seats of that type of material from my '69 bug. sometimes I wish I still had that little car.
you might find parts for it in Mexico wv built that typ longer there than in europe
That's some unexpected "More Later"
Well you never disappoints us , your ability to spot a turd, and still go buy it . 🤣 but I'm always pulling for you.

Have fun those VW's are addictive and get to be"MONEYPITTS" !
I had one of those many years back it was blue. Strong side winds were scary LOL.
You got your work all cut out. Good luck
This will be great project!!!!
If you want a more decent combi with a watercolled engine. Brazil has them... Made up until 2012
Good Luck! Great vid, keep 'em coming.
Should be a fun build!
That might make a good bug out/ road trip wagon
Hello from the Netherlands .
thanks for the video .
Sincerely, Hollandduck
Looks fairly sound. Not a fan myself mainly due to the nasty engine, but as you don't have one then you could put something good in it.
I'm a VW man as was your grand daddy we've owned about 5
Umm, umm, looks like a project!
Its looks has the bondo put to it
🤔 Subaru or Porsche engine 😁. Nice old busy, many of the in the uk have long since rusted away and the ones that are left are trying to!
Are there VW parts in Wyoming?
My Dad always said there an ass for every saddle.......
WHY ???????
Is this your go to project for a touring ride? Will there be room for you and the 2 dogs? When did you video this? Lots of questions. Thanks.
Interesting
🙉 oh dear

Hiya Blake
For some reason I keep hearing Lebanese men screaming Allah
Great find there Blake. Mustie1 here on youtube is your man to check out he also has the same illness
Everyone helped except for the fat dude in black 😂 he just kept his hands on his hips and watched.
Dude in the flip flops was the muscle in that transport! Lol
@@bryangilmer150 Right!!
@Joker_68 They should’ve sat him in the front seat and let him steer the bus up onto the trailer 🤣
@@Gilly14 LMFAO!! 😝
I thought you said you had way too much going on in your life !
