VW Golf MK1 restoration ep.10 - RADIATOR

- On this episode I restore a 30 year old VW GOLF MK1 radiator. All of the parts are sandblasted. For a clean engine bay look, I shaved the old radiator fan mount and adapted a modern universal fan.
The radiator was polished with a generic polishing paste.

In the US, we have "coil cleaner" we use to clean the ac coils. Its a bubbly kind of cleaner. We have two: a very very strong one we rinse off with water and a not so strong one we don't rinse. The bubbles get in between the aluminum fins and lift the dirt out. I would suggest the no rinse one on your radiator to clean between the aluminum fins. I watch you every chance I get and have been incredibly impressed with how you can take an oily greasy dirty part and make it look new. As soon as I can find a low rust 1970's body, I am going to repeat your process. Thanks for what you do!
Thank you for your advise :D ! I try my best but it's not easy ... I have so little time for these videos. I'm runing a business which has nothing to do with cars or tools. This is why I make mistakes, no time to do everything with maximum effort. Really happy that you want to start working on a MK1 golf. They are some awesome cars !
Ive been watching mk1 restauration videos lately and thinking to start one project for myself, but i would go for sport/performance and some exterior looking, you are doing amazing work and keep those videos coming :)
thank you !
That looks sick man 👏. I'm in the process of restoring cabrio. Would you mind sharing what type of fan that is?
That brown work pad looks like the board you slip in front of the radiator when it's deep minus driving temperature. Perhaps a Transylvanian winter.
Love it!! You do some amazing work!
Great transformation from its old state..
like a brand new ... good job bro
DONT STOP PLS IT MORE VIDIOS PLS
Thank you mate !
Awesome
I have been binge watching your videos now and this is an amazing job, i love the fan coversion you did.
Maybe I missed it, but did you test it for leaks before all the work?
it was tested when it was on the car. With hot coolant there were no leaks :)
Great job!
10:30 I was like damn how did you manage to make it look cell shaded, then I realized you already sanded it down again :))
Did not explain that part very well :D
