While the team awaits the arrival of new parts on the Studebaker Avanti, we flash-back to this fun and funky VW bus! This forgotten 1975 Volkswagen Shorty bus was once a well-known Wheelie Machine in the Houston TX area. After sitting up neglected for over 20 years, the guys dive in to diagnose all the issues that's keeping this cool piece of automotive history from moving on its own power. Will she live to see the road again or better yet, does she have any more wheelie power left to give? Find out as we dig into this fun lil machine!

That was fun! I don't think I have seen dad smile so much!

@neildawson8576 Год назад

This is one of my favorite videos that you've done Love the bug and the liftoff competition at the end.I really enjoy your channel,and your dad spoke more in this one than any I've seen!Keep him going.

@vicswanby454 Год назад

Y'all make this look so easy! Completely like the competition that was the funnest part of the video IMO, you guys keep having fun a lot of us viewers like seeing that! Keep up the great work your sister should have been in on that competition too! I'd like to see a rematch including her with both of you sitting in the back.

@moonwillowschronicle5435 Год назад

That is definitely a "Road Tripper" for sure!!!

@kennethbloom3584 Год назад

in 1973 I heard about a 1960 with newly rebuilt engine that kept overheating. He only wanted $150 for it. When I went with him I found that after the rebuild he and his dad failed to put the heat shrouding back in place. I told him that could be all that was wrong. He sold it to me anyway. I towed it all the way back to Arizona from Tacoma with a 73 superbeetle with no problem. Replaced the heat shrouding properly and BAM it drove like a champ and became a daily commuter for a friend of mine.

@anytimejammin-eva Год назад

I remember my younger brother had a party van. The fridge and tunes was the best part of the van. The engine always had issues as he called it that kept it from runnin. We might not've drove far. But we always had one hell of a good time partin in the hippy van!! Long live the Hippy Van!

@zoltore23 Год назад

Yes, indeed, the fact that a single port motor is installed in a late model bus is perplexing. Perhaps that is all they had.

@TheAtstube Год назад

Popping Wheelies with your Daddy. Makes me miss mine!

@KINGSWARTZ2929 Год назад

Lance you and your dad just bring smiles to my face everytime i watch yall crank this old cars up what a great job keep the hard work up MY GOD BLESS YOU YALL🙏😁👌🙌

@ronatkinson8472 Год назад

Can't wait to see Lance doing wheelies in it

@terrallputnam7979 Год назад

That van looks like it was maybe a advertisement for the Mellow Mushroom Pizza Restaurant. Our local MM in Augusta used a painted up Toyota Forerunner.

@Lisa1111 Год назад

That was senior abuse, and i mean the bus! Boys...That was fun!

@ogresspeedshop Год назад

Another awesome video, you two were having a blast and that’s what doing these things is all about!!

Love the old VW's and very early 60's ford Econoline's... you can make them run on a prayer.

@zoltore23 Год назад

Mad respect for your technical prowess. You guys inspire me!

@warrenmichael918 Год назад

Toss a tie dyed shirt and a bandana on the old man and this could be a 70s flash back....

@courtneesdad Год назад

Definitely the coolest one you have done 👍👍

@grayhounddaddy62leake83 Год назад

LOL...Amazing! I thought for sure that if you stomped on those brakes, that that Ol' VW van would Nose Dive!!! But you both got some serious air when you launched from a standing start!!!

@daleschuler1720 Год назад

You guys are having way too much fun. Excellent episode.

@kathyc8284 Год назад

I commented on how much fun they are having as father and son 💕

@billstone5492 Год назад

Lance & Wyatt that was funny when yall had the wheelie popping contest it actually cracked me up. Yall keep up the awesome work.

@pedropetejimenez9933 Год назад

Great job on this. I like the " Don Ramon" sticker on the driver door. Cool beans ,man. You guys have an awesome show.

@timothyrondo5808 Год назад

great wheelie competition 👏 🤣😂

@dustinmortimer4596 Год назад

Please! We beg you as longtime fans! Can you finish the 78 trans am you had got running and drove back to shop? Said it was more of a project than you wanted to take on atm but it's been almost 4yrs!

@madmex2k Год назад

Sorry, but I was rooting for Dad in the wheelie competition, and he did not disappoint! That looked so much fun. Whats funny is, its such a small engine, I bet you could get around on a gallon of gas for a couple hundred wheelies! Gonna be a hard vehicle to part with, so many great Dad/son memories got made.

@garycooper42 Год назад

That wheelie machine reminds me of something "Puddin's Fab Shop" might do. I could just see him riding wheelies in it!

@terrymoon6335 Год назад

It's definitely puddin blue

@anytimejammin-eva Год назад

Yes Love Pudding Fab. It would be great to see em both burnin tires while sharing patina! ✌️

@anytimejammin-eva Год назад

Speaking of Puddin. I'd love to see Puddin give Lance some pressure washin tips! 😱 I've seen so many videos where after they get "it" runnin. Lance drives to the car wash close by. That would be a fun and interesting video for sure. Lance gettin Puddin Tanged aka Learning some dance moves while having fun pressure washin! Oh La La! Yes Yes!😂😁

@darrellsmith6989 Год назад

I was thinking the same thing!! Put dad in the back 👍 love your show!!

@georgegarton8736 Год назад

Perfect ride for Krissy.

Ron Damon as the "che", lovely combi!!!

@petercoleman1342 Год назад

loved the Wheelie competition! great job.

@Vinegar73 Год назад

Awesome to see you guys fixing these old cars. Great job and thank you for your time and videos!

@kevinwright1551 Год назад

Keep up the great work you guys. Nice job on getting it running again. Sweet.

@michaellane4250 Год назад

So here's my idea on making it wheelie better.. Have your dad sit in the back seat as you drive and try that. The extra weight in the back may allow the front to come up a little easier.

@patricksnow1700 Год назад

It looks as though it’s stuck in the hippie days … this honestly is gonna be interesting 😂

@roypowell3450 Год назад

We enjoyed this very much...another Vee Dub going again. Could imagine Christian using this as her every day runner😉. Thanks guys from the UK.

@johnhannasmusicaladventure8104 Год назад

@TheCrackerBox Год назад

@mikeyhoffman8240 Год назад

The hard start before she started idoling was because of the electronic ignition it had to reset the timing lucky you didn’t have points to fight with. Great job thanks for bringing her back to life

@wileyvinson1208 Год назад

My girlfriend, so lucky we’re both from California and she’s going to get to go to your shop today. I wish I was going. I would love to meet you guys.

@joebrown9288 6 месяцев назад

@thomaswermager1819 Год назад

HA! Easy fix for a whole lot a fun! Thank you for a Great video! I bet Christian could bet both you guys on a wheelie!

@after5auto133 Год назад

You wouldn’t think that 30 horsepower can be so much fun!

@my4everhome Год назад

I’ll tell you one thing if they still made them today I would definitely buy one. Even though it is chopped it is so cute.

@steze48 Год назад

Great episode! the wheelie king!

@quixototalis Год назад

@leighbratcher1998 Год назад

@Eclipce_are_cool336 11 месяцев назад

@rickylaporte6750 Год назад

Awesome thank y'all

@Shawn420Freas Год назад

What a beautiful piece of hippie history. I'd make it a daily driver 😆

@majorahole Год назад

That's a pretty cool looking bus. You should upgrade the motor and turn that thing into a wheely machine

@___PK__ Год назад

😂😂 I thought you were gonna scrape the muffler off the back 😂😂

@louisebrown2887 Год назад

Enjoy watching you and your father working together

@johnellick7362 Год назад

@SimpsonsClassics Год назад

Haha what a fun little thing to own! Great video guys!

@CCRider5312 Год назад

I think the old man by himself had the highest longest best wheelie! 😉👍

@kathyc8284 Год назад

Wyatt

@alanstant9356 Год назад

There one thing that is good and it's the spare parts that you have come in handy when you have it. I always say The Lord provides for us. Bless you guys in all you all do and that was easy to figure out what was wrong with that awesome bus. Thanks for sharing everything you guys do.

@troyadams1076 Год назад

Ain't nothing like dad son

@martinharris5017 Год назад

You guys are correct, a 75 bus should have a 1699 twin port motor. Someone put a H Code single port 1500 in there that appears to have been mildly worked. Nothing wrong with that though, as many regard this as the better motor and it will have plenty of power on a shorty. I'd suggest the sooty plugs are a timing issue. I hope whoever ends up with this bus preserves the cool paint and patina!

@SamBardic Год назад

father and son this is great the best love it

@coyboybc Год назад

Can y’all imagine if you put a bigger hopped up VW engine and strong clutch in that thing it would drag the bumper! Love the short VW van ! Too Cool 😎

@yamf6639 Год назад

Hey, You need to put some weight on the back seat to get a decent wheelie dude! Best of luck

@robluna8038 Год назад

Haha 😂 ya ou n your pops so f’n funny on who got the highest wheelie lol I think your pops got you lance lol

@KKPULLS Год назад

@johnelliott7375 Год назад

God bless you guys and your work is uplifting to us common folks!

@chicagovasko Год назад

Super great show can't wait to see.

@wesleypulkka7447 Год назад

TR, if you have an old VW Idiot's guide you'll find a setup that incorporates a Ford pickup truck starter solenoid that shortens the circuit to the VW starter. I have installed several and my current 66 Bug converted to 12volts has that setup and starts every time using the original ignition switch rain or shine. Great project and video!.

@dustyrusty6840 Год назад

Need to let your Dad do the first test drive and also Christian. I can see the big smile on your Dad when he gets to drive.

@jaynordgaard1074 Год назад

I love this little bus. You guys always find the most interesting things to work on. Thank you for the great entertainment. Keep on keeping on my friends.
