The "reputable" shop estimate for Buster the Bus just keeps getting crazier. Today, we’re talking about the brakes on my 1973 VW Westfalia. The quote for a brake booster alone was a staggering $3,800. Instead of writing that check, I rolled up my sleeves (and did a lot of part-hunting). I managed to do the entire brake system—not just the booster—for only $267. I’m 60 years old, I’m learning as I go, and I’m proving that owning a vintage VW doesn't have to break the bank if you’re willing to do the research yourself. In this video, I’m breaking down the cost difference and why it’s so important to get a second opinion (or just do it yourself!). What’s in this video: The breakdown of the $3,800 brake estimate. How I sourced parts for the entire system for under $300. Encouragement for fellow Westy owners to take control of their repairs. #VWBus #1973Westfalia #BrakeBooster #BudgetRestoration #BusterTheBus #WomenWhoRepair #VWType2 #AircooledVW #DIYBrakes

SUBSCRIBE OUR CHANNEL https://www.youtube.com/c/theboatshow/?sub_confirmation=1 We had a very extreme adrenaline experience just few weeks ago...and we could not wait to share it with you! Now we can! We were aboard Fsd 195 by Ferretti Security & Defense, a 20-meter hi-tech Patrol Boat capable of exceeding 50 knots with two 1900 horsepower MAN engines. It is very agile to perform any action very quickly. The control area is technological but also very comfortable because the clarity of the crew is essential to operate in dramatic (or critical) situations. Enjoy this images and get ready to see the full boat reaview, it'll be ready soooon! By Maurizio Bulleri The Boat Show
