Barn Find of classic Volkswagens (closed VW dealership)

Let's make the K7 CU. You told me the K70 was there. launch of there was a yes, yes, there are some pictures of it somewhere um of um of that, I think my mom is about 12, so yes, you choose your car, you choose your color, do you like that one sir? , you're going to buy one, aren't you? I'll try to see that they are all acetate outlines of the different Ws, yeah, that's cool. They accumulate everywhere. I look at the AI ​​Coupe brooch, oh my gosh, it goes on and on and on, oh my gosh, there's stuff everywhere. to certify that James Edward Molanu of Gem Motor Services has successfully completed the Volkswagen service course.

Look at the relief image of Wolfsburg. When did you get this? This course on February 65. Yeah, there's a promotional poster here that's pretty PC. I actually forgot they made this look so I guess they sold it in Japan. I guess yeah, yeah, problem, it's like a proper cardboard cutout and you have signs like big promotional posters and stuff, yeah, awesome stuff, wow, he did it. I don't like throwing things because you don't, he didn't like throwing things, that's why you're still sorting everything, yes I've got plates on there that tell you how much Mot cost in 1983 £540, damn it, oh no that's a motorcycle 9 pounds, right?

Get this and get viewers to see Herby promotional material that you would sell at the

dealership

or give away. decal kits is that, yeah I think those are things that seem to keep the kids busy and hopefully mom and dad will buy a VW, that's basically the idea. I guess so, volksvagen, everyone, everyone needs one, everyone, everyone. Enthusiasts, yes, a VW tie and a tie bag over there I saw that also keep yourself organized, a brilliant promotion has to be a promotion from the oil crisis era, the

dealership

, you see all the different eras of the dealership, which I like, as you say, the different launches that will have taken place.

The lights fall from the sky meanwhile, you have a stronger spark, don't you? By putting a different battery in and connecting it made it spin faster with a huge battery, yes, wedged in there, yes, fuel supplies ready to rock and roll, a different rotor. arm, it just happened, yeah, turns out I have some stitches on my Beetle even though I don't have any stitches on it. Long story, he had a spare distributor, but anyway we think we could make it sizzle this time, well that's definitely it. Better than it was, isn't it? It's trying to shoot now I don't know why it was whistling, well there was something and I can smell the fuel, yeah it was like shooting from the side, how it was like something was shooting. out of here, I don't know how, where do you have all the plugs, right?

Yeah, and the fuel tube is connected well to the side of the bowl, yeah, we don't want to overload it, that's always my mine. I'm worried that it's really hard to get that balance, but yeah, it was shooting well, well that's better than it was, it was definitely very slow before, yeah, it's spinning better and it's shooting, so yeah, do you want to go back? To do it? Uh, yeah, yeah. Come on, oh come on, oh my gosh, so close, wait a second, I don't know if there's anything open here, is it that pipe? It's hissing out of that.

I think there might be a big divide in these arches, yeah, between the entrances I can't feel any real holes there it's whistling like hell out there oh maybe yeah, sure, I've got duct tape, yeah, you won't understand it, but it won't make it that it sticks if it is made of oily rubber. All I've done is undo the clamp on the distributor so I can turn it, yes, because it looks like it's a little bit off, but it's very hard to see because it's actually in the wrong place and it's hard to see if it's completely aligned. but I don't want to turn it until we've tried it again.

Do you want to time it again until you know it's not? Then you want to start the engine while you loosen the clamp. Yes, actually, wait because we were. I'm starting to think maybe the timing is out even though you haven't adjusted it at all since it was parked. We have changed the cover. We have changed the rotor arm. We have changed the points, yes, and we have turned the cables on and off. or we have, yes, the leadership, uh, yes, all the drivers have disengaged and everyone is definitely in the right place. Tim, yeah, just asking, just checking, you know, you got it.

Yes, actually, sparks come out of it, like burning embers coming out. that Inlet I've never heard of this what do you think we should do then wrap a band? No, it is not an electric spark. It's like a burning. Should we wrap it with a bandage or something? You know what we still don't know exactly? What's wrong with the bus engine? But it needs to be rebuilt. We know anyway and 24 hours after filming, Tim told me in a message. I think the inlet valve must be open, that must be what causes it to rise again and fire.

It went out once, it turned the intake manifold rubber on and off and that's what we think is the problem with this little bus, so at this point in the

barn

it's where it's getting dark and you're thinking how far you're going to chase all this, the batter is running out of the B, well, we're running out of a lot of batteries, so this is where I think, because we don't have the real parts and we're out of time, we're really going to have to say: I'm afraid I really thought we were going to start this truck today and I'm gutted.

I'm gutted to throw in the towel, but I think we're going to have to throw in the towel. It's been a really lovely day to see this though. and I heard all the Amazing Stories, the sentimental stories about this truck and I'm so glad you guys resurrected it and brought it back to glory and it's so good to see a VW type four again for the first time in years and it's so good to see all those stock photos and videos from um gema Jem, the Volkswagen dealer, is a pleasure for us, very very cool, so I hope that if by any chance you get this working in the next few weeks, please let me know. send me a video yeah put a couple of bellows and a couple of exactly so thank you for watching this great episode of the late break show if you have a car a vehicle that you think is of interest you want me to go and Dig , try and turn on.
