  • The 1958 Vw Beetle ragtop revival continues with A pillar replacement. This rusty Vw Bug needs a lot of metal work, let's weld in some new steel. Next Vids we will do the driver side floor pan and rear crossmember.

    Jay,
    With Larry saying "not Larry approved " on Jenns side of the car, don't want her falling out, make sure you do a great, solid job: otherwise that may cause some serious "domestic tranquility factor issues! 😂.

    "But Larry, the first third is attached." - long pause - "Hang on" Haha great video. The car was a noodle and you're stitching it back together.

    'Not Larry approved'. The important thing is you are learning though! I should say that my welding skills are limited as well so you have my support the whole way through. Thanks for the update Jason and thanks once again to Larry for his wisdom and letting you use his shop. 👍👍

    Oh my! Flashing back to me as a kid, doing projects with my Dad! “What do you think?” I’d say, looking for approval. My Dad, like Larry, would look… and slowly shake his head. Larry, like my Dad, has the patience of Job! He actually offered to take over, but allowed you to continue! What a teacher!

    I feel your pain with the welding. I am constantly blowing holes in my welds. I have a feeling that your going to hear "Not Larry Approved" on a regular basis. If I was you I would get a t-shirt made up with "Not Larry Approved" (maybe on the front and back?). That way you don't have to hear it all the time and Larry can just point at your t-shirt when he feels your work is not up to his standards 😀. I am really enjoying these videos .Thanks!!!

    I think on a lot the stuff for these cars you could actually MIG Braze the panels instead of MIG Welding them. Mig Brazing is lower temperature so you get less warpage and the bond if very strong.

  • @Mikefngarage

    IM pretty sure the inner panel was never welded from the factory. just the edge around then the inner panel was made to strengthen the section. there is a place to weld it from near where the running board mounts.

  • @Emperorprime
    @Emperorprime Год назад +3

    gr8 video series you guys are doing!
    Im pretty surprised about welding the inner A-Pillar to the heaterchannel, never heard about it in my 15 yrs doing vw bugs or had any being attached when removing the old ones. is that factory? Either way, it's a really good idea! makes me kind of worried, I have not done that on any of my bugs :O

    • @5150mxVW
      @5150mxVW  Год назад +3

      Larry says the inner A pillar is not welded from the factory as you have no access to it. He does it to add strength , especially on a rusty car....only if u have access. He says you did just fine, all is good .
