In this weeks Electric Samba Project, Jehu finally decides to install some windows on the 23 Window Deluxe Electric Microbus. It's been a long time coming, and everyone has asked for it, so here it is finally he begins working on it. It's still not done of course, but at least there's a light at the end of the Tunnel.
We'll be attending a weekend car show in Solvang this weekend starting September 26th thru the 28. Come out and meet us and check out the Electric Samba Project, we'd love to take you out for a ride in the Electric Bus.
You can find more info about the event on this website: http://www.ggcvvwca.org./index.php/solvang

  6. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Angel Marquez says:

    Are your planning to build a complete version or just playing around? . I would like to see your finish electric prototype

  7. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Cesar Abraham says:

    Sounds Like you guys got a project, but where is all your safety goggles/Glasses, Dust masks and welding hood, don't you guys care about SAFETY?  

  8. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Ruski Ryan says:

    PAINT THAT BUS!

  9. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Kombi Life says:

    Yeah boys! Nice job!  Hope to see you end of October.

    Comment: wouldn't it be better to paint the upper sky window frames before installing them? I noticed on the sky windows you only have primer but it looks like some rusty coming through the primer. Might be mistaken but you surely don't want those windows to rust out premature. Windows are a pain until you get the hang of them. Not something you want to do more than once. Your ride is looking good. Nice to see windows going in.

    Very nice bro

  12. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Jeff Southern says:

    Looking good…. That made my finger tips sore just watching it…

  13. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars bgdexter says:

    Whoa, Jehu! Not wearing UV protection while welding is definitely a no-go, especially if showing this on youtube.

  14. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars michel bertrand says:

    that is hard work Jehu , I just did 4 windshields on porsche 911s and my arms are still hurting ,not to mention my neck. Same process with the string

  15. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Ian Darley says:

    Soap or vegetable glycerine on the outside of the rubber makes a world of difference.
