I don't know how we get such great looking kids from our ugly mugs. That was a beautiful bride. I'm very interested in this build. Can't wait for the next post!

Be so cool to come by and drink a people's beer with u. Keep living the dream Merlin.

Cool little build. Congratulations to the bride

Awwwww such a beautiful bride and cute couple! Congrats!!!!

Who wouldn’t want to share a Pepsi with Merlin? Cheers! Thanks again for another great video 😀🇺🇸

I can't tell you how happy I am to see you paint your welds unlike Paul and Robbie just so they can sit there and watch their welds rust in peace

very cool building a car from the ground up again very cool dont forget the cold snack holders

HES A LUCKY DUDE ! ❤HAPPY MOTHERS DAY TO YOUR WIFE & ALL THE MOMS OUT THERE❤ GOT 3 DOZEN FOR MOM WHITE & YELLOW & RED . THERE FROM MY SISTERS EAST COAST & ME.

This is gonna be cool, always interesting Merlin. Wedding pics were very nice, bride was beautiful, location was awesome, congrats to all and best wishes. Can't wait to see what's next!

A person does not realize all the work and effort to build a kit car! No wonder there were so many of them started but never finished! Great work Merlin!!

Dang.. all this time I thought Kieran was already hitched, Congratulations 👍😎✊

Your expertise in building and fabrication consistently impresses me

We all wish the fiberglass parts actually fit. The fiberglass front end on my Nova was and still is a bunch of work. Nice to see a fellow sufferers

Gonna be a cool build. Congratulations to the newlyweds, and the proud parents!

beautiful daughter on her special day. great progress on the 550

Walking your daughter down the isle is a special gift. Congratulations and many years of bliss to the newlyweds.

Congratulations Merlin on your daughter's wedding. I hope that it was a wonderful wedding that you guys enjoyed every day of it. May they have a wonderful life together and her husband

Congratulations on the wedding. And love the Porsche project

Congrats on the wedding cameo with the model T. The Spyder will be a web of intriguing challenges.

After seeing your shop, Fab Rats, Chads, Matt’s and others on KZfaq I have a theory. Shops are like closets, no matter how large or many at some point they get filled up.

Just adding in the headlight buckets gave the whole front end the start of it's personality. Cool build and a lovely daughter!

A very kool project. I'm interested to see it all finished and raced!

Congratulation to your daughter and her brand new Husband stunning Bride

A lot of work done on the 550, and you got the daughter married off, that's good progress!

Congratulations to the bride and groom!

🎉🎉 congratulations miss Kieran🎉🎉 and also congratulations merlin on the new build...🎉🎉

Absolutely Awesome!! Congratulations on the marriage! God bless you all and give you a lifetime of joy!

WOW! What a build! Really cool Merlin! Looking forward to the finish of this build!

All the other channels use a grinder to cut sheet metal. Finally somebody like me using the plasma. Like a knife, just need a guide.

The 550 Spyder is one of my all time favorite dream cars. That is going to be an awesome project. I hope you bring us along on the full build and your first track day with it. The Giant Killer will stalk the tracks again.

Hand built Porsche spider car that's very special. Nice job!

Merlin, thank you for inspiring me, and gain trust in people again. Not only did you give me back my Shade Tree mechanic you put a warm spot in my heart. I was in your neighborhood picking up a muffler for a friend's VW bus. Had to go by your place. Love the Cummins boat. Thank you for being you....

Huge congratulations to Mrs. Kierin!! She looks absolutely beautiful! Really cool of Craig and Sue to bring you that Pepsi machine, too. This little 550 project is going to be cool. One of my favorite euro cars from the 50’s next to the Gullwing.

Merlin the Magician. Congrats to the Newlyweds. Can hardly wait till the car is running!😎🤙

Congrats on your daughter getting married!! You have a grear life it looks like!!

Congratulations, it's always a blessing to add to your family. We wish them all the love and happiness.

That looked like a fantastic day and arriving in style congratulations Kieran on your wedding, can’t wait to see the end result of the Porsche

Ive always liked the idea of retro fitting a 550 Spider body over a Porsche Boxer.

Paint it silver and the words little bastard on the rear. 😂😂

Merlin is having the kit car blues. I feel for ya buddy. I know exactly what you are going through.

Modify on the fly. Snip and assemble. This is custom kit style engineering! Looking forward to seeing you zip around the track.

its amazing watching you building this, stage by stage, your knowledge is impeccable, so glad im here to see it all happening, thanks for sharing

Congratulations Merlin, man you clean up pretty good. Congratulations to Kieran and her new hubby. You amaze me in your knowledge of building a car from scratch. Watching you and Paul Cox doing all this fabrication makes a man want to go out and build something. Will be waiting for the next chapter on this build. Stay safe and God Bless.

I seen a late 40’s international tow truck for sale in Wickenburg and thought of you. lol

Congratulations to the newlyweds and that 550 is going to be sick. And if that body isn't sponsored I wouldn't shy away from telling the truth of any fitment issues. That way if you end up encouraging someone to build one they know ahead of time.

Sweet little wedding. Sweet little build. Gonna be fun racing that.

Congratulations! What a beautiful family

Congratulations to the Newlyweds. Merlin, this build is gonna be out of this world. Can hardly wait until it gets completed and on the road. Thank you for sharing this build.😊

Love the Shotgun Wedding photo.

Rattle can fore the win . What a Pretty place for a wedding ! You gained a Son like I did ! I have herd that Fiberglass Kit cars are a Pain ! Sure looks that way . And Happy Mothers day to your Wife !

The epitome of cool. Love that car you're building.

Congratulations Kieran! You are a beautiful bride!

Congratulations to your daughter! Great old Pepsi machine I worked on those many times over the years. The build on the car is looking great,Thanks again for your videos

She was a beautiful bride. Congratulations

Very cool, free Pepsi at Merlin's. Another reason to swing by...

Love the family content and the build ❤🇺🇸❤️

Congratulations on the wedding and the project looks really good You're one of the best builders I've ever seen Merlin

Happy to see Merlins or a pocket full of washers. 😂

She was a glowing happy Bride! Congratulations 🎉🍾

What a SCORE on the Pepsi Dispenser ! So Jealous !

The shotgun in the wedding photo was a nice touch 😁

What a happy event, congratulations all. How about putting the doors on the hinges and letting Robbie sort it. That would be a snap for him. Looking forward to seeing this build unfold. If you are stuck Jerry could help you. This is his favourite car. Jerry Seinfeld that is. About time he picked up a spanner. Thanks Jeff. Sydney Australia.

Your fabrication skills are Amazing! Looking forward to seeing the finished product!

Very cool Merlin. Your daughter looked gorgeous! And you shined up pretty nicely yourself. Wishing your daughter and her new husband a wonderful life ❤

If I know you Merlin your going to Build a BadAss Porsche❤ I can only imagine how BadAss it's going to be whenever your done with it Merlin.❤

CONGRATULATIONS Kieran You have an incredible Dad…… 🎊 🎉👍 God Bless you in your new adventure girl

Love watching your builds Merlin !!!

Hey Merlin, I find it amazing the number of projects you come up with !

Crispy autumn day early morning hot lap around the local road course . 😎

You have work in so many dune buggy lately. The Porche is just a gorrified Volkwagen Beetle so it would be a piece of cake

What a fabulous build in progress. Merlin for the win,you pulled another few rabbits out of your hat in this video. Congrats to your daughter an better half. Love the channel. Keep up the great work. ✌️👍🤙🤙😁😎🍀🍀🍀🍀🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲 🪄🪄🪄.

That was so awesome for driving your Model-T to the wedding (a showing us a snippet) 👍👍

Sir congratulations on your daughter's marriage also my opinion of vws they looked best upside down and on fire but watching you and Paul has changed my mind and watching you work on this project is very enjoyable you are a very talented man keep up the great work and we'll keep watching thanks again for great vids Chris

Merlin, You are the Man, I love your show, you are something else.😄❤👍A Man who knows what he wants and dose it.

Love the Porsche build Merlin coming on nicely send our congratulations to your Daughter and her husband from us 🎉 keep up the good work 👍

Congratulations Kieran!! Long happy life to you both! Best Wishes! Merlin, you make building cars so easy! You're the best!

This car is going to be hella cool.

That was a unique wedding. Love her dress!

You’ve got to know having the best viewers means that you have one of the best channels and the content is always fresh !! Such a down to earth viewing channel 😎

Awesome build Mr. Merlin

Omg. Congratulations on your wedding. Look forward to the whole video. Hopefully!,,

Greetings from Long Beach and Topock. Really like that you show so much progress in your videos instead of tagging us along. Thanks for your content and hard work.

It's a kit just put it together like a model car right ? We wish life was that simple. I got involved with helping a friend trying to build a Cobra replica, similar challenges nothing fits as it should. Looked like a nice wedding with select friends and family instead of a stressful waste .

Congratulations Kieran

The Porsche Spyder kit it coming along looking good so far. Should be a real fun car to drive once you are done.

Fun stuff setting up doors, I suicided my 29 pickup doors and replaced all the wood with steel. I built the doors from door skins and made power windows work in the inner door boxes I made. Lot's of T&E (trial and error)....😊

Congratulations Kierin! 🎉🥳

Thanks, beautiful bride and ride.

i have a dream of building one of these into a Safari 550.

Really enjoyed this video, love the VW work.

CONGRATS!

Time lapse fabrication is so nice Merlin. I love the Pepsi machine idea (always have) and that machine is '80s so there is a way to bypass the slot and have it dispense for free. Also thinking of anyone could bypass the lock latch...its you 👽🗿👽🗿👽

The Bride was absolutely beautiful as was your bride Merlin! The Porsche is going to be a beautiful addition to your fleet! It will be a solid, well built car that should give you and your wife lots of fun going to cruise inns ! I remember when I was young, a girl I knew, her dad had an original Porsche Speeder back in the 60's. Wanted it bad but didn't have the $700. that he told me he would sell it to me for! LOL! Those were good times! Thanks for a great video! P.S. That's a way better chassis than the original! Keed up the good work~!

I just had a thought . Put an Olds. Toronado front end in the rear works better on a volkswagon van but you might be able to or maybe a lot newer a 3500 impala front end in the rear that little car would really scoot . The Toronado front end I saw was in a van and he had wheely bars . Two stage adjustable , He had a 350 instead of a 455 ,nearly wrecked it the first run air pressure was so great at 150 it popped the windshield in. He repaired and strengthened the front body but never went that fast ever again, his arm and shoulders hurt like hell for a couple weeks. He mainly popped wheelys withit in parades, he got a drag rail frame with a 400 chevy V-8 and a 400 turbo-hydro with slicks and a shortened front so he could weld a beetle body on it. My car was taking more of my time and I lost track of him after awhile but was able to ride in the beetle, at 90 mph the front fenders started flapping like wings.The guys last name was Upper and he acted like it.

I am so glade to see that I am not the only person that has to fight with thangs , do one and and still have a problem with the other side.
