WE FINALLY FINISHED THE BEETLE PROJECT!

After weeks of work, countless setbacks, and more troubleshooting than expected… we finally got this 1978 Volkswagen Beetle running again. This project started with a car that had been sitting for nearly twenty years. What followed was a full engine rebuild, multiple mistakes along the way, and a lot of time spent trying to figure out what was actually wrong. In this final episode, we track down the last issues, replace the remaining faulty parts, and attempt to start the engine once more. This is the moment everything has been building up to — will it finally run? And this time… things go differently. This Beetle project has been a huge learning experience for both of us. Not just in rebuilding an engine, but in understanding how everything works together, and how small issues can keep a car from running at all. A big thank you to everyone who followed along and shared tips in the comments — it genuinely helped us get this car back on the road.
