Exacting and painstaking work! You will literally know every nook and cranny of that car when you finish. I love to see rusted out metal getting replaced by healthy metal; with the car slowly regaining it’s form and structural integrity.
You're right. When you get to this level of "nut and bolt" restoration, you know every single detail of the car. This one is getting stronger every day!!!
This kind of work just takes time to get it right. No short cuts for that. Nice work Greg
True, so true!
Nice work on fitting that panel - baby steps
Thanks Tom!
Wow! I don't know why this stuff interests me so much. Must be my roots as a hot rod building kid. But I love watching you get this exactly right.
Thanks Dane! It's a slow process, but the results are pretty darn cool I suppose.
@@GregsGarage pretty darn cool is right!
A tad more care needed on this than that rusty old Holden I'm working on Greg...Good stuff mate.
LOL! True Ziggy. But the techniques are all the same.
The Hillary step😂Making good progress 👍Thanks for the vid!
Thanks brother!
Getting so close!
I'd by lying if I said I hadn't hung the new fender and the nose... Just to see what it will look like.
Slow and steady is how to do it. Some day I need to tell the story of my ex-partner. He was 15 years older than me and used to be a prototype fabricator for North American Aviation. He was a genius at shaping metal. After 9 years together we disagreed on the direction of the business and I sold out my half and went on my own in 1986. Unfortunately, he passed away 4 years later taking all that knowledge with him.
Oh man.. I would LOVE to hear that story.
Cool
Thanks Terry!
I see you're using Eastwood products. There is an Eastwood store about 25 minutes from me. I really like their products and the staff there is very helpful and knowledgeable.
I find you have to be careful. They have great stuff and they have the "sucker" products. Their typical rattle can paint is no different than what you'd buy at Home Depot. I'm using their 2k paints. I haven't stress tested them yet, but I've heard great things about them.
I’m watching this with great interest. Thank you for the weekly uploads. Can I ask what size mig wire you use?
I use .023 when I can find it. Sometimes its .024 or .025. I have heavier wire, but I RARELY use it unless I'm welding a steel frame for something not car related. I'm running C25 gas along with the wire.
Flanges and joggles and clecos..oh mai! 😂
Oh yeah! We got all the flavors
👍👍🎩
Bye see ya next time 😁
See ya Greg!
I'm not knowledgeable enough to know if Ferdinand had anything to do with 356 before he passed in 1951 but I'm sure he'd be happy with what you are doing.
Thanks Darrell! I think Ferry was the Porsche family member that took the 356 over the finish line... If my history is right, I think Ferdinand was in jail after the war, but I could be wrong...
Now I'm wondering WHY I know that...??? LOL
