  • Welcome to this video, and welcome to my channel
    This is me saving a 900.000km high milage VW Caddy mk3 TDI Indienblau LL5M from 07/2004. this one has rust damage on the left driverside rockerpanel. Its more than expected but in true Beardedbuilds fashion I will struggle through it and save this lovely Caddy from a rusty end.
    The still first owner is really proud of this high milage Caddy and plans to drive to a million kilometers!! Hopefully I will be there to witness it! I am proud to have learned the skills needed to have a hand in saving this Caddy!
    Let me know If you want to see specific things and/or if you have tips and tricks, it will be greatly appreciated.
    Hope you enjoy and follow allong.
    See you in the next one,
    Bart

    Awesome work interesting van as well done some serious mileage

      Thanks! Yeah my neighbour is pretty proud of this Caddy, he did really keep up with it. The vid is to short to really go in dept. But some body work here and there and a lot of oil changes haha. But for 900000km the major mechanics is really not bad! Where I live people think 200000km is too much lol.

      Thanks for the comments. Maybe do an update video sometime. in the uk most people think that if a vehicle has done 100,000 miles then its worth little.

    • @BeardedBuilds
      @BeardedBuilds  Год назад

      Yeah! Im going to try to get the million Km's on video! But most likely its going to be a year or more before that happens, my neighbour did say he plans to make it that far! And maybe I fix some other stuff for him so and make a new video on it.

    Great and honest plumbing work. At 3:29 min. you use an iron product. Doesn't the Ranex liquid burn when welding sheet metal??

    • @BeardedBuilds

      Thanks!!
      I didnt show I wipes it of after some time to react and disolve the surface rust! Then a light sand and then I used Copper Weld Thru primer, and this you can leave when welding to give extra protection. I also sprayed the inside of the rockerpanel after welding. I only had 3 short days to do this repair and I could not show every detail!
      Thanks for watching!!
