Nice job Jeff!
Great practical repairs that can be done at home, thanks for the time you put into the videos, I really enjoy them
one of the most underrated channels on youtube
OMG! Thank you for changing the music. This music is so much better! I love your show! It's the one I look most forward to! Great job!
Rust never sleep
Good job
Thanks for posting this, Jeff. I attempted this same repair many years ago when I was about 20 and never got it right. Its satisfying to see it done properly all these years later!
I am just a backyard hack, so it proves that if you take your time, you can do it justice.
Dude, love seeing this work on the rolling resto. very satisfying to watch! Wish I could weld like that.
Not too hard to do that type of welding, just a low setting and some practice (which I unfortunately keep getting more of ;) ).
Nice video. I’ve subscribed and will be watching more.
OMG, looks like a Swiss cheese!! In my first VW I remember how much Beetles liked rust, especially bottom of the doors ...
Good job mate, carry on!
Awesome Jeff, thanks for the Upload..
Another great video Jeff! 👍
I really do enjoy the "Mrs. Jeff's Husband's Show"... Keep it up
I'm late to the party today, fell asleep early last night so missed out watching right away. Love the vids bud.
Love your channel!! Keep up the great content
You really know your game great stuff
Mrs Jeff’s facial expression says it all ... love it
Well done Jeff!
Nice one Jeff! I'm going to be tackling the A pillar repair on my '66 in the near future. Plus a few other smaller rusted panels much like on theHome Built Project Beetle. Looking forward to more vids.
Give it a go!
Looking good, great progress :D
Matching jacket to Lippy Mrs Jeff . . . . .that's style !
Yay rivnuts! Nice repair, I think Mrs Jeff wants her beetle sprayed pink.....
Nice job again Jeff! You make it look so easy! Tiger.
Every time we work on those cars is a new surprise, hehe. Nice to see the work you are doing in the Bug.
Cheers,
Paulo
Thanks mate.
The bug is looking sweeet!
well done Jeff, that's a fiddly bloody corner that
Yep. Much fiddlier than I thought it would be.
"Don't interrupt the process!"
Good show, Jeff
Great job
I've only just found your channel through the recommendation of a forum for project Binky. These are great. If you need an apprentice let me know 😉🤣
Thanks bro from Zimbabwe I got mine baby I am working on
Beetles are just hard to start when warm sometimes. It's in the owner's manual. Just depress the pedal half way while cranking
yea yea we hear you rolling resto,but since miss jeff is keeping it ,it will be later he he keep up the good work regards Sören
and smarty pant´s now with black cardbord he he
Søren Petersen came to say the same lol!
looking forward to when the bug becomes a long term project
second favourite build channel behind project binky
Mine too :D
"Took longer than I wanted" is how every small project turns out!
Absolutely!
After you paint it, grab a can of 3M cavity wax and spray inside the repaired areas. itll help keep the rust away for awhile. great vids! cheers.
Will do.
Thanks for sharing...
Thanks mate. Just a tip, have a look at your home page, as when I clicked on your channel, it says you don't have any content. It is only because I saw you had subscribers that I went further and saw your videos. Your videos look good, but not having a home page may be holding your channel back. Keep it up mate.
Oh thanks..I’ll have a look. Something i don’t usually look at I must admit..Take care.
Thanks again. Think it’s sorted now. Never gave it any thought. 👍
Re: Engine hot-start issues. Ever thought about doing a "quick and dirty" EFI conversion, using something Megasquirt? Might be an interesting project for a car like this. Just an idea!
Not really for this car. This is just a short term project. The 911 is being converted to EFI.
I hate to say "I told you so", but ... I told you so. You're not gonna be happy with anything less than a great car, I can see that :-)
Anyway, it's always nice to see you fix things up so quickly! Gives me some inspiration to tackle some of the jobs waiting on my car.
Quick question for you: I always thought weld through primer was only supposed to be used on flanges for welds, not just as a general inner coating? Not sure if there's any downside to that...
You are probably, correct there, although I am still going to paint it out from the inside, to hopefully stop the corrosion from in there.
Fair enough - I'm certainly no expert on this topic. It seems like everyone has their own way with tackling the unseen cavities and fending off rust.
I have decided. Your beetle is yellow has big eyelids and a surprising number of holes. Thus I dub it SpongeBob, for it is he (with wheels obviously).
Haha, that is spot on!
Hello Jeff how are you? Question remember the video you did when you lower the car front end? Have you had any issues with the front suspension since you did it?
I sold the car a couple of years ago.
@@HomeBuiltByJeff thanks for getting back to me. I am working on a 1971 super B and I want to lower it using that technique you shared in your video. Again thanks; this is Junior from Classic Vw bugs and Sunny the super beetle.
After you lowered the car did you have any issues; or sold the car shortly after you modified the struts
Jeff, Did you upload this video in 360p resolution? That's the highest quality I can select on the drop-down.
It takes a while for youtube to process the videos
It is in 1080, but as Thomas mentioned, it only just went up so maybe that is why.
Right you are. I now have 1080p. Dang! I learned something today (other than how to patch a rusted-out fenderwell). Thanks.
how about fitting a Subaru motor to the Volkswagen, they seem to becoming popular.
Worth checking to see if the carb is iced up, common problem with these engines, if so? check the heat risers are channeling hot air from exhaust manifold to the intake, or for a bit more va, va, voom strap on twin kardon carbs icing problem solved. :-)
I don't think so as it was a 25 degree day, but 1/3 throttle on start up has worked every time since.
Also try 3 pumps on the throttle before you turn the key, i do this religiously. Carbs can still ice on hot humid days, the single carb is a huge restriction on the motor, carb will frost over and fuel will seise to vaporise. Sounds like you have it sorted, but still worth knowing. Have fun:-)
hello quick question what size wire and what welder settings are you using
.8mmm
What thickness sheet steel do you use?
This stuff was 0.8mm sheet left over from the Z, although I think the Beetle's original sheet is a bit thinner than that.
What gage sheet steel you use?
0.8mm
Just discovered your channel. It’s great! 🇦🇺🏳️🌈
Jeff, trace before you cut and you will save yourself a heap of time.
I did, but there is always a bit of fine tuning to get it just right ;)
Helps to cut over size, that's my biggest flaw, looks like you worked that out already. What is your reasoning for cutting out the small intricate areas rather than making a more regular shape (i can think of a few).
This guy knows VW th-cam.com/users/mustie1
I have watched a few of his vids. He knows his stuff.
Stole the CAD joke from Bad Obsession Motorsports ;-)
Absolutely (although it is not the first time I have used it either). Project Binky is the best!
I love their channel and yours! Keep up the good work
