Vw Beetle Heater Channel Replacement & Crossmember Rust Repair - 1958 Ragtop Rusty Bug Revival
Вставка
- Опубліковано 30 вер 2024
- The 1958 Vw Beetle ragtop revival continues with heater channel replacement. This rusty Vw Bug needs a lot of metal work, let's weld in some new steel. Next Vids we will finish the A & B pillars and weld in a new inner fender well. .
I found this forgotten old car sitting in a garage a few years ago. It had been sitting in a field before and the Volkswagen Beetle was pulled from it's soon to be grave. Follow along on the journey of the restoration videos as this car will be back on the streets.

Your lucky to have Larry as a friend, he's a wealth of knowledge and you two work well together.
Good to see the little man still has a sense of humor.
Peace ✌
Very lucky , thank you Mike
Looking good Jason always remember clean nozzle correct wire speed and heat adjustment you shouldn't hear all this spuddery splattery noise when your welding the surface isn't clean enough or something to do with the before mentioned. I used to use a nozzle spray as well and never try to clean the nozzle by beating it to death on something no bueno 😁👍
It's great to see more progress, Jason. It's going to be awesome to see that puppy when she's cruising! Even though Larry doesn't approve of some repairs, I'm sure it's not that far off. You guys are doing a great job, I'm enjoying every minute of it!

Be mindful of your whip, if you run a tight radius it will feed erratically.
Josh giving Some big encouragement!!!😂🤣😅
Haha! My biggest critic
Interesting work; awesome! Josh is funny…🤣

Hey hey hey it's looking good J man ! You sure can tell who that boys dad is ! Good job men !
Project looking really good now the floors in Jason.
Thank you Bmxr
Larry has the patients of a saint 😂🤣😂 Good job ☘️👍
Yes he does , we thank you John
Nice video, looks like Larry’s tips on material movement are paying off
1st! I was waiting for more!
That old horse has a world of vw knowledge. Great progress. Thanks from. Sc
This is great too see and better is the constant crackling (like frying bacon) of your welds and seeing the heat getting the penetration in the steel. I'm glad Larry is helping and guiding you. Perfect was when Larry got good ground and you tacked something after and I hear whoa, yet a good ground is crucial. You're doing great with this car, it's gonna be an instant classic. Currently I an repairing both my rear quarters on the Impala. So much welding. Cut and butt is the best way to repair body panels.
I'm looking forward to driving my Impala up to see you and your toys, especially that Camaro. I have my eyes on that car. Hope you still have it. Take care my friend, always good to see new videos from you. The ending is a real tease.
Well there is always a grinder!.....Those inner pan welds are the hardest to penetrate. Those plugs you really need the heat up because there is double layer underneath. Otherwise they can pop off. Best to almost burn a hole. The Pan sheet metal should be melting holes in it to get the underneath hot enough to stick. (double layer 18 gauge)
Heat selector 17 or 18v wire speed around 160-170
HA! Your heir apparent returns ! Kind regards Alex
Haha, yep ..made him grind those awful welds 😆
Excelente

larry would make a great shop teacher,
Really been enjoying this series Jason. Way to go on getting in there and going for it. Larry is a great teacher. You are blessed to have his support. God Bless
the teacher , the teacher , where would we be -with out the teacher , lol lost .
This is a great series. You and Larry are hilarious. Great welding info and very entertaining.
thank you so much. i was needing a body on heater channel and floor pan replacement video. i really appreciate how you videoed a lot of the teaching moments.
you are very welcome , Larry is a great teacher with tons of experience
Who else closed their eyes while he was welding?
Yes. 1
First!
Love Larry’s “Tutelage”! I really enjoy watching. Larry knows so much, I wish I had a vintage bug.
thanks so much for sharing this...!
thank you for checking it out WMMoM
I'm enjoying the series...and I guess the more welding you do the better you get. Great job 👏 👍 😊
great to hear Todd, we thank you....yes i better get better soon , grinding sucks haha
watching from England and enjoying your journey, does Larry have a you tube channel ?
great to hear, we thank you....no, he enjoys saving them not recording and editing them haha :)
Welding by Ray Charles?
"There you go son" ....too funny
Haha yes it was 🤣
You’re getting a life time of knowledge from this guy.
Great video... U guys are doing awesome job. Can't wait to see it going down the road... Came along way keep up the amazing work.
Great series. I've saved these as the proper way to do this job and align things so that it is correct. There's a few recent videos from another popular UA-cam VW channel that is the opposite of this! Great stuff. Keep it up!
A welding class at your local junior College or voc Ed center is really cheap,easy,only requires a couple hours a week AND imagine the money in grinding wheels,grinders,having to cut back out and redo a section time that you'll save plus be much more confident that the welds you're putting down won't fail shortly after you sell or trade of whatever you're working on.. Migs make welding look easy but also allows many failures due to deceptive looking welds..
Nice work Jason,everyday a school day and we’re all learning from Larry 👍
I know that pan off is preferred but the fiddling for fitment pays off in the final alignment. Great job. Thanks for taking us along and inspiring us.
My dad used to say "you don't have to be good at welding ,but you do need to be good at grinding ,afterwards"
Cringeworthy welding by Jason, not approved by Larry!
Dubworks did this in a unheated garage by himself it took a bit but he had a limited budget
hell yeah he did💪
I love this series and I’m glade you have a friend willing to show you some of his knowledge. I wish I had a friend like larry
Your welds sound off to me. I think you should try turning down the wire feed speed slightly.
Evening
yep
Good job!
Thank you
It's looking fantastic so far. Great to watch. 😊
It"s the "BEST", I hope you continue to absorb all the "Larry's" magic, tanks for sharing...
I have learned a lot from Larry and very blessed to have him . Thank you Tom
