My dog Rana who I had in Florida in the 80's looked so much like your Bull does..Brindle with a white chest..Very cool...Looks like a decent bug find..There's one for sale here in Detroit that I actually had to look at the post to strike my curiosity..I drove a 69 bug from upstate NY in 81 to Daytona beach..I had my cassettes,clothes and Zeppelin with me and it was a journey..Hooker header pipe was a honkin all the way..I felt at times on the interstate in the dark like I was in an airplane..Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr..Old memories never die..Thanks V man..Great way to wake up with my coffee watching you cut weeds and dig out bugs..
what a great video. That old man was a true gentleman and knew everything about his "hoard". And the pitty at the end was cool, as we have a female blue brindle pitty un cropped, I recognized those ears right away. Again, very enjoyable! Thank you and keep em coming!
perhaps you missed the vid where a friend and I installed a lift :) ? Oh and it's my bday month so I just spent an obscene amount of $ on tools and metal repair panels 😆....great story teller indeed👍.
Nice 64. Finally a car with no dash rust lol. I'm still amazed in how complete you can find these cars. Here in Mexico people would just start yanking parts off of them and when you find them in this state, it's pretty much the raw shell
Your dash curse has been lifted, with a bonus - a key! Nice to see another one rescued before it reaches the point of no return. Congrats on the rescue dog, obviously very happy to have finally found a home.
SO happy with the dash , and yes , I think when i pull the dash cover we might see that in a few more years the dash would be gone from mice as well. Thank you , Chrissy is a sweet pup :)
"Your trim piece fell off". ..."I don't know how that happened" LMAO! Love his stories. I love how every vehicle or miscellaneous part he knows exactly where it came from and of course the story behind it. Old New England Yankees like him are priceless.
Great job buddy trailer comes through again love that you adopted a dog looks absolutely adorable sitting on the driver's seat. I think the old owner never took one breath telling his story
A recent 67 rescue and then a 64 plus a beautiful 5 year old rescue that lives to ride. It is all starting to sound a little familiar. Great video Jason and I love a great VW story that includes arrest. BIG THUMBS UP and I am excited to meet the new member of your family
Congrats on the addition to the family, what a beautiful dog. She seems enamored with you ! And Chrissy has good taste in this 1964 Volkswagen Beetle. She understands the VALUE of being rescued !!! Remains of Volkswagens scattered through out the land ... Some are truley "Rusting in peace, or as the case may be - pieces ... The red/orange passenger bay window van taillights are on upside down. Amber signal should be on top. Relics of the VW past being saved by Jason to perhaps live again ... Slainte' ! Cheers !
What a cool gent - he knows what he's got & how it got there. I'd take "Daisy", one of those Ford vans (I had a 1970 D300 way back when), & that Jeep. You meet the most interesting people when you own a vintage VW.
Another good one Jason. The Gentleman talking had plenty of story's. Downtown earth guy!! I think you did great on this ol girl Jason.... 🎬 packed on will it start?? Yes.. You come up with thegood one's my friend!
hi jason thats a lovely 64 beetle looks very original lovely dash nice find best of luck with the restoration i have a 1966 beetle with factory steel sunroof in ruby red
That one looks like it has some potential. And no dash rust!!! And a key too. Life is good. We had a local guy with a stash like that who hoarded everything for years. Turns out he was a fascinating character and knew the story of each and every VW in the yard. I was able to even get a couple of '59 Beetles from him for $300 with lots of good parts. Sadly he moved, and the stash was mostly scrapped by those that did not realize what he had. Save them all while you can!!!
I remember ct inspections. It was brutal back in the 80s. They made you jump through hoops if your car was over 10 years old. Great video.That dog is adorable.
they sure did , I took a 78 Cutlass through and the inspector told me to park it " it was unfit for the road " ....I just drove off and had an easy on the eyes female take it through a different station ....passed her lol. Thank you Russ
Another good find and another one saved from the scrapheap, both me and she who controls the purse had beetles when we were younger and loved 'em, how I wish I'd got the space you have, it'd be a good project in retirement atb from England
Really nice video and Don’s stories were gold. The 64 is nice, great job in rescuing the car and the puppy. Our dog was a rescue and she’s so loving...
Dude, that was a great episode. Nothing better than getting a good history told first hand. I didn't even notice there was no will it run section! Keep it up! 🤝🇮🇪
Dear 5150mxVV 👍👌👏 Simply fantastic! Maaaan, what a great VW rescue video. Additionally with an awesome good storyteller who reminds every detail! At last you found even 2 bugs with dashboards in great shape. Congrats! I'm eagerly waiting to see how the condition of the beige car is. And of course to hear the good looking engine runnin'. I hope that you will rescue all least the blue bug and maybe even the 2l bus too. With that engine it can be a good daily driver for someone. Maybe somebody even likes the Hippie style paint job. 2) Meanwhile I definitely understand the benefits of your very short, one axle hauling trailer. It's much more maneuverable and high enough for not getting stuck in rough terrain. 3) Now I know that you are 8 years younger than I am. Additionally I now know your month of birth. By the way: In November my very best friend (since way over 40 years) has his birthday also. This year it was even a Friday the 13th! :-) As always: Thanks a lot for making teaching explaining recording editing uploading and sharing. Best regards luck and health to all of you (including the new- used ;-) cool puppy of course). Postscriptum: I pray that the steak dinner for Jen has done the trick so that you are allowed to have even more Volkswagen fence length. ;-) P.P.S. Sir, I definitely miss your appreciated answers very much. What have I done/wrote/said wrong? Will you please be so kind and tell me? Thanks in advance.
dude straight up , your stuff is awesome . I love going bug hunting with you. and such a step back in time hearing about each bugs story . thanks for the videos ! I'm still moving along on my 64 body off. my build thread is on the samba if you want to see my 64. mic lovin it early 64 project is the name of thread.
I'm lining the fair lanes, Cherokee, keeps her, and I noticed some sunfish stacked up on end. Lots of great stuff over there. The guy has some great stories.
Amazing finds you have back in your area still. Here on the west coast very few old forgotten finds like this anymore or what I have heard about it seen. There was one lately though up north of Seattle where the was a horde of old Covairs. Guy was clear if you were interested you had to take them all. I think he planned on clearing the land. Years ago up there was an old barn with probably 50 Cadillacs inside and out. It all went and it's a housing development now. Allot of folks now who want to find an old solid vintage vehicle go east where the climate is drier. Less rust and trees growing through them. Haha. If I can find it a friend has a old vehical by their barn up north that has been parked there since the 40's. I entered the picture in the local paper and was put on the front page. Pretty cool
There must be something contagious about VWs because when I was growing up our next door neighbor had 10 acres worth of old Volkswagens of various models but mostly bugs. One neighbor drove a newer Bettle convertible for what seemed like forever until one day he finally bought what I assume was his dream car a Porsche Boxster convertible. I guess he'd been saving his money driving the old Beetle all those years so he could buy his Porsche. There's probably a lesson in that story somewhere. Myself, I've owned three, a 65 Beetle, a 71 Beetle and a 75 Scirocco. If I get another one it'll be an early 70s well maintained stock one. I'm older and wiser now so I won't try to motocross it and race it and tear it all up.
That was built in the year I was building the Turn of River Lodge in Killington VT. when I was 12 years old. Oh yeah, my father was helping me! Can't wait to watch you power wash those seats! That gentleman sounds like a professional story teller. I understand he is still standing there continuing that story. 12:15 I got goose bumps when I heard the sound of those crunchy leaves under your feet. I really do like the fall. That wagon would be cool if it was complete and wasn't rusted out. 12:55 When I flew in the late fall the state looked like a checker board with all the stone walls. 16:08 That's a 2 door!!! What condition is that in? 17:30 That's an interesting chassis. 18:05 I was 25 just starting my first season of racing in the Skip Barber Series. You're closing in on "50"? How can that be? I might be able to afford that Beetle! How many cars can you say, "The motor is in the front passenger seat." ? Needs and oil change! 21:10 That's a cutie! It's lips must taste good. 21:30 What a beautiful drive! Look at his comment! I gotta get a life!
Loved this episode, that old chap was a lovelly guy. I'm amazed you're still finding these cars and buses, heres my question. Not including running cars how many of these barn/woods finds do you think there still are out there?
I love the video keep saving the VW..I will keep watching for the next ones.. I own 1974 bug. And work at a VW Air cooled shop so can get parts original for most of all VW Air cooled vw. Let me know if need stuff.
awesome story. my dad same thing. still today his driving that beetle. he has a different engine numbers everything mixed. but in south Africa you pay people for papers. no problems
Really good and nice episode. Informative too. All the comments and stories from the old man in the background are fun and pleasant to listen to. I think you often have a better camera that can sharpen when you swipe over the place you are at. I'm not sure. Only you can answer that. As usual, this week's best video blog. I can not I get tired of your blog just longing for the next episode. // Best regards from Northern Europe
Just found your channel a couple days ago, funny hearing stories about these old cars. Virginia can be a pain for inspections, fortunately in southwest VA they don't do emissions or a lot of the crazy nonsense they do around DC and Richmond. My Dad's 86 Olds Custom Cruiser failed inspection cause the guy said the steering column had too much play in it, so we swapped in a column from a Caprice wagon, and the idiot tried to fail us cause the shift linkage was a little loose in the Chevy column. Hell, I had one fail my 1977 Oldsmobile Delta 88 cause he couldn't find DOT marks on one of the sealed beam headlights, not like I was running shitty ebay LEDs or something, it was just some old bargain bulb. Petty bullshit is all it is, the guy I go to now for inspections checks em like they're supposed too, brakes, tires, suspension, lights, safety shit.
Wow, the column in my 86 Olds you can move up and down like 2 - 3 " !!! It has under a 100k miles too ? Yes , there were some real ball busters back then ...I had a 78 Olds that the inspector said" park it out front , it's unfit for the road " ....I left and had my cousin take it to another inspection station ....she passed haha. Omg , dot headlights ? THAT is crazy ! great story , thanks DR
@@5150mxVW Yeah, they're enforcing DOT headlights since about 2015 in VA 'cause of all those obnoxious LED illegal Chinese headlights that do nothing but blind other drivers. The laws here are stupid, but I agree with that one, bad enough when an Acura blinds me legally!
Could have had an hour long video just on that guys stories. When the world slows down and you listen you can hear some pretty cool stuff.
I liked the tune that was playing at the end while you were driving. Mellow tune to drive with.
thank you , I was enjoying that clip editing myself :)
"And then they'll paint it" Nice to see another Blind Melon lyric painted on something. Made my day honestly.
I could listen to that guy tell stories all day.
That Fairlane wagon is screaming for a big block and some slicks. 😎
My dog Rana who I had in Florida in the 80's looked so much like your Bull does..Brindle with a white chest..Very cool...Looks like a decent bug find..There's one for sale here in Detroit that I actually had to look at the post to strike my curiosity..I drove a 69 bug from upstate NY in 81 to Daytona beach..I had my cassettes,clothes and Zeppelin with me and it was a journey..Hooker header pipe was a honkin all the way..I felt at times on the interstate in the dark like I was in an airplane..Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr..Old memories never die..Thanks V man..Great way to wake up with my coffee watching you cut weeds and dig out bugs..
what a great video. That old man was a true gentleman and knew everything about his "hoard". And the pitty at the end was cool, as we have a female blue brindle pitty un cropped, I recognized those ears right away. Again, very enjoyable! Thank you and keep em coming!
thank you , wasn't that story great from Don :).
Let's go for a car ride dad. Thank you for adopting her.
:) , she is SO sweet ...and she let my 19 lb , 16 year old jack russell live when he tried his usual king kong act🤦♂️.
another piece of the vw fence comes home, great story teller

VW fence!!!👍👌👏😂😁 LOL

Oh, new toys! I'm eagerly waiting to see you wrenching and welding.
VW Fence HAHA!
Nice 64. Finally a car with no dash rust lol.
I'm still amazed in how complete you can find these cars. Here in Mexico people would just start yanking parts off of them and when you find them in this state, it's pretty much the raw shell
I was SOOOO happy when I laid eyes on that dash😍
Might be a raw shell, but I’ll bet they are rust free raw shells!
Your dash curse has been lifted, with a bonus - a key!
Nice to see another one rescued before it reaches the point of no return.
Congrats on the rescue dog, obviously very happy to have finally found a home.

Whoever dies with the most toys leaves the biggest mess for their kids to clean up later! Have fun now and make ‘em earn that inheritance!
Gotta love that ole fella just spinning yarn about the old cars. Lots of history there. He stoled the show!! LOL

Petty bullshit is all it is, the guy I go to now for inspections checks em like they're supposed too, brakes, tires, suspension, lights, safety shit.
Wow, the column in my 86 Olds you can move up and down like 2 - 3 " !!! It has under a 100k miles too ? Yes , there were some real ball busters back then ...I had a 78 Olds that the inspector said" park it out front , it's unfit for the road " ....I left and had my cousin take it to another inspection station ....she passed haha. Omg , dot headlights ? THAT is crazy ! great story , thanks DR
@@5150mxVW Yeah, they're enforcing DOT headlights since about 2015 in VA 'cause of all those obnoxious LED illegal Chinese headlights that do nothing but blind other drivers. The laws here are stupid, but I agree with that one, bad enough when an Acura blinds me legally!
