Using the starter to move the it, hey doesn’t that officially make it a hybrid vehicle? Thanks for another fun video.

This made me smile, seeing the VW truck back was like welcoming an old friend home after they had been away for some time.

This sweet work van puts a smile on my face every time I see it. Cars and trucks used to have such friendly faces. It's all angry terminator robots today.

Dang, time flies!!!! Doesn't seem like it was a year ago. Always enjoy the channel Mustie1!!!

I'm German and I love these old "Luftgekühlten" Great work

Good Morning and HAPPY MOTHERS DAY to all the moms out there

Oh my heart skipped a beat Darren when I saw crusty again. I was under the impression you'd sold him, after all he's worth a fortune. So good to see you just lent him out for a year. So happy to see his return Darren so happy. Great video as usual, love the channel.

Everybody should have a chance to give up something they love for a year to a museum. Must be great to have her back. I definitely enjoyed the no-talk cruising part. Happy cruising!

There were more air-cooled VWs at that show than there are in all of Germany. Thanks for taking us along.

Great story. A Volk’s Wagon from a Junk Yard in Vermont bought back to life and put in a car museum. Not many people have accomplished that. I have learned so much about carburetors from your channel. Great video Mustie 1

I have been a member of larz Anderson auto museum for years. One of Boston's best-kept secrets.

I love seeing the old vw again, I'm happy she's back home safe and sound, its the coolest vw out of the bunch.

Man seems like it was just a few moths back you took him there. Nice ride along the shoreline there.

Interesting to see FDR plugging the port in the carb at 26:00. Creative use of a plug cheaper than anything you could buy.

So good to see Crusty again! I came to your channel for the VW content years and years ago, you were still working on Lucy. Would love to see more VW's!

Must be an absolute honour having your car in a museum I’m jealous love you mustie

Thank you so much for the ride Mustie! It's been so many years since i visited my last aircooled meeting and i really miss the rides. It was nice to be the passenger this time :) Those roads and the scenery are beautiful, lots of bends and undulations, like they're made for aircooled VW's Welcome back Crusty and good luck with the lawnmower :D

Here in Canada that ball on your wheel is illegal unless you are disable, it's interesting how different the laws are in two neighboring places like main and New brunswick and also new Hampshire. I love watching these perspective videos makes you feel as though you are right there with you mustie. Beautiful place you live in. God bless you sir.

We used to aim that accelerator pump nozzle at the edge of the venturi where it stuck out so it would make a nice spray pattern when the gas hit it. Worked great if you could get it aimed right.

Oh man, I bought a 62 VW bug with a sun roof during the summer of 70 right before going off to college. Can't tell you of the learning I did under the bug , occassionly with the engine on a piece of plywood and keepin her running. Brought back plenty of memories on your ride home lookin out that windshield. Love the split. Thanks for the walk and the ride down memory lane. Bought my first metric wrench set also a pop rivet gun for that girl. Again, thanks!!!!!

Yay! It's the Mustie and Crusty Show again! Very cool to see Crusty back. The resurrection was one of my favorite series of yours and on KZfaq. Thanks for taking us along for the ride.

I love the simplicity and engineering that went into this vehicle!

Thanks for taking me for a ride around my old stomping grounds, although it has been forty years since I was there as an airman at the base. Fox Run Mall had just opened. Beautiful area, but I shoveled enough snow for a lifetime!

I've been going to the Lars Anderson museum since I was a kid off and on. It's amazing to see how they find some of their awesome display cars. Congratulations!

Welcome home crusty

Seems that automobile enthusiasts are the best crowd to hang out with, everyone you met there, and pretty much everyone at any other meet you've taken us to, are really nice folks. That little girl trying to see the bubbles was so adorable, all the dogs too. What a quaint area, very relaxed, the road trip had me dozing off, but I like towns like that. No doubt in my mind that you'll have that mower going quickly, there isn't too much that can be wrong with an engine that age. :-)

I don't believe it's been a year since Crustie went to the Museum! Still he's back, a nice ride out and some swag on the way home! What's not to like!

Time flies. It did not seem like it has been that long a go we watched the video of you taking it to the museum.

Funny the Museum didn't leave a pan underneath. Good to see Crusty home where he belongs. Been awhile since we have seen a VW video from you. I discovered you on VW and cool motorbikes you made. Of course I have seen all of your videos. You are the VW King. Just ask 5150vw and Josh. I still laugh when I saw the video where Josh told 5150vw to get Mustie1 to fix it. It was great. Still love the collaborative adventures with both you and 5150vw do/did. VeeDub love. Good work Mustie1. From a fellow East Coaster, representing right!

Yeah!! Its a Sunday and it's a Mustie1 Day 😊👍 I really and sincerely look forward to this time. Make my day and week watching and hanging out while you do some wrenching.. Better then any thing you'll find on TV 👌

Thank you so much for that relaxing video, I have health issues, and don't hardly get out, It was so nice to see all that open road and nice country buildings and homes, you made my day! I Love all your videos!

Crusti is home👍🏡😍... That was a beautiful Tour Sir. Thank you for taking us with you!

That cruise was quite nice, thanks for taking us along for the ride. The plastic filter isn't the issue, it is the weight of the filter on the carb fitting. Also, that braided fuel line just don;t cut it with modern fuel blends, even without ethanol. 5 mm fuel line rated for modern fuels is now readily available, and fits properly. I use FI clamps, the don;t cut into the hose like screw type clamps. I also runt he filter over the trans, jsut after the tank. It should be on the input side of the pump, even if it is int he engine compartment. I have to admit, though it is always fun seeing what you drag home to resurrect, this time around felt good to me. Knowing exactly what you were doing, and how to do it was somehow pleasing. I just pulled a bug out of storage today, that had sat all winter. Fired right up once the carb bowl filled. Gonna start driving that rusty pile this week! My 68 single cab and 66 beetle are next on the list for driver status.

Fun ride around Portsmouth NH ... driven 1B And 1A So many times in countless modes of transportation ... the road into Hampton Beach is wicked fun on a motorcycle .... thanks for the ride!

Wow how time flies... Good to see you and Crusty back together again.. Thanks for the ride along cool VW show.. Enjoy all your videos keep up the great work 👍

This virtual ride was well appreciated Mustie. Thank you for sharing.

Never knew the accelerator pump cover could warp. Always learning when I watch your videos. Neat cruise, the countryside up there is beautiful.

Glad to see you have my favorite Volkswagen back home..your wrenching on the VW's brought me to your channel..my namesake Uncle Charles made a living restoring VW's after his retirement from the air force..so watching you work on them takes me back to some great memories..thank you for doing what you do.☺️👍

That museum should be in a museum. It’s beautiful.

LOL at "runs like a kitten".....engine dies. Great you got Crustie home and are giving him some TLC. Looks like you all had a great drive in the country.

its official, Mustie1 famous. loved the ride round too

Feels like yesterday you dropped it off, Wow time flys

Thanks for sharing a part of your world with us. That ride to the VW owners gathering was great!

Thanks for the shop time and tour Mustie1!

The cruise back home was awesome the view of the ocean was nice thanks for the video Mustie always great content!!!!!!

Great to see Krusty back; doesn't seem like a year. Thanks for taking us cruising, thoroughly enjoyed the drive. I did a lot of miles around Scotland in a microbus of about the same vintage, mostly as a passenger(so the view from that seat is familiar), or loafing in the back - great memories. Sadly, the bus and it's driver have passed into history. Excellent video.👍

Theres no greater feeling than a type 2 or Vanagon convoy. Really lifts your spirits to know you're not alone in your total madness.... I also have a steering wheel knob in my 85 Vanagon. Not strictly legal in the UK but it sure makes steering easier!

VW provide their own music.Thanks for the ride and the show.

It's funny when you recognize the roads that Mustie was traveling on. The trip started 5 minutes from my cousin's house, and that park where the car show was is only 5 minutes from where I spent summer vacations as a kid.

Don’t worry about the oil leaks- automatic rust control! 😆

The drive along Rt 1a brought back memories when I grew up there many years ago.

Ultimate compliment is getting a vehicle in a museum! Goes to show you doesn’t have to be a high dollar frame off resto! “Rustorstion” as you call it is just fine! Surprised Mrs. Mustie didn’t want to come along. My favorite VW Is a Ghia…lowered with Larry Hoovers! That red station Wagon was dope! Hope you had a great time! 🇺🇸🔧🦅🤙🏻

Another awesome video Daren, glad to see our old pal Krusty back in the house. Loved the nice tour you took us on through your town. Hope you are having a great day and happy mothers day to all the moms and grand moms out there.

Thanks, Mustie 1. It's been about twelve years since my last air-cooled VW, so I really enjoyed this. I kind of don't understand myself and the allure that the air-cooled VW's have for me. My whole life they have drawn me in. Every time I think that I've had enough experiences with them, they have a way of creeping back into my life. And there's always the memory of the one I let get away and regretted. It was a sweetie '68 Deluxe Beetle wearing baby blue. I still have hope that one day it will find me again.

Thank you for the leisurely drive through New England. A lot of us never get to see that part of the country. I've always been curious about day to day life out that way.

What a great cruise! Brings back memories from when I was a kid, my family was from New Market and we always took trips to Rye Beach and getting ice cream at Lone Oak formerly named Big Scoop. In my mid 40's now and haven't been back that way since I was a teenager...thanks for the trip 👍

Really nice to see a VW update from you. I enjoy all your content hugely, but it was the VWs that originally lead me to your channel. I look forward to you hopefully uploading some more content on the old aircooleds. All the best from the UK 🇬🇧

That cop at 31.30 must have been thinking "Soooo no speeders in THIS direction 🤦‍♂️"😂

I know this truck inside and out! Better than my own vehicles sure. And I'm under those often enough. Crusty's rise from the ashes is a great series of videos for those that haven't seen them.

Nice ride. Thanks for taking us along.

HEY! Heck yes my Sunday is now off to a good start ! YEEHAW !!

Neat little museum, I stumbled across it when I was in that area and had some time to kill a few years ago. The absolute icing on the cake that just made my day was the display just inside the front door at the time was a jag xj220, supercars aren't really my thing, but it was always one of my favorites.

They couldn't of picked a more beautiful day to take that ride that was amazing thank you for taking us along as the ride

Darren, that was fun. Good to see Crusty back home.

Glad to see "ole" krusty back home and the cruise in her was fantastic. Another great start to my Sunday. Thanks Mustie...now off to my shop to work on my '73 body off

Mustie my wife and I brought a 73’ bus Sportsmobile back to life inspired by your years of videos! I was watching crusty’s cruise today and hoping you might do a video on properly adjusting steering. Or what is the proper free play on bus steering? Thx Mustie for sharing, love your channel!

It's nice that you got your truck back. It's a very good looking and running ride.

Damn. I go up to Mass every few weeks.. and when it got nice, I was going to go visit Crusty! Luv ya, Mustie

Totally agree.. never had a inline filter like that fail.. but have definitely had them fuel lines turn to mush or goo lol.. great vids mustie👍👍😁😁😁

has it seriously been a year already? wow, how time flies (Edit: fixed my bad spelling)

Saw you and the group drive by while running a half marathon, most classic VWs I’ve seen in a while

that trailer was probably one of your best investments, glad that people got to see it.

Welcome home Crusty, Mustie in his element working on one of his baby’s. Good to see him home receiving some well needed love, soon be cruising around town and showing off in the parades. Happy mothers day to all n the US TOM UK

Love Crusty! Mustie I have a question. Would you do a video on all of your fleet one day? I just noticed that you have the blue tundra? Would love to see the hoard of vehicles you have running and in process. PLEASE from a fan in CA

Afternoon mate 👍

Thanks for the ride Darren ! Very pleasant. Man, those old New England small cities are nice. No damn "Power Center" and Walmarts to be seen around ! 👍😊

Thats so cool to see a vehicle come back from a decades long slumber in a junkyard and see it being enjoyed and used reliably!! Such a shame so many classics were junked long before their time was due. I did the same style rebuild/revival on a 47 chevy wrecker truck that was in a junkyard for 40+ years. Its a good feeling.

Welcome home old friend! Btw that’s the exact same engine as on my lawnmower (plastic carb and everything) no idle circuit on it for years, no matter what I do. So looking forward to the video on that one! Maybe after that I can fix mine.

I don't know how far away that actually was but it was such a nice drive. Thanks for bringing us along!

Awesome road trip, Crusty never missed a beat.Great passenger seat moment. Many thanks.

Hey Mustie how’s it going I came across your show about 6 months ago and I have to say I have enjoyed every episode I have watched starting with the bringing back to life an old green marine engine about 6 years ago and just love your enthusiasm , your ability to explain what you are doing and what to look out for when working on stuff I especially love all the vdub content as I have owned and worked on 1972 , 1973 ,1978 buses 1x 1972 dual cab I put a Chevy Corvair engine and transaxle in the 73 and had a lot of fun with that back in 1979 Love the show keep up the great work Regards from Brian Brisbane Australia

Brian is my favourite character in the "Mustieverse" 🤙😉 I'd like to welcome his hair back again. 👍 So much less threatening than shaved head Brian. 🤪

Nice to have it home!

Always good to see a Crusty video, and the seaside scenery and mansions were gorgeous. I was thinking about VWs earlier this week after going through a box of old photos that included my Dad and Mom and their camper van and Type II (think that's is right, my sis drove it all through college.) Good memories. If you ever make it to Kansas, you have friends you have just not yet met.

Gadzooooks. Another mustie

Good stuff Bud!! Good to see Crusty back on the road again!!☻

You know spring has sprung when crusty comes out. It is has become a channel tradition, Welcome home crusty. Now we viewers need some yard sale vids.

I remember the video of the parade you participated in for the shut ins during the dark days of the virus. It was very touching to see the people out waving for a minute of joy.

I find the sound of these old air cooled VW engines to be relaxing for some reason. How long do they typically last between rebuilds?

I remember my first time seeing this truck in person and getting to meet you as well, that is one thing I'll never forget..

Glad to see Ol' Crusty home again. Can't believe it has been a year already.

One other fire hazard to look at is to make sure the metal fuel line that goes thru the hole in the rear tin is still there. Sometimes people will use a straight piece of hose from the fuel pump thru the hole in the tin and to the fuel hose under the car. As time goes by the sharp edges of the hole in the tin will wear into the rubber hose causing a leak and potential fire.

As soon as you showed fuel coming out from where the lever pushes the diaphragm on the accelerator pump, I immediately guessed the diaphragm is what went bad. When you pulled the diaphragm out it helped me test knowledge, slowly but surely I'm learning more about cars. Especially from old timers and the internet. Also that push mower might potentially just have bad gas in the bowl if you end up having spark and it pops on a little fuel.

I never knew there were so many different kinds of VW's! Some of those are awesome!

She runs good. Thanks much. Great spring ride & show. Ride home was best.

Did you drive in on to the lift by cranking the motor while in gear?

Crusty is back! All is right in the world again! Thanks for sharing 🇨🇦

Enjoyed the ride back from the meet. Interesting to see a part of the country that I've never been to. Thanks for the ride along

Great to see Crusty out and about again, thanks for sharing. 🖖👍👊😊

My cat Jazz and I really enjoyed the ocean drive with Crusty! We're in the midst of dodging tornadoes here and working on our 1996 Honda Odyssey. Thanks so much Darren!
