I am thrilled at how many other people are infected with the virus of saving old VWs. You are bringing back such good(?)memories. The 2nd great Westy I put together, was found in a field in New Mexico. It was the home of a family of Roadrunners. Seriously. I would gently remove them,but the next day,they would be back. The story has a happy ending,and I am sure their ancestors are doing well. And the van also. Your determined ingenuity, is inspiring. Look forward to next video. Thank you.

I admire both of you for undertaking a major restoration of a VW bus. Sure is a lot of work.

YAY another Underwood Garage !!

Ok, I am on video TWO...I already LOVE your attitudes...MY WIFE WOULD NOT HELP ME...LOL...Good luck with the BUS you two

YES ANOTHER VW VIDEO

Ugh Clark I'm so obsessed with your videos. I wish you uploaded more, however I know it takes time to make these and keep them amazing. Please keep it up!

Clark, you guys have your work cut out. One rusty nut at a time man. Keep a smile on your dial!

thanks for the update guys! I understand your struggles and frustrations, having 2 vws of my own lol. can't wait to see what you guys make of this business, it's really inspiring to see you guys take on such a project, especially together as a couple!

Really nice videos. You both have fun personalities, and meant for each other.

You guys are the best.

Great to see the progress :) I love your energy !

Love the garage videos! I've always wanted a dub bus but I never got one. Since I subscribed to your channel I'm looking for one now! Thanks for pushing me to chase my dream bro. Your channel has inspired my wife and I in so many ways! Thanks and keep up the great work.

Simply amazing work you’ve done here. These old VW busses have so much appeal, and I understand why folks refurbish them. I had a ‘72 model for a few years in the ‘80s. It was my favorite vehicle ever. A dream to drive, and so versatile. Best Of Luck

I loved my 1965 factory camper. I lived in it for 1.5 years and toured western North America the entire time from Southern California to the Yukon Territory (1970/71) :-) Looking forward to seeing your progress .... Great Job Clark and Hillary. Oh yeah, not sure that what are technically referred to as "brake shoes" aren't technically "brake pads" ... must be a Texas/Oklahoma derivation :-)

I can't wait for part 3!!!!!!!!!!!

Great progress. Loved watching it. Good job!

I think you've done a fantastic job with these videos; you have so much more patience than I have. thank you for going to all the trouble and doing these videos!

Good one guys! Have you thought about fitting a Subaru motor to the old girl? More power, more reliability, more comforts and MORE POWER. 😉

Clark, invest in some PB blaster spray it works wonders on seized bolts!

A great thing for getting a part rust free is apple cider vinegar let it set a couple days then rinse it with a pressure washer or a garden hose takes all the rust off if it isn't totally cleaned do it again you will have to use some sort of chemical to stop the rust from coming back like a zinc coating or similar. I also heard that molasses works well too it is diluted with water one to seven and is a bit cheaper than vinegar I never used it but have great success with apple cider vinegar.

Clark got a small tip for you! you will love this take a propane torch you know the ones you use for soldering pipes or some use them for camping up here there green and heat the nut for about ten minutes make it hot enough you can't keep your hand on it and then take he breaker bar and it will come a lot easier for you! another thing you can do but it will cost a little more is bet a set of oxy acetylene torches you can get a mini bottle set I would get them on Craig's list used that way you get them cheaper if you check what a new set costs then it give you a good idea what would be a good price with this type it will heat a lot hotter and you easily would turn the bolt to a orange glow but for small bolts that are seized you can heat them up cherry red wait for it to cool down if it doesn't come do it again you can use a candle to help create a lubricant and it is not toxic or just quench it with water I usually do that as I am impatient to wait for it to cool. Look me up on FB if you have any problems pertaining to such things like this if I can help.

Was so happy for ya when you popped that wheel nut off! been there, not fun haha

love these!

Very nice videos! can't wait for the next!

Duuude I love how you life youre live and do all of those awesome things. Goodluck in the future and I hope there will be more of those awesome videos!!!

I'm so excited to see the progression of this bus! Planning on doing the exact same project next year! Fantastic video, all the best of luck!

This is awesome!!!

this is so neat

Inspiring!!

so WWOOOOOOOOOWWW!!!. Cute couple, Amazing ride and videos, Awesome hardworks you get there! there's long way to go but i do hope that you both will finish in there with a big, big, big, veeerrry big smile. VW is happiness by the way ;))

Nice! i just subscribed to your chanel after watching your cross country trip in your orange bus, and as expected im hooked! Better late than never! For me, i love the fact that you guys are learning as you go along, thats the way i have done it, and i am by NO means a pro, but i can fix just about anything on my 80 westy. You guys are a fun couple to watch, and im really enjoying watching, thanks for documenting and making the series!

Dope guys! I'm startin a resto on a '79 bay real soon! Lookin forward to your updates :-)

Very cool! Love your videos :D Can't wait for the next ep :)

Hey man, really inspiring stuff! Cool to see someone who doesn’t know much tackle stuff the way you do. I am going to be taking on a little body work on my 88 Westy. Not really too fired up about it, but after watching your first video from the old van I am a bit more at ease about it. :)

Love your vids about your VW BUS man. Keep up the good work! I subbed it up! You guys are alot of fun.

SOO GOOD!! :) Keep it up you two!

brake pads ?? on disc brakes ... brakes "SHOES" on drum brakes ... but not picking ! good job you two !

Thank you for sharing your adventure! you got a new subscriber from France :) keep it up

Labour of love ain't they lol. 🤘

super dope... I cant wait for some roadtrip videos haha

Excellent! Makes me want a VW Bus! I'm working on converting a Ford Transit into a camper van, I could fit your bus inside of it almost. Cool video.

Great video! From argentina here. Just bought my VW bus and i'm starting my restoration. No other chanel show the mechanics they do as well as you guys. If you know someone where i can learn more let me know. Mine is in similar conditions as yours so looking foward your progress.

keep up the great work! "Pop tarts"? ☺️

Dude you've got to get a torque multiplier for those axle nuts. It makes it way easier. It also works on the fly wheel nut for doing your main seal. They are like $90 on CIP1.com. Worth every penny.

Wow super cool! When i'm older i also want a VW van! (I hope they will still be in the world when i'm grown up... :p)

Miss your video's brother!!!!!

What a great wife helping you work on the bus

I like that girls smile

Greetings from Sydney, Australia.... I just picked me up one of these! Similar year I think? 68/69? Looking forward to the journey......

Can you talk more about what was going on with the title and the process that you had to go through? I'm kinda interested in how it all went down

Magic eraser 😂

Try a torch on those frozen parts, heat usually breaks them lose

subscribed.

Yeah the rest should buff out in a min or two

Awesome.....You may want consider an extra battery and an oil cooler.... Looks great and super stoked...Are you on a FB page too?

Hey there!:) Another super cool video, thank you so much for them, they're a real joy to watch! I've a bit of a weird question here- I'm not sure but I think you used to have a post somewhere about your trip with tons of photos, I thought they might have been on your website but now they're not there?

Very nice, I had a 79. Last year of the Type II. Did you think about a disc conversion? Great videos.

Lol loved the engine noise! Bwaaaahhhh! Bwaaaaahhhhhh! Bwaaahh!!!

jesus! the amount of rat poo in the pedal pan was insane!

Better put a stock carb on it's going to be more reliable than this aftermarket Chinese one

So guys, I just bought myself a 1979 Westfalia the other day... where should I start taking it apart? what shouldn't I do. I'm planning on doing a complete restoration of it

vai fica top...vão deixa na cor branca??

Looking great! Do you have a estimated timeline for completion?

Did you spray penitrating oil on it and leave it for a few days to get the bolt off?

was that a beer can coil ?

How often are you going to upload videos ?

Have you got any further with the VW bus?

Dude what happened to conversion? I thought you bought the other engine? To tell you the truth I'm glad you stayed all VW. I'm old school.

Hey, How is the progress, I would love to see an update. I have been working on my 72

how much did you spend on the buss to start?

Any updates to the bus restoration??

may I ask how much, roughly, you proof for this beauty

Hi there, love what your doing, but so much needs to be purchased new again, how much do you think the whole project will cost?

where did u get your hoodie!!!

Where did u get your hoodie!?

What site do you use for buying VW bus parts?

It's been 5 months Clark where is 3

for the brake, did you just cleaned it or you bought a hole new kit? Thank you

Should have just given it few drops of WD-40 and the bolts would have unscrewed on their own!

Where's the Orange one???

Is there an episode 3?

What's that tool called he used to release the external shaft nut anyone know ?

CLR works better and faster also

Hey you guys, really enjoy watching you work on your bus. I like your style of vlog, I am new to it and trying some stuff out, check out my project bus, maybe we will meet up on the road some day.

Is that a bus engine or a bug engine. ? check out Mustie1 on You Tube.

Fairly worthless... you talk a lot but when you replaced your rear brake shoes we get a before and after shot? How does this help?
