With a car restoration you can go as deep as you want, but remember you can always go deeper. I can see you are getting sucked in, and you might need to set your expectations to how far you want to take things. If you want it show room perfect, then sure any bit of grease or dirt needs to come off, but if you want it respectable and drivable, then you don't need to worry about going that deep.

it needs lots of sanding, but the rust is not terrible. Most of the rust is still surface rust, and still sandable. The right quarter angel is missing the bottom and needs replaced. There is no interior, so I will have to figure that out. The engine and transmission did not come installed, but freshly rebuilt. But overall it is in good shape, and plan on starting on it as soon as I finish with getting the 68 type 3 fastback front end completed.

@01:32 Is that Volkswagen Anarok behind the vendor's table? How is it possible since Anarok isn't officially imported to the United States and isn't modified to meet US FMVSS? Does it have Mexican numberplates, which would explain its presence in Texas?

Mic! You're enthusiasm is SO infectious. I used to have a '63 bus. LOVED that ride! Lots of fun in it. ;) Also had an old bug and a Squareback I used to go abalone diving in up in Northern CA in the 80s and 90s. I have a friend who restored a VW truck and did a KZfaq vid or two on, you can see it here; kzfaq.info/get/bejne/aZ5oYLSVzcfNYoE.html He made a 'rotisserie' to work on it, he's a very creative engineer, and it made his work a lot easier. Check his KZfaq page. I wonder if he knows about Klassic Fab...??? He must! I'll send him a link to this video. We'll be in Hawaii (big island) for eleven days in April, so I'll keep an eye out for you to say hello (you're in Kona? or is that just one of the places you go?) Taking my Mavic 2 and a bunch of GoPro, Oslo Pocket, etc gear to take videos. Any insights you'd like to share on places to get great footage from the drone while there without encountering friction from the local authorities? Be much appreciated! Thanks again for all you hard work on being a great KZfaq asset, I really love your videos. They always make me happy.
