Thanks for pointing out the drainage point. The previous owners of mine had fixed the rust there and filled in the hole which really only made things worse.
Hi Joe, again a great video is clear, and welding metal tips are always a pleasure to follow you while doing what you like doing, with the great fitment of the details.well-done buddy. see you in the next video👍🏻🙏🏻🇮🇪.🇳🇴🇳🇱greetings, Hubertus
Awsome. I am taking notes. I just had my "free" brazilian made 1990 combi bus delivered yesterday. Actually it was better than free, as it was abandoned in a container of a client that died, and the estate paid me to take it along with a 2002 Toyota Hilux (long story). I still have not had a chance to go through it in detail, but mechanically it runs and appears to be all there. It has a horrendously bad paint job, that is so bad it is falling off on its own. I think I would like to restore it to the orginal yellow. Few small rust spots. Few bad bondo patches in some corners. frame and structure is solid. Never looked closely at a VW in my life, and took me about 5 minutes to figure everything out. I find the simplicity of the VW is the beauty, and I am rapidly falling in love with this one, even though I do not consider myself a VW person.
Nope, learning to weld has been on my to do list for years. I use to work in a body shop as a teenager, so I know that part of the skill set. Just never learned to weld. Going to buy a mig welder now. I need a project to justify it to my wife. 😆
I have already figured out the financing of the restoration. I have a 13 year-old nephew, lives next door, chomping at the bit to do a project with his uncle. He is my ticket to an unlimited restoration budget from my wife. I have no kids, so he will inherit it anyway. 😆 😆 🤣

Watching you paint the kurust, you could be mistaken for young Don Conroy
