One thing we loved about our trip to Santa Pod Raceway was the variety cars that were fast that looked like they shouldn’t be. Like this old Volkswagen Bus, van, truck, or whatever you want to call it – we’re still undecided. It has a billet, air-cooled, 3.0L rear mounted engine, it’s shaped like a brick, and manages to crack 8 second passes in the quarter mile. Who wouldn’t love that?

What an absolutely beautiful VW and even better owner!
My neighbor has one of these "trucks" all original but he won't sell it. I can't blame him cause neither would I.
I had several bugs when I was younger, being 61 now i recently purchased a 63 ragtop and another 68.
They're both Baja which isn't my favorite but I'm having fun with them.
I love these type of videos, keep up the good work!
Phenomenal vehicle, Alex the owner is such a nice guy and has been racing VW Busses a long time now.
Flying Brick, no Aerodynamics!
Picking something silly to make fast is the soul of hot rodding. Good job! Its a sick ride
beautiful build thxs
this must be the coolest VW in Europe if not the planet 😀
As a fellow owner/driver of a 1968 single cab, I love this. Mine takes nine seconds just getting through the intersection!
No video on that drag Elise at the start seems like a damn shame
NICE!!! This truck is very cool.
Fun fact a vw bus is more aerodynamic than a vw bug. It’s proper name would be a VW “transporter” from what I know. Here in NorCal we had Bugorama at Sac race way which is now closing down. All VW drags all day. Dad is a vw nerd have been around them my whole life. Such a rad drag single cab. Super rare rig
That’d be scary up the front
I don't think there is an6 dodgy engineering here st all. Brilliant mate
VW Bus with a billet 4-cylinder 3L boxer on methanol. With big slicks, full tube chassis, parachute and a wheelie bar. Now that is something you really don't see every day! 😎🤟
I dig it!
💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗
Absolutely love the VW Buses. I plan to own a fun one some day soon.
That is cool and cool looking.
Awesome video and that dude’s a great guy
Not a bus .
It’s not a Volkswagen, click bait. If you wrap the shell around an F-16 jet engine with a little sheet metal, would you still call Volkswagen? Of course you would. 👎🏻
Love vw's
That's Outstanding!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Awesome to see someone do something incredibly unique and keeping the horiz opposed 4 cyl rear engine! Love to see the creativity and engineering together.
❤❤❤
Hello from California bro. Freaking nice !!!
I know the car is safe. But the drivers position in these vans always made me nervous when i drove them….lol
Glad you showed his face.
Man must have Titanium balls driving right in the Nose at those speeds.
Shame it’s not a daily driver.
that type 2 is not classified as "bus". That's a pickup or transporter.
Awesome rig, he should be proud of himself. Love it!
Our neighbor had a Volkswagen van that one day he was tired of it. He got out his trusty chainsaw and went to turning his van into a truck. By that night he had himself a truck. The Burtuckian Hillbillies from Burton Michigan
Fantastic truck. I would love to own it.
Sick VW. Humble man.
Made my day watching his engineering and outlook on competition. Everyone should be so humble.❤
What a brilliant concept I love it what a true engineering marvel this is.
What an awesome bus. Well engineered and executed!!!
Great vehicle, great driver 👍
This is THE proper fast delivery pick up Kombi.😊
All things considered, this thing launches soo good. A real testament to the suspension configuration.. well done!, 8s out of a Bus, wow mate! congrats!
What a Genuine guy! That VW truck/bus/wagon is badass!! Good stuff!
😂😊 hell yeah I love you from California watching the video that’s OK he’ll be back in beat all the other ones
❤😊 that is still damn fast for that bus or truck. Keep up the good work and I like the guys accent.
❤😂😮😊 run in the eights there is a company in England called ES motors and they got a Porsche 99 one that does that and that’s fast he said the record in Germany this year
❤😂😊 that’s one hell of a sweet 68 bus which we caught on the tracks here in California that’s sweet is hell in my car don’t smell
