I definitely think you're doing better than some people , keep up the good work saving an old vw is a wonderful thing on how bad of shape it was and you can say you did all the work yourself..

Great work! Just remember there is a short lifespan on those organic vapour masks once opened. They will filter dust and some fumes for quite a while, but truely harmful vapors.... You got maybe 4 to 5 hours before the charcoal is full and no longer keeps them from entering your lungs. I date and time stamp my cartridges with a sharpie, then use them only for dust after 5hrs of use in one day. Cheers!

Yes, and I believe that if you open them and only use them for a short time (e.g. an hour or so), you should store them in a ziplock bag between uses, still throwing them out once the overall elapsed time/life is expired. That's how we manage the life of them here, where they're not required often and only for short duration tasks.

G’day Andrew your doing a very good job and your picking up skills along the way, it is good to see that you are taking time on her and it will show. Mallory is lovely and it’s great that she is there with you, I’m 66 and you get to notice things, I really enjoy the channel and it’s nice to see a non professional having a go not like a pro you normally see.

Dude, the cover that covers the track of the sliding door is put on with the door open, you didn't have to have cut the tab for the screw, and on the other hand, the height of the sheet that holds the glass rubber is very high, it there is about two millimeters left over, you can cut the rubber on the glass when putting it on, peace and good work

I have heard some horror stories about the glass needing to be shaved down from the aftermarket brands like "fuyao" which is the kind of bought but some say theirs went in without any issues! super nervous to try and get mine back in once i repair the rust ! let me know how yours or your buddy's go!
