This week on Let's Talk Dubs, I'm joined by Jake and Taylor from Clement Kustoms. These guys are building cars from the ground up in their home garage, figuring things out themselves, and bringing everyone along through their YouTube channel. That hard work earned them a golden ticket to SEMA—an all-expenses-paid trip and the chance to compete in the Battle of the Builders Young Guns competition. We talk about the road from their garage to the SEMA show floor, what it felt like to put their build in front of the industry, and the experience of taking it all in for the first time. Jake and Taylor bring the creativity, enthusiasm, and hands-on attitude that keep this hobby moving forward. We need more young people building, learning, and making these cars their own—and these two are doing exactly that.

From a Super Beetle in the early '80s to a turbocharged '65 and an award-winning VW Thing, Shane Constantinescu has plenty of stories to tell. This week on Let's Talk Dubs, Shane joins us to share his journey through the air-cooled Volkswagen world. Based in Vancouver, British Columbia, and now splitting time between Canada and Las Vegas, he gives us a firsthand look at the differences between the two VW scenes—the cars, the people, and the culture that keeps enthusiasts coming back. Like many of us, Shane's story includes early builds, raising kids, and a break from the hobby before jumping back in. His return brought turbocharged horsepower and a 2012 PRA championship in his class. We also get into his custom VW Thing, the "Silver Surfer," and the work Tommy Street put into bringing it together. With its lowered stance, Iozzio Galaxy wheels, safari windshield, and ragtop, this Thing has personality to spare. It caught Andy Finch's eye at One Crazy Weekend 2026, taking home his Spikes Vintage Restoration award. It's a conversation about fast Volkswagens, fresh ideas, old friendships, and a passion that follows you across borders. Tune in for Episode 377: "Canadian Thing" with Shane Constantinescu.

What an incredible weekend! This week on Let's Talk Dubs, I'm joined by Joey Giordano from Werkstat Restorations and Andy Finch from Spike's Vintage Restoration to recap One Crazy Weekend 2026 in Las Vegas. We talk Baja builds, preparations for a 600-mile road trip to the show, and the Wednesday-night Baja cruise down the Las Vegas Strip. Then we dig into the Baja trail run—how it went, what stood out, and the stories that came out of it—before reliving the rest of an unforgettable VW weekend. There's also the poker tournament, the strip cruise, the car show and poker run. Oh, I almost forgot the pool party as well so much to talk about. From getting the cars ready to bringing everyone together, this episode gives you a behind-the-scenes look at what goes into One Crazy Weekend and what makes it so much fun. Whether you joined us in Vegas or want to know what you missed, pull up a chair and enjoy the recap. A huge thank-you to everyone who showed up, volunteered, sponsored, and supported the event. You're the reason this weekend keeps growing, and we can't wait to do it all again in 2027! 15% off of Hot VWs subscription www.rosswulf.com use code LTD10 for 10%off www.vwtrendsmagazine.com
Finding the right vintage Volkswagen or that one hard-to-find part should be part of the fun. For longtime VW enthusiast and collector Chris Picco, searching classifieds on a phone often felt harder than it needed to be. From his home in Ontario, Canada, he decided to build the kind of marketplace he wanted to use. Chris created **VWTraders.com**, a free Volkswagen classifieds site designed to be easy to browse and open to buyers and sellers around the world. It's his way of giving back to the hobby and helping VW people connect over the cars and parts they love. In Episode 374, Chris joins me to talk about how he first got into Volkswagens, the cars and experiences that shaped his passion, and what it took to turn an idea into a site for the VW community. We also get into the challenges of buying and selling in today's classifieds market and what Chris hopes VWTraders.com can offer enthusiasts worldwide. Whether you're hunting for your next project, looking for parts, or just enjoy hearing how VW people turn a passion into something useful for the scene, check out this conversation with Chris Picco. Enjoy the episode!
Danny Foerster has spent years working in the automotive industry, specializing in fuel injection, tuning, and programming. As an air-cooled Volkswagen enthusiast, he saw the need for an EFI system that was reliable, easy to install, and truly designed for the everyday VW owner. The result is the Forster Performance plug-and-play fuel-injection system. In this episode, Danny explains how he developed one of the most comprehensive EFI conversions available for a stock Volkswagen engine. The goal was simple: create a true "set it and forget it" system that works right out of the box. No more fighting with a 34 PICT-3 carburetor, changing jets for different elevations, dealing with cold-start problems, or constantly adjusting the engine as driving conditions change. We dig into how electronic fuel injection works, the programming and testing behind Danny's system, and the decisions he made to keep the installation as straightforward as possible. This kit gives your stock Beetle modern drivability while preserving the character and simplicity that make air-cooled Volkswagens so much fun. Also who would complain about an 8hp gain & 11lbft of torque The Foerster Performance EFI kit is available through Red-E Motorsports and Washburn's Metal. Dam Volks in Boulder City, Nevada, also has a kit available. enjoy Buy EFI here or Red E Motorsports Follow Foerster Performance HERE Danny's Facebook
