me and my sons 1966 beetle that we have been working on for years to get road worthy, we are newbies to the vdub scene!!!!!! Love all your products and your craftsmanship is some of the best out there!
Great car. Mine is my 67 beetle bought new by my aunt in 67 and given to me in 2000.
Thanks Pete 🏁🏁🏁👍👍👍👍
Thanks for staying with us Gary! Hope you are on the mend
Love the deluxe ragtop sunroof bugs, but I have to go with 1967 because that is what have. Amazing products!! Keep them coming.
These guys make amazing VW parts/equipment. Keeping the faith alive. Any year with an oval widow!!!!
Thanks for the show, really love the build, hope its a car u will be able to use as a daily driver and keep a loooooong time…..eventually.
Favorite set up for me is the gold anodized wheels, Porsche engine, absolutely air suspension. Take care
great video, hope you are all safe and healthy
Awesome build I have 66 bug and will be using a lot of your products on it
My 1961 beetle. That’s my favorite. Thx guys. Awesome build
Love your stuff!! Helping me with my 66 vert! Hoping to win your front beam!!!! Keep up the good work…
nice job loved the custom touches
Beautiful bug, amazing attention to detail, love it with the BRM wheels. I’d go for the air ride over static. Gotta love that green oval too! I grew up driving, loving and wrenching on the old bugs, I haven’t owned one for far too long, maybe it’s time?
You already know the answer is YES!
Man. That thing is sharp. I love how the color changes with the lighting.
I've been subbed up for ever I dig everything that Pete skiba touches. I am a total vw nut from bug's to notchbacks to buses to ghias I would say any vw from 57 thru 66
Sexy car there Pete!! My favorite of course is my 1956 Oval Ragtop Goose!!!
Heck ya! what color is it again?
Nice car. My favorite 1966 Karmann Ghia
Nice! Stock or lowered?
Beautiful car 🤙 🇺🇸
I gotta say the 59' I am Currently doing the same with. Let's just say I got my hands full being 23 and my first beetle! My dad got me into Dubs with his 64 rag which is in storage for 30+ yrs! Boy that thing is Cherry!!
Wow, nice work Pete.
Thanks 👍
Man that exhaust at 4:06. Best ever 😍
Thanks brother! I had many hours invested in that one!
Not a current owner of a old bug but love the 55 oval windows. Had one plan to get another one. Great channel awesome work. Saw ur booth at phx bugorama last year.
My favorite is a vw ragtop beetle. I’d say 60-62. Love the early sixties ones. Great video Pete!
Hello from the east coast. I currently own a 58 ragtop..I have to say its my favorite car out of all I have ever had before. It’s not on the level of the one in the video but I can dream. You guys do great work.
Awesome! Got the car, now accomplish your vision
1964 Type 1 Beetle was my first car. Have had a slew of the later ones but never an oval or split, someday maybe !
Thank Pete for a sweet video to put me at ease w/ all that's going on! You guys rock!!!!!
Thanks Rich!! Time to dream what you can do to your VW! What year and model do you have?
@@AirkewldVWs I have a 59 sedan that's done for now.
I always have you guys in mind when upgrading anything!!!
Stock or dropped?
Front spindles drop and rear adjustable...
Nice! How's the ride quality?
Great car. I've got a 67, it's a work in progress. Love what you all do, keep it up .
Nice! What are the plans with the 67?
My year i like is my full start rebuild of my 67 bug, by next year 2023 I hope to be done..
As much as I love the early ones, mine is a 1971 Super Beetle. Great work and video Pete 👍
Right on!
Sick bug!!!
The best ragtop. 1958.
Thanks Aidan! You have one as well?
Sweet - Haven't gotten my dream VW yet which is a convertable 65. Current have a 69 Beetle.
On the road or currently in construction?
@@AirkewldVWs Right now in construction as I'm converting the front brakes to disc - very slow process since my mechanic skills are nill, but I'm trying.
All good brother. Text me if you have any questions~
My Favorite VW Beetle is any Split Window Model 1953 - 1957. I've owned a 1973 Super Beetle & a 1967.
Great video Pete!!! My favorite year is 67.
Nice! Why is it your fav?
Airkewld because it’s a 1year only.
Sunroof or hardtop?
I have a hard top but I was thinking of getting a rag top kit.
Aftermarket kits are most of the time junk, find a ragtop clip from an original Beetle, way nicer
The uncle's 66 is the reason why I love Beetles. But the first car I ever bought and owned is my 70. It has sentimental value so my favorite is the 70 cause they seem to look fuller and have a certain stance about them. Maybe because of that 1600....
My favorite is a 1966 Sedan
My favorite is my 1957 Ragtop, which would look great with an Airkewld front beam!
No doubt Rich! What color is your 57?
@@AirkewldVWs Coral Red w/black ragtop & dark graphite Empi 5-spoke wheels. Looking to change the wheels sometime this year, once the COVID-19 issue subsides and we all get back to work.
Love me some Coral Red! It was the stock color for this car, it was my original choice. Decided to go the pearl white instead
Which wheels are you thinking about?
@@AirkewldVWs I haven't decided yet, although I'm sure to be upgrading to 17". Ideally, I'd like to get closer to the stock front wheel diameter, so the speedometer is accurate. For the rear wheels, I'll be looking for a larger sidewall (taller tire) to increase my top end, while lowering RPM.
64 ragtop is my favorite it has the best proportions (window size) currently have 69 with Airkewld adjusters,1776
Heck ya Bill!!! What kind of wheels you running on the 69?
Airkewld Chrome smoothies for the Porsche vibe may switch to gas burners or ?
Nice choice!
I like the 58!
Thanks Slade! What year is yours?
Airkewld I have a 73 and a 68.
If I try to buy a 50s one near me, they’re either rotted out or extremely expensive.
Both standard beetles?
Airkewld Oh sorry, the 73 Is a Super. The 68 of course standard. The supers for my wife
What’s the plan with the 68? Fix and flip?
My 67 bus shes 1 year younger than me and its the longest relationship ive had
Whoa! Thats some personal business right there!
We did brakes for you right?
@@AirkewldVWs yeah you did the kit is quite impressive
What kind of wheels are you going to run?
@@AirkewldVWs ive got to find something that makes it.look like a hot wheels car alloy five spoke 15 inch or bigger you have one type that i like slg , paintwork will be two tone white with abalone metal flake its going to take a while but with effort and time shes a keeper2
My favourite is a 1967 vw beetle i know it was a one year build only. My gran had one till mid 1990s till it got stolen. My daily drives are a 69 and 74 vw beetle.
Awesome! Hard tops or crank sunroofs?
@@AirkewldVWs the 67 was a ragtop. 69 and 74 is hard tops. Saving for a ragtop kit
67 ragtop? Where was your Beetle built?
@@AirkewldVWs not sure.
67’s didn’t cone factory with ragtops in Germany or the US so unless it is custom or grafted, I would be interested to find out where it was made.
1961 ragtop Beetle
