A heads up for future content. I am putting together a series on autobody / restoration basics and techniques. This will not replace the VW project, but rather supplement the channel by adding some additional content especially focused on those who are learning the trade and/or hobby of restoring cars. If there is something you'd like to see more detailed in a future video PLEASE let me know in the comments and I will add it to the list. Next week's video is about the bare minimum tools you will need to get started along with a few money saving tips. Thank-you very much for watching and I hope you have enjoyed the content.

Smart move using that perfectly good section from the old frame for the extension. I imagine that strap idea would have taken a lot longer than theorized to make work.

Thank-you. I try to make use of as much of the offcuts as possible. It’s often easier (like this example) and it’s just more economically and environmentally responsible to reuse/recycle when possible. Thanks for your input!

Good job interested in doing my own body work. Basics will work for me, tools setting up welder, metal gauge, etc

Thank-you sir. Bodywork is a great thing to learn. It doesn’t take any super skills, just some patience and persistence. I appreciate you taking the time to check out my slowly growing channel.

Yes, frame restoration entails much work. I'm restoring a 78 FJ40 frame to use in a project to make a FJ45 pickup with vids on my new channel. To have a really good frame base I'll need to take out the inner frame rails, lots of rivets, to get to the inside of the outer frame rails.

Sounds like a fun project, those old FJs are really nice rides! I’ll have to check out your channel, thanks for stopping by 😁

I've been working on FJ40s since 2003, even had a FJ40 used parts business for twenty years. The beauty is that from 58-83 lots of parts are inter-changeable, @@CowboyGarage

What happened to the fuel line, it was dangling in the way and then removed?

Nice attention to detail. After fighting with it in the way for a bit I decided that I should probably replace the fuel line while I'm doing everything else and so I just removed it from the tunnel. I had filmed a bit about that and then the footage came out awful so I cut it and simply forgot to mention it in the voiceover. I'm still new to all this and learning as I go so I'll miss stuff like that from time to time. I appreciate your input and helping cover all the little details that I miss.
