- WB UTE BUILD #10 - WHAT DID WE FIND AFTER SAND BLASTING COMPLETED??? SO MANY BAD PATCHES!!! I now know the damage of what was under that rust on the wheel arch and also all around the Ute, we start grinding off some bad welds to find out how BAD, GOOD it maybe. you wont believe what patching we find - Let the work begin

All caught up, enjoying the progress, looking forward to the next vid. Cheers.
happy to have you caught all up, i just finished editing the next 2 vids.
@@goldshiftgarage Awesome!
Great job Lee. Boy you have some work in front of you, but at least by starting your not going backwards!! Enjoy your videos. Keep em coming
i glad your enjoying the build, i sure do have my work ahead of me. i figure once you start you can just keep progressing little by little and your right - im not going backwards 👍
Oooh a lot more than I was expecting, but seems pretty manageable mate! Nothing better than a nice clean canvas though!
yeah mate a few of those patches were unexpected that's for sure. still manageable to replace / repair so the challenge is excepted LOL, it sure is nice to see it taken back to bare metal.
Trays are always good. Holden galvanised then. Not like Ford.
Use rust prevention fluids and waxes . Recommend epoxy priming then using a 3M cavity wax [most cannot do vertical surfaces ] with 1mtr wand kit . 3M Cav wax takes 3mths to dry . 3M Cav wax hangs great inside doors . It does have some penetration of overlap joints . There are dedicated waxes for this as well .
Once finished final rust proof with Steel seal by Lanotec is an option ..Would describe this as more for wheel arches under body areas . Great for hard to access areas and durable .
Beaware many rust proof products donot come to ozzy
3M seem to have some great products when it comes to restorations, i didnt know about the waxes. thanks for info i appreciate it
Replace the rocker panels with repo's saving you from welding a hodge podge of patches and it will tidy up the sharpness of the body line.
thanks for the advice, one peice would be better than a heap of small patches 👍
good stuff, following this build
thanks for watching, let the hard work begin 👍
@goldshiftgarage lol, I got a HZ ute. I'm a newb toold cars and have a lot to learn. I reckon I'll learn a lot from your videos.
@@Jarvo325 thanks mate, i have heaps to learn also but im having a crack. i speak to guys on here and share idea's so if you have any questions just sing out 👍
Definitely will, thanks for the offer.@@goldshiftgarage
Gasless mig id say, some serious bodge!
i didnt think about that! you may be right, luckily i bought Gas with my setup. yeah its left me with some work but it was never meant to be easy they say 👍
It's a bit of an emotional rollercoaster sandblasting. Some parts are better than expected, some parts are worse and then it uncovers damage you had no idea about 😂
@The-State-of-it it sure is, i new about most of the rust effected area's but those patches...... didn't see that coming hahaha. nothing time n patience wont fix. i guess the hard work degins now
Maaaate, you gota replace those previous patches, they are chookshit x100. check for weld penetration on the back side i doubt theres any looking how shit the welds were before grinding. Most of those panels can be brought and welded in. Close enough is good enough and do your best and fill the rest is its
only an old holden😂
They were utter rubbish hey, ive ordered some sills x 2 and some sheet metal for the patching. when i get home from shift - then im into it 👍
Crikeys, I'm not a pro welder but I feel like one after seeing some of those! But hey, nothing you can't fix and it still looked ok when the filler was over it.
haha i don't feel bad atm either after seeing those welds ( hope mine are better ) haha, its left me a bit of work ahead thats for sure, how's yours coming along?
@@goldshiftgarage Yeah just welded in the plenum top cowl couple of days ago, it was hard to drill all those holes into a nice $600+ piece of metal I can tell you! Can't say it fit that great as I had to push it down hard in one corner to make those square holes line up but it seems ok now. About to get real on the primer and sanding of the body next. Shed's getting a touch warrm now so sweaty days ahead, 😞
@@oo0Spyder0oo sounds like things are coming along nicely! its never a easy task rebuilding these old girls. gotta say i do love the challenge though. hot days coming up indeed.
Might be quicker and easier to replace the 1/4 panels. I did on my WB ute, easier than you think.
thanks mate, is it just a matter of unpicking the 1/4 panel skin and replacing? it may be worth doing that
Probably a shooters Ute ... the whole in the roof looks like a spotlight mount.
You may be right, i was thinking a promo ute as you could almost make out some lettering down both sides of the body. either way i have to fix it 😁
