Dude, you are the hardest working car rescuer on CZcams. Others started their channels doing crazy revivals and now they do most of their work in a shop. Not you, I think I would have waited at least till it stopped raining. Keep up the good work. 👍
Well if you plan to do work a shop is an upgrade... most of us figure out quickly how much. your work improves having more Tools and a place to work in is a Must... but spending your life outside is your choice...he has a Shop too...😂
Every time Josh is in the video I am absolutely amazed how quickly he is growing! Such a good son and happy he’s there for you and I’m sure learning so much. My youngest tries her best to help me out but is well past the age your boy is and has other priorities now.
Keep being awesome!
You are the Dad I wish I had had. I love the way you interact with your son. I've been watching for a long time and it's so cool watching him grow up.
I fell in love with the Herbie car after watching the movie as a kid. I think it’s really cool that you guys found and rescued this lil’ guy. Like you said, you’ve got a lot of irons in the fire but I hope he gets fixed up and gets back on the road where he belongs. Thank you so much J!
Holy moly!! That raining escalated quicky there! You always pick the best days to work on your rescues, hey? Your struggles to give us content are greatly appreciated! 😂
Cheers from Argentina!
hi LT, thank you I appreciate that...typical day in the life for me there haha
Things you can never un-see! And, of course, there is a hook holding it! the soapy deck was working so good!! Was that lightning!? Can it rain any harder!!! First wash, compliments of Mother Nature!
'We push cars around' . What a great job even in the rain. You watch these movies and think, 'does it really rain that hard in the USA'? Yes it does! At least Herbie is rolling once again. Glad Josh could help, he seems to be quite good at operating the Kubta, had a good teacher! Thanks for the shop update and thanks for another great video Jason. 👍👍
I can imagine your neighbors looking out there window 👀 😆
🤣
Hey Fred. That crazy neighbor is at it again. Get the camera
Man that is some serious downpour I hope you’re staying safe with the high winds from the hurricane and all. Growing up watching Herbie I can understand the desire for this cars it’s very well done. Glad to see its in the right place 😊
Gotta admire your perseverance getting Herbie off the trailer in that downpour!
thank you Mike
Just dancing in the rain, just dancing in the rain... oh what a glorious feeling to have the beetle off the trailer :)
OMG
Your "mini-me" has SPROUTED!!!!
Love seeing Herbie Jr rollin again.
A true labor of love!
Weather adds 10% difficulty to trailer unloading...you should be leveling up soon. Thanks for the shop tour: the dune buggy and the Corvair look like they're worth the price.
thank you
We always called it a Z-bar. Thanks for the videos. 👍
Yes ! The Z bar , thanks
The 1967 VW ads in GB called it the Equaliser Spring. Like Edward Woodward's The Equaliser it tamed those Oversteerers😂
At least Josh doesn't have to watch cartoons to have entertaining videos! Thanks for sharing, Josh!
Another fine day on the East Coast!
Well Jay, you made me really sad when you said you had too many projects. Just call it inventory, for your CZcams channel. You made me happy when you said you have more rescues! Yes! I never get bored of that. We live vicariously thru you! So keep it going, please.
Well done Jason, that start of the video kept me chuckling!. Herbie got a good wash in all that rain. Josh was superb on that Kubota, a real pro !, well done to him, he’s growing up fast…
Yer Boy is gettin big. I member when he was just a little squirt. Looks like he's being raised right. Kudos to you and Jen...
vw heaven for old used vw-s
Been watching him for a couple years now...😂😂 It makes me want to sell my Blazer s10 so I can
buy a bug...😮😂😂
Dude he is the best. I have watched all his videos and cant wait for his next one!
Hell his videos convinced me to sell my Harley and keep my VW's
That first scene was from the unreleased Herbie goes to Vietnam movie
With a little Rambo
Brought back memories of 1967 my father and I replaced a 1962 trans . I kicked it in and busted the boot on heater cable tube. I caught hell . That was 12 bucks you damaged. It was the beginning of my love for VW's . I bought so many parts at the dealership they offered me a Job . Took it rest is history.
That was painful. Like the time your brother wrapped your birthday present with the whole roll of tape. took days to open it! lol
I was thinking that was the heaviest VW on earth! Must have gold floorplans, that tractor can't even move it!
So glad you are ok. When Herbie came forward in the beginning of the video, I thought the jack flipped over and you were in front of it. Then you were gone for a while out of sight. Then you popped up and said got it with the strap.
I love as soon as you got the strap of the front right it just started pouring raining! 😂😂
Interesting hearing your asking prices--Had no idea the dune buggies were so desirable. Would have thought the Corvair was worth more. To each his own! Thanks for sharing your exploits.
The fresh engine alone is worth more than the corvair …add the centerline rims and that’s 10k right there .
The real Manx buggies are astronomical
Liven Life !!!! Thanks Straight Ahead ✌😎PS I use for years Anti Seize on all bolts spark plugs any thing that is going to set out side or in for some time ! It will make you happy when you get back to it !!!
👍👌👏 Oh WOW, simply fantastic! You just created new and soon very famous utube slogans: "First roll since... !" and "First push in soandso years"! Congratulations 🎉. Congrats also because you sell some cars. It's always better to have some more space for pushing the reminding vehicles around! 😁 ;-) 😋😜😝😛👅
Thanks a lot for making teaching explaining recording editing uploading and sharing.
Best regards luck and especially health to all of you.
Now you’ve just come to the realization that you have too many projects? 😂 Whatever you do, don’t let go of those 58-59 cars!
Loving the Harbor Freight 8 ton hydraulic bottle sledgehammer.
I had a 1957 bug. I rebuilt the 36 hp engine. Installed new heads. The one thing I did not like about that model was you always had to drop the engine out to work on anything major. The first gear always had a knock. Bad bearing. But I drove it that way several years till I sold it. Not a winter car for sure. I drove to Conn one year in a snow storm. Snow was blowing up out of the defrosters and ice on the dash. After that trip it was sold and I bought a brand new 1971 Jeepster commando.
Forest Gump would say I might not be a smart man but I know when to get out of the rain 😊
Awesome man , great job . People can say all they want to about how easy that task is but I know it’s not like clock work but it ain’t easy . Time consuming.. yes . Thanks for the share .
What a knucklehead but, we love you Jason! Thanks for the shop tour, you have some nice VW’s you’re working on. ❤
Jason I blame Dubwerks for not being there to unhook the cable LOL, have done something similar, my wife and I went to take a boat ride we untied from the dock I go to back away from the dock and we stuck and basically not moving, come to realize we were still attached to the dock via a chain I have just in case the ropes let go. So pretty much doing what you were doing, great little video and holy crap that was some rain.
Now I seen everything you are without a doubt the craziest person I ever know Paul’s car is off in a pouring rain storm lol. Big super fan your channel but I think you lost it. Keep making those crazy videos. I watch them all the way until the end. keep up the good work. Thanks.
I allways called them Transaxles and that rain was so not CGI.
In the pouring rain too! Dedication.
Can't get anymore wet after a certain point...
Good tribute to Rambo, jolly guy. Don't catch cold!
glad someone got that :)
" Nailed it..First Time !! " Lego Batman 😎
This so takes me back with my 66 with bent left axle. I got a 67 pan with engine and trans for free.
It's great when the goofball comes out to play! Nice job keeping the entertainment value high! I always enjoy your video's man. Too many projects seem to be a theme with guys period! At least the ones that are doing well.
thank you JP, I appreciate it :)
Hi My Name Jason, I am a VWHOLIC, Just kidding keep finding them and giving them the chance at a new life.
LMAO! Like a heavy metal puddin. Should of had Fortunate Son playing in the background. Really good to see the boy helping you. If that corvair was the Spyder I would already be on 95 heading north and would be there in 2 days.
Now that sound is stuck in my head haha ! Thanks ! He’s playing in my area this month . I have to go see him . One of my top 10 , non Van Halen songs is “ Centerfield “ . Spring training in Fl for college I was playing center and they had that on during warm ups 😎😁
Ladies and Gentlemen i give you Forrest Gump…..Forrest Gump 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🤣
I was thinking as I watched the “get Herbie off the trailer in the pouring rain” scene…I bet he left the window down in the Toyota 😂…seems like a great idea to slim down your inventory so you can focus on your favs.
3:58 This where my white-noise "get-to-sleep" track wakes me up again.
Rollin, rollin, rollin, keep them ovals rollin pb blaster
😁👍👍
Another great one. Fantastic first step toward the first start. Keep em coming. Now for a cold one.
thank you BB
Mother nature’s car wash. Fun video Jason
I KNEW IT!! you are STEVE PERRY! That intro confirms it! XD
Dude- unloading the car during a Tropical Storm in the Northeast😂
Things are back to normal at Jason's house. I hear they have invented a thing called a "raincoat". Maybe you could look into that.
Ouch, hurts to see a herbie abandoned.
10:35 Pretty sad when your own camera nods off watching you Work !! 😂
Hahaha! Yes , just imagine me trying to edit that horrid mess
Really enjoy your vids mate, constant flow of rusty gold. Wish i could find some in the UK, Need to dig deeper. Don’t stop buying bro
Shades of Herbies dark period after his movie career ended and he was forced to do wet trunk lid contests to make ends meet. No wonder he was being difficult.
Intro was TOO FUNNY!!! 🤣😂😅
:), glad you enjoyed it !
Great video lads
We thank you Mr M
A roller, yes! Vehicles for sale. Changing project priorities.
👍👍😁
Brutal trailer removal 😂
Why does it rain there every time you go outside?
you really should mount some wood on those ramps. LOL
Haha :)
@@5150mxVW seriously... a couple of 2x12s with some carriage bolts sticking through as locator pins that will catch on the ribs of the ramps.
Well ask and you shall receive. Solid!
i'd like to see this restoration complete, please make a video of this little guy getting done, and lets find out how valuble this guy is.
no shower required that day ..lol
Roll on Brother!
Do you know mustie 1 he does a lot of Volkswagens as well as other things I think it's awesome you getting her be to run again I believe his name is Darren he lives in New Hampshire also. I love watching him every Sunday when he puts out a new video if anybody here in the comments hasn't seen him yet look up his channel.
Hi, he is one of my closest friends .
Yes, GREAT channel and an even better friend :)
Well that's cool I used to live in Stratham New Hampshire
Begining looks like the last rime i got my son to help wash the car .
Dude you are a wild man! LOL
He's on the crazy train
Haha, I’m a feeble old man these days :)
Just keep pushing man thats what keeps ya alive! that and the VW's@@5150mxVW
Im 73 and still loving and working on my VW's@@5150mxVW
My dad got a 73 bug I love the car it's got 30 000 miles it white
Great helper Josh is 👍
You need a vacation dude! Lol 😂😂 🤘🤘
Very nice work 🙌
I think I should buy you a T-shirt that says king of the junk come and see 51,50 lol
Yes you should !
I know this is off the subject, but did you know a coffee maker was an option on VW bugs starting in 1959. I didn't until I saw a picture of one today.
Hi John , I saw that this year as well . Pretty wild :)
Found this on google: There's been a photo being shared online that shows a 1959 Beetle in Germany which had a coffee machine mounted to the dashboard. It's true, VW did try this. It was very rare, but it did exist. The coffee heated up by being plugged into the old lighter socket, similar to brewing tea. The cups were also held on by magnets.
That first segment could have been a silent movie with piano playing underneath!
I think he was channeling his inner Buster Keaton or Charlie Chaplin
If thats a good trans axle maybe all it needs is boots seals and maybe brakes. Herbie rolls, very good tractor operator. Thanks
yep
Make it a Rag top, with a 356 engine and that’s one hell of a Herbie
Wish it would rain like that here . Getting real bored with nice weather.
Swing-axles are always a pain to lug around, aren't they? Don't '67's use long axles, and '64's short? Shame your selling up the Corvair. Always liked that one... Too many projects and something has to give. Hope they go to good homes...
Excellent video Jason :) also your intro to video should send in America Funniest Videos to win $20.000 or end season of show for $100.000 to bet win one them Lol! Also don't feel bad Jason back 1986 my late Father & Uncle bought used Loader tractor Desiel motor at Farm Auction sale and had get home farm and guy put on flat float bed and was early Winter Season months and slip off float bed tow truck on going Reverse after chain also bed was tilt too and lucky flat land on farm near machinery shed to is ! Nobody got hurt and weird part light hit tractor on hood and some how fire up to with key ignition switch to on and starter turn over without touching starter button and glow plugs switch too ! So funny and then start to freezing rain and snow hard for 3 hours and getting tractor in machinery shed too!
Sure surprised me.
It rains every time I wash my car as well.
Herbie my favorite movie
nice job.
5150 getting pushy with it
Herpie rolls!
Dream shop!!!!
It took a bit to unload the trailer, I thought maybe you were just waiting for the rain to pick up.
23:19 he is very good
good to see herbie doin better! im after a bug currently, hope this one has a good home! is the red 63 going anywhere specific? just curious.
Going to your house 👍
@@5150mxVW i wish, i dont got much money to pay for one sadly in such good a shape, heh. hope herbie gets better! was just curious bout the 63, herbie is the all time dream car, dont care what people say, bug for life.
Herbie at the 2024 Dust Off? Do or die? 🔧 ⚙
I've been greasing lug nuts and lug bolts for decades. They never rust or seize and they never come loose.
As a side note, we make the wheels for that tractor. 😊
Nice work but the Kabota operator was better….haha!
👍👍😁
I'm guessing the gears are jammed between 2nd and 3rd, (someone tried power shifting a tired old gearbox) all you had to do is open the oil fill plug, stick a flat blade screwdriver in there and move the gears around forward and aft. that usually unjammes them. If that's what's wrong anyway.
The little car will be racing again
👍
