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
