  • So after wanting banded steels on the golf since i very first brought the car, i've finally got around to doing the mk2's original wheels. After deciding that i'd band and paint them myself it's took a while, but i'm very happy with how the car looks now. I hope you enjoy and thanks for watching -Beth

      @Jupp Schlabutt it may be a folkscar as you call it (which is interesting, so I won't judge) but it still is a cool car.... I want a MK1

      ​@Jupp Schlabutt Indeed, the VW it is more expensive nowadays (the new technology require several computers on the car, many sensors and a lot of electronics)...
      and not to mention the safety systems required by new international legislation.

      This, the fact she appears to be used to working doing that kind of thing and wears sensible clothes instead of daisy dukes and a top that cant keep her boobs in is far hotter than the "shop slut" videos that are so prevalent.

    Congratulations young lady, your doing much of what it took me 50 years as tech fitter to learn to do, and do it well. It's great to see you using your father's knowledge and help from time to time. I really enjoy your videos and wish you much success in your life. CHEERS from Canada.

    Thought I was going to see a video about pinstriping wheels, thinking banding was a term for that in the UK. Instead learned you can widen steel wheels if you have the skills. Talented young lady!

    OH MY GOD!!!! IS THIS REAL ???
    I have been working with cars since January 2008 (18yrd ) in my business Family as a car painter, and until today a still don't know how to do wide work wheels in a proper and safe way. I spent the first 3 years restoring my escort mk1 doing the whole sheet metal, fabrication, welding process and obviously paint job from the bare metal to clear coat. I learned a lot in that car!
    I would love to have had your skills at that time.
    Nowadays, there are lots of guys looking for this kind of work wheels, but most of the welders don't want to do it because they are afraid to let the wheels distorted and deformed.
    I truly admire your skills, impressive!
    PLEASE, JUST KEEP GOING.
