Hats off to you Taylor for rescuing this beetle and bringing it back to life. Can already see it’s going to be awesome when you’re done. Being an oval, it’s worth all the time and money to save it
I know the feeling.. that is why I completely stripped all paint and way to thick Bondo off my 59 deluxe...cut out all hidden rust holes and major Dents that were covered over and filled in with Bondo...I then used aMaytag metal and hand formed patches..I welded them in using flux core...It will end up with Body filler but minumal amount applied properly...I'm using urethane primer, paint and clear coat by speedokote...Red and black..1959 was my year of birth... Rebelya is her name...
@@wickedwerks spring? Haha!! I’m in Florida so it’s either hot af or not quite as hot af 😂 Had shoulder surgery so hoping to be healed up enough to get back out there and get shit done.

Well, that’s what makes it a challenge… seems like you want it bad enough so go after it!
Oh and those chunks are bondo islands! 😂
Oh I already have! 😂 lots of progress has been made in the last few weeks. She’s plugging along slowly. Thanks for watching!

Wow check that filler out ,just like my 64 bug in U.K. . Of coarse you will get this oval done and back on the road 👍
Checkout Rods VW Garage .He’s finishing up a oval .He did the body work and painted it.Sweet car
Definitely do a 36hp with split case trans
Unfortunately, traded the only split case trans I had for the ragtop clip. I’ve got a ‘67 trans that I guess has similar gearing.
Go for it boys 😂
Damn that is scary bug
It’s not /that/ bad 😂
Haha, oh dear!
This car must have been owned by hippies in the 60s or 70s. The shag carpet is from the early 70s. I'm sure it was at a lot of Dead concerts!
how dare you
