Ep 321 Eric Justus Type 34 racer 55 Oval youngest DKP Member
Eric Justus grew up in Southern California, the son of a VW enthusiast Bill Justus. Bill was known for putting on some of the VW panic events in the mid 90s. Eric grew up with that as a foundation. Moving onto Street cars he obtained Type 34 ghia he decided he was going to make it a drag car. It was quite infamous in the early days as it was at Carlsbad Raceway quite a bit drag racing and he had that big type three moving pretty quick. After he sold it he took a step back for a little bit to fool around with some hot rods before jumping back into his 1955 window is incredibly detailed really fast. You can tell once you spot the kirkey seats that this thing is all business. We cover quite a few topics and it's more of a Freeform conversation in the middle but it's a great podcast. I know you'll love it. Enjoy. www.letstalkdubs.com www.vwtrendsmagazine.com www.rosswulf.com Check out ICON Pistons here

In this episode, I’m joined by Lee Bushaw and Joey Girodano from Workstat Restoration to break down everything that went down during VW Revival Weekend in Southern California. After seeing the buzz all over Facebook, I knew I had to get these guys on the mic to recap the multiple Volkswagen events that made the weekend one for the books. We kick things off with the legendary DKK (Der Kleiner Kampfwagens) Cruise Night on Friday, then dive into the Saturday coin toss: do you hit OCTO Bus Meet in Long Beach, or the **Rare Vintage Air Concours d’Elegance in Huntington Beach? We talk about who went where and why, plus the vibes at the ISP West Open House on Saturday afternoon. Finally, we dig into Sunday’s debut of the VW Revival Show—an event aiming to bring back the classic VW show weekend energy. Did it live up to the hype? Was it the spark the scene needed? Tune in as we talk split-window buses, slammed Ghias, show politics, and the future of classic Volkswagen events. --- Would you like a shorter version for podcast platforms that have character limits (like Spotify or Apple Podcasts)? www.letstalkdubs.com www.vwtrendsmagazine.com www.rosswulf.com use Code LTD10 for 10% off your order www.thewagen.com

Ep 318 Why VW Cooling Technology Needed an Upgrade – Andrig Miller’s Quest for Better Air-Cooled Performance
In the world of classic VW technology, innovation often comes from the enthusiasts—not the factory. That’s exactly the case with Andrig Miller of Andrig’s Air Cooled Technology, who took it upon himself to improve one of the most overlooked components in air-cooled Volkswagen engines: the cooling fan. In this episode of Let’s Talk Dubs, we dive deep into the development of a new **high-efficiency VW cooling fan** engineered for lower drag and increased airflow at low RPM. We cover how Andrig tackled the age-old challenge of VW fan efficiency, the science behind airflow and thermal management, and the process of prototyping and testing to meet performance goals. If you're passionate about air-cooled VW engine performance upgrades, cooling system innovation, or just love hearing how modern tech is pushing vintage VWs forward, this one’s for you. www.letstalkdubs.com www.rosswulf.com Use Discount code LTD10 for 10% off on your purchase on Rosswulf website. www.vwtrendsmagazine.com BUY ICON PISTONS HERE
