I found it funny when you yelled "FOCUS" at the camera because I found myself sort of daydreaming at the time thinking of my own VW. I kind of felt like I was in trouble for not paying attention for a second until I realized you were talking to the camera. That was awesome! Thank you Marci! I'm no one to pass judgement good or bad but I think you're doing great work here. I'm positive Pickle will see the highway again soon!

@marcijunebug 2 года назад

haha well...I guess that part was for you then! lol Thank you so much for your kind words...I love this ole bus and I KNOW I will have the biggest smile on my face that first drive...already daydreaming about it!

It’s all lightning up nicely. Snow looks great from here, so nice and pretty as it’s 82 degrees today. He’s sure growing up quickly. Stay safe and warm!

@marcijunebug 2 года назад

Thanks man! The "real" job has just killed my "free time" this past year, but there IS a light at the end of the tunnel and I'm finally starting to see it!

@petesha5101 2 года назад

Today is the first time me and my 87 years old mother viewed and learned of you and your talent. Always nice to see and hear building perspective from young people. I have been viewing and fantasizing over VW buses the last two weeks and your video comes as a recommendation. Very nice that it did. I will fantasize me and mom won the bus. A big kick to see 87 mom with 61 years old daughter kicking it together in this. Then the hard part will be fantasizing her to ride in it on that day. Keep rocking it out.

@marcijunebug 2 года назад

AWE! That comment just absolutely MADE my day! I'm so glad you stopped in! Much more coming on this old bus...I just love saving old rusty junk! Catch ya on the next one and thanks for being here!

thank you so much for your continued support, I truly appreciate it! I'm giving it my best go anyway...and I want this bus to be able to hold all my art when I go to shows, etc...so building it where I KNOW it won't fall apart! Catch you on the next one!~

glad your frame is good! That's great news! The People's car...a car everyone and anyone could afford...I find it ironic that it is THAT car that everyone fell in love with...it's almost as if they become family members and we'd do anything we can to save them! Thanks for always being here Charles, I truly appreciate it!

@Mikefngarage 2 года назад

Marci The only thing I would have done is put the ebrake tubes in there before you weld in those square tubes down. it will be really hard to drill those in the side after they are welded. I also use the inner rockers to make sure they stay in line. but the square tubes work great I also used 1.5 x 3 to make the outriggers. just cut them at an angle. works great. Get some cheap ass jack points from bus depot.

@marcijunebug Год назад

On the older buses the tubes were just welded to the bottom of the I-beams, so I plan to treat it the same way. Thanks for the feedback on the other pieces! Appreciate it!

@joegorden9810 2 года назад

@vwbusguy 2 года назад

Good idea to use square tube for the floor supports.

@marcijunebug 2 года назад

HEY MAN! I really debated buying the real deal or the square tube but at 1/10th the cost I went with square tube...and will be stronger for hauling all my art junk around! I put some serious weight in my double cab and plan to do the same with this bus! Good to hear from you!

@dennispalmer5543 2 года назад

If and when Pickle rolls again, will the restored vehicle be close to it’s original weight at the time it was initially assembled in Germany? If it is say 500 lbs heavier as a restoration, will there be an indication for another class of tire? I am clueless about the physical features of a 1958 VW Bus, but I assume that the original front wheel bearings on the bus were ball bearings. If you were to find a way to replace these ball bearings with roller bearings, and say, perform other upgrades to the 1958 bus, could it be legitimately classified as a vintage vehicle when such upgrades and restoration is completed? I am thinking about licensing matters for a restored vehicle in Indiana.

@marcijunebug 2 года назад

Indiana is fairly relaxed when it comes to such matters and we aren't an inspection state so there should be no issues with making any changes I want to make. I think if there are any differences in weight they will be negligible...funny you mentioned that though because I DO plan to go do a weigh in after its all completed! Thanks for stopping in!
