Love watching you work. You do everything ‘Old School’ like me. No tattoos, big beards or weird hats on trying to be cool. Just high end work being done on a low budget. Coming along so nice, can’t wait to see the oval painted!

In the mid 60's I drove a '54 oval window VW from Germany to the south of France and back again. The study little car handled the autobahn of Germany as well as it did the mountains of Switzerland and northern Italy. The little bug took a tour of the race course in Monaco before going back home. Good luck with your project

Really appreciate the way you get down to business. My goal isn't a show car but a daily driver. Its been years since my last vw so I am anxious to get it on the street. My friends and I are in our 70s and don't get in a big hurry. Really enjoy the videos.

Watching the magic happen ! That apron moved like cooked spaghetti.

Looks like a walk in the park compared to that bus you just finished 👍😊

There's something you usually don't see. Mike on the floor welding up. It's amazing how you bring back parts that look so bad.

So glad to see you are able to get back on the 67.

Hey Mike...I'm finishing up a 60' Beetle project right now. I used a Spot sand blast gun (The kind with a little hopper on the gun at Harbor Freight) with soda media and blasted inside the engine vent area. Scuffed what I could reach by hand before I sealed it. It turned out really well! And only took about an hour to strip 3 coats of paint inside all the little vents! This car is coming along faster than I thought! You're inspiring to get to my 55'!!! Thanks!

txs for sharing...good save, you're the, "MAN"

Just keep doing what your doing,I’m amazed how you create,your work shows it really good video 👍👍👍😎😎😎

Really nice job on the rear end of the VW 🤣😎🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

The KG is coming along nice and on the parts video you did I had saved up enough for a 90.5 and big valve head kit and bingo we all caught the COVID . So the parts $ became the bill $. I am starting a new piggy bank. + I need to see if there is anyone down here that bores the case, without going to S.A. There was a man here in Inglesde that did it . but by now if he is still alive he would be in his 90s.

This is going to be such a great VW when you get it done !! Thanks for bringing us along Mike!!👍🇺🇸👍

Nice to see a solid 50 to 60 year old parts that are solid and savable. Keep up the good work! 😎👉🚘

As always....Bad A.. Fab work there!!!!!!👍👍

Nice work Mike - thanks for sharing :)

Very nice work! Nice Bug

Really makes my day to see these videos Mike - your doing an amazing job keeping these air cooled wonders alive - greetings from UK

Spray/Brush some Phosphoric Acid and neutralize the rust then sand where needed? Always great and always learning something new.

Really enjoying this build, always consistent progress and things done well.

Can’t believe how well that deck lid fit. Couldn’t slide a razor blade through the gaps!

You make look it easy!!

Good work Mike

Good work again loving your vids

awesome job once again!

This is so inspiring! 😊👍

My recently purchased '63 has the tailpipe cutouts covered over similar to what you did there. I didn't think about it being for more stiffness, just thought it was because it had custom exhaust on it before.

Man I been looking at all your videos your a bad ass cat . I seen that tool you made to put on the clips going to make mines tomorrow

Hi Mike, as usual🇺🇸, nice metalwork and taking care of the original parts👍🏻, they are difficult enough to get in the open marked well done😊 see you at the next vid.Greetings. HCS🇳🇴☮

Great job!

Aí sim em mão ✋ na lata e bora lida...bom trabalho

I'm surprised you covered the peashooter cut outs, although I can see the strength gain....

question my old bug has been on jack stands tires flat now they won't hold air any tricks ? learned alot watching you good advice

You did a nice job. Where did you get the clips you mounted in the video to the hold the hub on the rims?

Filled exhaust cutouts. A touch of Cal look going on or did the early ovals not have them? Nice work and attention to detail as always!

You did the Service VW Truck w/a Boom, right?

That looks like an H apron...did someone cut out the exhaust cut outs for a later muffler?

Just curious, Mike. Why do you sand as opposed to blasting or chemical stripping?

👍🍻

Like your no non sense way of restoring vehicles. You go straight to it. Most of these cars are drivers and not Concourse vehicles. Getting them in the road quickly is great! That’s what I am doing with my 68 Mustang! Thank you!

Very nice work! Nice Bug
