    No music to irritate my ear, just the sound of tools working.

    I like the shorts, but seeing all of them in a continuous video is fantastic. The attention to future rust prevention is thorough, and educational. Best of all is watching you fabricate and weld in new patch pieces. Your experience with metal work is brilliant! I look forward to seeing future videos of your work. Great to watch a bus being brought back to life.

    Cool bus. I just recently bought a 62 11 window bus, thankfully it’s not to rusty. That’s a pretty epic door repair!!!! I restored a 67 13 window for a customer a few years back. You sure like a challenge, I will give u that.

    • @BrandonsBus
      @BrandonsBus  Рік тому +4

      If I had to do it all over Id use panel bond instead of so much spot welding, but its worth separating the outer skin to get it all cleaned up. Getting the hinges right is definitely the trickiest part. Good luck!

      Ive had a few doors practice to get this one right, it was the last door of the bus. Metal can be manipulated and shaped, if it doesn't fit right just keep working it until it does!

    Just a little tip, go to a VW meet and ask if you can take crucial measurements of the main body. Like the A to B pillar distance, don't rely on the IGP doglegs for measurements.
