in this episode we continue to get the brakes in working order by replacing the main line and rust proofing the floor while we have it apart, after that we go and see how well they work, and as it turns out not so good, the old saying two steps forward one step back.

Good memories. If someone can't get out with a VW bug, you can't get out. I didn't realize the new dog was from the pound. In my opinion, the best way if someone wants a dog for the family. The stained-glass turtle will be adorable. Impressed!

Another fine job on an old bug. You said you were going to hit it with 2 in 1 rust converter. I had a very bad experience using that stuff, after one year the acid in that stuff began leaching through the paint. I did let it dry good for One week. I'll Never never use that product on my vehicles. Just made a ton more work on my frames I restored. Just a word of caution.

My first VW was a 1952 ? split window while I was in based in Germany. Cable operated brakes and no heat, still it was a great car and when the engine died, I only had to go to the base auto shop to get another off the junk pile, I got to where I could do a engine swap in under 45 minutes. I've had four more since then and all were great cars. I miss the beetle!

Very enjoyable, had a short shifter in my 70, but when I shortened the chassis and made a Dune Buggy with a real Meyers Manx body, that bushing and I became close friends. A real pita to change. Gotta take the tunnel cover off as I recall.but it’s been over 40 years.

A suggestion, when you moved the rug out of the way, there was some surface rust, you couldsome black paint or some sticky insulation to replace that original insulation, plus it would serve as a sound deadner, regarding the fastback,I believe you can take the body of the chassis, give it a proper restoration,, that would also serve as a vlog or video since you don*t see many fastbacks anymore.

Mustie1 and everyone. Remember they are now selling Flex seal by the gallon. White and black color. I just did a Concrete pool's concrete hot with the stuff over the winter here in Arizona. Stuff is working amazing. Should say the concrete had very small surface pits from years of wear. No major cracks . Would be perfect for a car floor interior re coat. Found it went on better using 2" rubber trowel than a paint brush. But brush for any hard to reach areas. Also completely pre wash with Alcohol. Seemed to make the product stick in place. One more thing. bought mine at the local Ace in the paint department.
