Gabriel: What we have here is one of the oldest Volkswagen Bugs in the country. The collector owns some of the rarest Beetles you can find. Narrator: Gabriel's love for Volkswagens doesn't stop at buses, though. Back then it was a working man's truck, so ain't no room for chrome. They didn't come this way, just so you know. Back in the day, people did work, just like now, and they needed trucks. I know from the front it looks like one of the other buses, but this is not a "bus," per se it's actually a double-cab little truck. Something completely different right here. But true collectors understand that these are super rare.Īll right. I want the 21." 'Cause they're just, you know. But people always say, "Oh, I want the 21. Believe it or not, these are actually the rarest, because there are only 15 windows. There's no bus out there that has this color combo. I'm a big comic-book guy, and so I like the "Iron Man" colors, 'cause Iron Man's my favorite character, and so these are very much close to those colors. Narrator: Gabriel works closely with a team of experts to restore his newest additions to the collection and help keep all his "metal babies" in running order. We wanted to put something a little bit more elegant, and we thought that this color scheme was something that looked really, like, "Wow, look at that, you're gonna be afraid to get it dirty." Probably wouldn't wanna take it into the woods now. It was completely white, and it was kinda boring, kinda boring Camper. So the car went from Southern California, to Germany, back to Southern California. I actually purchased it from a guy in Germany, who had purchased it from a guy in Southern California. Gabriel: Right here we have a 1967 Westfalia Camper. Narrator: Gabriel says he built his Fluffy Museum to resemble the famous Volkswagen factory in Wolfsburg, Germany, with his own choices of artwork and Fluffy pieces. No, I have no intention of selling, but at the end of the day, as soon as I'm gone, and when I mean gone, this is gonna be turned into a museum for the city of Long Beach. I talked to Jay Leno, and Jay told me, he says, "You know what?" He says, "People are gonna tell you to invest your money certain ways." He goes, "But with me," he goes, "I like the cars, because, first of all, if they're classic, it is an investment, it's an investment you can enjoy, so you can drive them, and when you sell them, they'll be worth more."Įach one of these is valued somewhere between $100,000 to $200,000. Gabriel: Why did I become interested in collecting Volkswagen buses? Because I don't have a cocaine problem and I needed somewhere to spend the money, honestly. Gabriel's going to take us through what he calls "The Fluffy Museum" and give us a look at some of his personal favorite buses, as well as a few other rare rides he owns. Iglesias." We're taking a tour of his enormous garage, which features a collection of classic Volkswagen buses worth more than $3 million.
#Gabriel iglesias bus driver series
Narrator: This is Gabriel Iglesias, everyone's favorite "fluffy" comedian and star of the Netflix series "Mr. It's truly priceless, but we're accepting offers. You’ll also get to know Iglesias a little more, too.Gabriel: The value of the collection? It's truly priceless. You won’t stop laughing from beginning to end. I’m trying my best not to spoil too much, but this is a special worth watching on Netflix, even if you are not much of a Gabriel Iglesias fan yourself.

During that, it became more of a rock concert for himself and his audience. While viewers understood the references (even I understood what he was referring to), he wanted everyone to reflect on their views and set them aside to make a difference in the world.Īs this special marked 20 years of comedic gold for Iglesias, he highlighted his first two fans who came to see him for his first show, and still followed his career today. His bus driver, Dave, was described as one of the true definitions of ‘Murica. The second half of the show is what Iglesias wanted to tell his audience. Gabriel Iglesias talks about Houston, his son Frankie, and Vicente Fernandez in his new Netflix special filmed in Houston’s Toyota Center. Not only it was “just a special”, but it was also a tribute to the mother in his life. Iglesias became a little emotional when he told the story of his late mother who met her favorite Mexican singer, Vicente Fernandez in which he hilariously described as the “Mexican Elvis, only difference is that he is still alive”. The 42-year-old comedian did what he does best: making his audience laugh, roasting his now 19-year-old son, Frankie and poking a little fun at Hispanic culture.īut this special was a little different than his previous specials.

On January 29, that same special was dropped on Netflix. About a year after Hurricane Harvey brushed through the Houston area, Comedian Gabriel “Fluffy” Iglesias announced that he would film a Netflix special titled “One Show Fits All” at the Toyota Center.
