Boulder City Bullet Bus 

This was my fort when I was younger... shame its gone now. my buddies and i put it upright, it was originally on its top.

I've drug some junk home in my day but never in this bad of shape. I do wish you luck and hope you get it fixed up.

Best of luck restoring this VW!

Worth saving? Absolutely!

I don’t care what you did with it I salute you all for the rescue

Don't know what we would have done without that fuckin music

Imagine that thing coming down the rode, bullet holes and all.

Thanks this is a good video. This 1955 is the oldest VW ive seen.

saludos desde Venezuela bello gesto de rescatar a un gran icono de cultura automovilistica exitos y bendiciones

That's gonna be a lot of metal fab

Would be sick on a air ride chassis, but with the body just like it is.

Whoo yeah! Good job!

had a car full of bullet holes they have a very odd note as the wind passes through. sometimes haunting but always entertaining

Great vid! Thumbs up!

Where's the video of it, running and driving?..

I was there the day before it was taken out and we got some great pictures

Got to be done....👏👏

if your serious about fixing her thats dedication ..

A bit of paint and she’ll be good to go Guys!

This would have made the ultimate drive out video. :)

$20-$25 in scrap metal is all that is worth.

yard art

good news is that every piece of metal is available new.

Miss my 1977 vanagon!

Awesome

It would be interesting to watch a video, coming to Skinner Classics VW

You have to draw the line somewhere. But seeing someone steal a van and post it was interesting.

Niiiicccee 😵

And the bullet bus how is it today?

That shit will buff out

you should restore it but don't fit the rust and bullet holes

It is a shame that someone abandoned the bus, littering the desert that way. It could have been sold to be used or scrapped. If it was stolen and stripped, that is worse.

How the hell are you going to save THAT?!?!?......

Is this Bus really going on the road again? That would be a chalange... Greetings from Berlin germany..

will you have good name for Bullet Bus

yessss save em all plz

Call the paintless dent repair guy!

did you have to purchase it or was it completely abandoned?

If you try to cover all the bullet holes right there from the past present and future good luck for that because this is going to be a major gigantic project ever in your life to cover up those Bullet Hole on the Volkswagen if not you could just take a radiator something else good luck

goodstuff

What year is it?

I will be amazed if you can fix that

What are the plans for the bus

Maybe sentimental reasons?

I've seen better planned out kindergarten field trips BUT, you saved it. Do you have any idea what the writing is on the front? Be interesting to know it's history, hell there might still be guys around that drove that back when. If you haven't seen it Mustie1 did a real cool series of vids on fixing up a 1959 single cab he rescued that had practically no floors on the bed and treasure chest, but GREAT original paintwork from back when it was a gofer for a lumber company in Memphis. Cool to see something like this saved from my neighborhood. I was out that way near where they were starting the Dam Flyover and saw an old brass era car laying out there headlamps and all...

so what hapn to the buss?

Robert/Skinner Classics VW: Paulo in Sao Paulo ,Brazil would have the Kombi looking like it rolled out of the Factory in Germany or Brazil in no time flat. What panels he could not repair,he'd just make new ones with his own creativity and bare hands. Check out his RU-vid Channel : Paulo Funiliero

put som ski.s underground it man.you.tare it all up in te rocks

That one looks a little too far gone

Mega filmik 😀👍 Like Zapraszamy do nas 🌹👍

I guess those big, bad "hunters" had some wicked tales to tell about being attacked by a rogue VW bus. I've never understood people with that low level mentality.

Drug deal gone wrong in the 60's and bullets started flying!

..Still worth 10 k.....

Should have left it there. and yes im a vw bus owner. some buses are worth restoring, some are too far gone. this is the latter. people think just because its a splitty its worth a million dollars because of jacked up prices on Samba.. its not. but some people have no sense. And judging by the Hummer, prolly have more money than sense.. interesting video tho, and enjoy your new yard art. :)

there will be more body filler than van xD

One question; Wha fo?

Sorry, steal a stripped, bullet ridden shell of a van! I'm beginning to think some VW guys are a bit nutty! This is straight up colt stuff.

There must be many other buses in Dar better condition than this ------for the cost of restore you could buy a new one

still don't understand what makes people like the vw bus scrap metal about all is worth hit it with dynamite lol
