this video was made over several days. Unfortunately I may have some overlap on what I am saying because I forgot what I said in the last segment. which may have been a week ago. thanks for watching and liking.

Thanks for taking the time to educate us. Looking forward to the next lesson.
Very good information! Thanks.
Coming together nice, I really like how your preserving as much of the original metal as possible
Fun and educational as usual. I always look forward to seeing your projects come together. This one will be a beauty.
Keep in mind you’re building a collector vehicle. I doubt it’s ever going to sit in a farm yard or barn for the next 30 years. Great video and content. Thanks.
I wish that I had your skills and patience...Great job..!
Great segment on the repair on the heater channel and front lower cowl piece,really came out nice.just gotta keep doing what your doing and carry on.👍👍👍😎😎😎
I like watch you work
Great video! I'll bet it's really hot down your way 🔥. It's right at 100* up here in Washington. Your '54 is going to be really fun watching it come together 👍
Thank you for going through the trouble to show how it's done!
You are an artist!
Great video! Your work inspires me daily. Can't wait for the next one.
As you've said earlier Mike, the important thing is to keep these classics alive, no matter how one restores them, from the cheap and cheerful plenty of bog approach, to the other end of the scale. Your approach it appears to me, is to build in longevity by going the extra yard, and that should be applauded...
great work as usual, thx Mike
awesome job
Always love how you teach us Mike. God Bless
On my double cab I removed the roof and it is very similar to the heater channel, it is stacked steel, VW just had raw steel stacked and it rusted through the layers. I used panel bond since it protects the layers and the sheer strength is amazing. I did make the mistake and plug weld one area near the panel bond and I saw the panel bond fail in that area. Luckily enough I was able to fix it, but you are right you need to weigh your options for the "best" repair considering time, effort, and how long it will last. I think your choice of edge welding is a brilliant one, it actually will probably be one of the strongest options and minimizes the work, and potential rust. Great video Mike!
Hey Mike ! Drill out the pan bolts and weld the pan to the body , you could always drill out the welds .
Nice job
I think they have a word that is called paralysis of analysis don't overanalyze it
good way to explain it!
Dry weather is good
Captain Ron says...WELD IT...😉
You can drill for spotwelds faster than your explanations !! 🙊
That left had front corner must be a common rot area? Almost identical to the fix I had to do on my 68 bug. Funnily enough the other side was almost pristine. 19:30 I went with edge welding on the sill plate. Looked exacty like you ended up doing it Has held up just fine and with trimming and careful grinding you'd never know.
Looks Great Mike ! Have you ever checked out a product called Pickle X 20 ? It would work good for all the channel work your doing for corrosion prevention. I use it a lot and have had great success with it. 👍
I will check into that.
I went back to plug welding because I found it to unreliable, even though the spots looked good they didn't adhere to each other
