Well, this is an unexpected answer! We asked Spook, "Are VW buses safe?" As usual, he's a straight shooter in his answer. After you watch, let us know what you think! Also, here's what's going on this week in the shop: - Tom's VW Trike is about to... well, you'll see. - Range's 1952 VW Beetle Ragtop Zwitter is getting some attention while we wait for more parts to come in. - Dan's 1967 VW 21 Window Bus is looking solid these days! Check out what's new and what's coming. Very kool also to see the advances in what's available for replacement parts even since we started the build.

Easy – you get Spook. A vintage steel restoration guru with a passion for paint, Spook dreamed of Airkooled Kustoms long before opening the shop in Hazel Green in 2004. The mastermind behind the proprietary processes that yield darkside dubs that Volkswagen and Porsche enthusiasts drool over, Spook doesn’t do anything halfway. Ask him about buying a classic air-cooled vehicle made by Airkooled Kustoms, and you’ll probably be surprised to hear him advise against it. See, the process is long, it’s expensive, and it requires a level of commitment few would-be buyers possess. The process is not cheap. It is not for the faint of heart. If you CAN settle for anything other than driving an Airkooled Kustoms Classic Volkswagen or Porsche, you should. If settling is simply impossible, you should contact us and get your dream car onto the always-full production schedule.
