Forgotten Volkswagen Single Cab

- How does an old Volkswagen Single Cab get buried under 3 feet of dirt? Took 45 years to bury this Volkswagen and almost 2 days to dig it out. Have a look. Took the Syncro for a Sunday drive and spotted an old single cab in the foothills outside Idaho Falls. This is nine hours worth of digging condensed into a 15 minute video. It had been sitting in a wash since 1967. It was buried under two feet of dirt but it's extremely rust free given the circumstances. The drop gates hadn't seen the light of day for 45 years. IF YOU HAVE A VOLKSWAGEN THAT NEEDS RESCUED OR KNOW OF ONE GIVE US A CALL AT (208)200-6053. We also consign Volkswagens if you have one you want to sell. Thanks Skeeters.
Thanks for all the phone calls and emails about Forgotten VW's that we have received. This video has helped rescue several abandoned and otherwise forgotten VW's that may have been left for dead including a very cool 1960 VW Double Cab that we got out of Missouri that had been sitting since 1965. We also recently returned from Mission Viejo California where we picked up a 1961 SO-23 Westfalia. This bus had been sitting since 1980. We got a tip on that bus after someone saw the Forgotten Single Cab video. Give us a call today if you know of one. Thanks again. Skeeters (208)200-6053

A little hard to find, but I think I finally found it on iTunes and bought it. Great song. music.apple.com/us/album/crawled-out-of-a-grave/287274751?i=287274773
l have watched this like 3 times, you did alot of work, did it ever get restored,
I am lucky to have such a supportive wife and 2 beautiful daughters that love cars.
A day the little ones will never forget. That's the stuff of great family memories! I can remember turning wrenches with my dad since I was 5. I'm 50 now, and he's passed on but the memories will never fade. Best of luck to you and yours.
is gratifying to know that there are people who rescue these little gems
This video was received so well and such a great success for our first that we are currently working on a creative followup. Hope to do the first one justice with the sequel. We really kinda just threw this one together with very little planning and it just worked. Hard to duplicate that sometimes. Promise a follow up in the near future. Thanks.
Have you more about Restauration?
I have a lot of help from my wife and daughters as well as friends that help out with these projects. I'm not alone....yet.
The care and consideration put forth to get this SC out is truly over the top.
Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for supporting our channel.
Very cool video.
these guys represent America in its truest fashion and form you gotta respect this guy and his family, who's not touched by this? That is an awesome vehicle I remember this thing when I was young.. talk about resurrecting it from the dead literally.. awesome..
they are Canadian
What a fun family thing to do. The kids help, little blonde girl is helping with a shovel that is a whole lot taller than her. Great memories
I came across this video because I've recently became obsessed with older VW Campers/Buses. I'm watching for a few minutes and read the discription: blew my mind that you are 3 miles away from me and I'm right next to the foothills.
That is kind of rare vw looks nice. You did a nice job digging that Vw out. Looks like fun restoring it or hot rodding might be easier to get parts for
"Crawled Out of a Grave" is definitely the right song for this video. :-)
Agreed.
Wow! Talk about perseverance. I grew up in my Dad's 67 double cab. I can remember the day he brought it home like it was yesterday.
fred flinstone It was a bit of a job getting it out Fred. Very cool your Dad had a Double Cab. I'm sure you have some good memories of it. Thanks for watching. JC.
Amazing job digging out that old 1x cab! Good show! I'm doubly amazed that it was not all rotted out after sitting three feet in the dirt since 1967! In 1972, my dad junked an unwrecked 1960 VW bug, but I quickly bought it out of the wrecking yard for $35 and turned around and flipped it to somebody else for the same price, just to keep Herbie from being scrapped.
LOVE to see this VW restored!!
wow good job!!
+MicBergsma Thanks for watching. Hope you enjoyed it. JC.
+Volkswear thumbs up, I did :) going to check out your other videos! Keep filming!
Cool riff from Dan-o. Thanks for sharing along with you fantastic find.
I love how the youngins were happy they'll remember this the rest of their life can't wait to see a video of them see the finished product preserving some history one fellow gearhead to another great job
Excellent!! Nice video!!!
its people like this that make me happy

good stuff! Back in 99, I scored a rust free 70 deluxe that had been sitting for ten years. Best $200 I ever spent, the miles and memories in that bus...
The little girls helping you getting all that dirt around the vehicle is as beautiful as the rare piece you recovered! Contratulations for both!

Thumbs up for teaching the future women folk respect for equipment and classic vehicles.

That was scary! Backhoe has a serious hydraulic problem. Glad you were able to rescue this classic.
Nice to see your family commited to help. Thanks for sharing.
Around 1960 we used these VW trucks to deliver armament to F-100 fighter aircraft in Germany. With the sides down, the bed was low enough to back in under the aircraft refueling boom, and exactly the right height to stand on while lifting the ammo cans to the bays. Sides up, and we could haul around all the stuff we needed. One older truck would not start for some reason, but ran fine after a push start. Motor pool refused to fix it because of its age and their idiotic budget, so we push started it every morning and left it running all day, until we had to return it to the motor pool at night. Military intelligence, you know.
+Hopelessand Forlorn That is a pretty cool story. Thanks for sharing. Do you happen to have any pics from back then of the VW's? I'm always looking for old vintage photos of VW's. Thanks for watching. JC.
My Grandpa was air force and he talked about the single cabs, but also the Beetle pickup trucks. It sounded like an odd concept. I have yet to see one.

Hopelessand Forlorn damn nice, split window like this one too or no?
Muito trabalho. É isso aí!
I love it when people take time and energy to save sweet old cars like that good job
How fortuitous that you happened to have shovels and a backhoe with you you when you were out for your Sunday drive. Thats what I call being prepared for every eventuality : )
So what has happened to this lucky single cab? I'd love to see the restoration, even be part of it! :-)
Hey Ace we are in the process of getting some updates on this truck. Plans are to keep it as original as possible and run it as a shop truck for our family business. As far as being part of it I could get you our address so you can ship me over a new motor and trans. :) All joking aside what did you have in mind as far as being part of it? We would like some help sourcing some hard to find parts. The Sealing Wax Red decklid is going to be a bit hard to find and I would like some original commercial interior panels. Thanks for watching Ace. Jeremy.

@@Volkswear alrighty...4yrs later...so where's the update?! The suspense is Killin us!!! What
Ever became of the ole single cab?!?!
@@maddienreeree 6 years later, what's going on with it?
Now that's what I call robbing the grave :)
My kind of grave robbing MDG. Thanks for watching.
Jeremy Cutts You're welcome. I love seeing these rescues.
Did you see our latest? Last Saturday we pulled a 1960 VW Camper out of a field here in Idaho. Drove it out. Here is the link. VW Split Window Bus Field Find Lives Again. Forgotten Volkswagen 1960 Camper
Jeremy Cutts Yup - already saw and enjoyed it.

Cant beat a type 2
I dearly loved our "orange Crate " that the family owned and drove for years. A trip from Utah to yellowstone, top speed 45 mph. was a great memory. I loved that truck
It was great to see your whole family with you helping to get it out. Looks like its going to be a great project. Keep the videos coming on the progress.
...and it started up on the first try!
That little girl is going to make a great wife one day. She runs off and drives the excavator in like a boss.
Jackle61 She is fearless when it comes to a lot of things. I'm going to try and forget the wife comment. Not ready to start thinking about that for another 10 years or more. Thanks for watching.
Jeremy Cutts I know where you're coming from. I just wish my wife would hop on the equipment and come out to have some fun.
Jeremy Cutts Almost forgot,,,, very cool truck. I remember them when I was boy.
Love the video and I love how this is a family job with you and your kids.
Your enthusiasm is contagious and they love rescuing the car with dad.
Even after years, I still love this video!
Did anyone see the little girl driving the digger at 0:30
Has to be my favorite part of the whole video. Alexa my daughter that drove the track hoe was 10 years old at the time. She still blushes and get shy when people laugh at that part of the video. Thanks for watching.
Volkswear she is 18 now right?
Volkswear Right On, Papa Bear! Inspiring Dad! 👍👍
Ean Albe Not yet. JC.
Never mind the bloody VW. Where do you find women that will go with you to dig out an old truck ?
Roland Hawken I hear they are hard to find. I lucked out and found a couple. Thanks for watching. JC.
Volkswear Lucked out that is an understatement to be certain.
+Roland Hawken nowhere when you call it a "bloody VW"
Roland Hawken You have two gems there 1. The bus. and 2. The women that helped you dig it out. Are any of them single?? Ha ha treat them well
All i care about is the fact the bus is missing like 8/10 things a VW should have, make it any van. (engine, doors, seats, dashboard, wheels, ect)
This is the most amazing rescue of a vehicle that I've ever seen!! Congratulations!!!
Nice VW truck. Definitely a lot of potential in that truck . And great team work. Everybody helping.!😃😄

this is worth over 220 grands...
pesos?
Jeremy, It was great to meet you today. You've got a supercool shop the envy of many of us VW Bus enthusiasts.... Your garage could be my front room.. I'd just add a kitchen and a basketball hoop in the mix and be happy as a clam! Cheers, ;-)
Greg
Thanks Greg it was nice to meet you as well. Very cool Vanagon Westy you have there man. Lots of goodies on that thing I wouldn't mind having on my Syncro. Stop in anytime. Look forward to talking with you again and meeting your wife. Thanks Jeremy.
Adding another like! Saw this years ago and still great.
talk about buried treasure
Yes indeed. Thanks for watching Fassold.
You stole the car...bring it back !!
Finders Keepers....You know the rest. Thanks for watching. JC.
Most definitely.
@@Volkswear
How far are you willing to drive and how far from the road will you go and how deep will you dig? I know where a early V front VW van is in a river, past some farms, ......you have to drive until you hear banjo.
@@xmo552 I'd be interested in hearing more about it. We've pulled stuff out from as far away as Alaska. Sometimes its more about the adventure and the rescue story. Shoot me a text or email. JC. (208)200-6053 cuttsjeremy@yahoo.com
@@Volkswear
I could had sworn I had replied but apparently I hadn't. I even checked my email. So today I drove past the spot and I remembered having told you about it.
The weather is nicer, the brush has dried back, my schedule is under control, and now I just have to go take a hike some day when the farmers are hungover and their shotguns are unloaded..... maybe one of these Saturday or Sunday mornings I'll head out for you.
Amazing... being from Michigan I would never expect a bus that had been left in the dirt for so long to not be rusted to dust!
***** I was pretty amazed when we dug it out that it wasn't farther gone than it was. Thanks for watching.
Your family is so cute ,I think . All of you had such a good time together .Thanks for this inspiring VDO.
You did Good work.
Happy to see this getting restored after 7 years in the garage!
Awesome video!
Great to see an old VW brought back from the brink and lovingly given a new lease on life.
Super cool!
WOW! Great job! Thank you for saving this marvelous piece of history and documenting the salvage for all of us to see. I just bought my very first VW a few days ago...a 1978 bus and I LOVE IT!
I can't wait to see what becomes of this single cab. and one more thing...Girls, you rock!
Awesome. Can't wait to see more. The VW lives!! Thanks for saving her!!

We had one of these in the 60s when I was a kid. We used it to transport most of the building supplies about 70 miles out of town and into the mountains to build our cabin in the woods. Almost every weekend we would be gone. I would sometimes ride in the back and read comic books on the way back home. We never once got stopped by the cops and I guess I never fell out cause I'm still here. I wish I could find another one but they are like gold now. You are one lucky guy. Lots of restoration ahead but so well worth it.... Was that one of your daughters who drove the excavator up to the site? Girls are awesome.
Man this is awesome! You guys are heroes in my eyes!
It looks like this one is in really good shape. A good source to restore.
Very good video. I hope you kept it and got it on the road again.
The first Beautiful song!. Excellent rescue!
Congratulations!
I can't believe it wasn't more rusted. Nice score!
very cool. keep us posted on the restoration
Bloody hell, that's not a rescue, that's an archeological dig ! :D
Awesome cool to see the family help
Great video, love that the family was involved.
Those are pretty groovy tunes for a royalty free musician... Sweet video.
Jeremy! Good work! What you have done all alone ... Cool dude. Good luck to you!

Many Blessings, SMR
Absolutely cool, I hope the VW will see the road again!!
Thanks Anton. I love the Syncros!!!
