@@timada8603 yeah was going to but the spring catch was rammed in . That was first job but easy to just cut through handle ,I’ve plenty spare but not fixing until all other jobs are done 👍
Happy new year . Starting to crack on . A little j😊b was this annoying bonnet/hood release and I shut it hard down whilst it rained before Xmas but now handle is off lol I can crack on with brakes ,replace drum then adjust brakes and enjoy thanks for comments and time to crack on 👍
A bit frustrating that latch Andy.. Makes you want to kick the cat.. lol.. Good thing Mrs. Coco was there to keep you smiling😉.. Happy New Year to you both eh🥳🥳!! Cheers, Bernie 😎
Poor design and 9/10 there a bugger to open and they just got to be set up right. So shorten cable and going through inner front wing with small handle will do the trick plus adjust bonnet latch . Happy new year Bernie
Really like the patina bug. maybe you have an engine on hand that would work well and then take the current engine out to place in the Wizzard as planed. Happy New Year to you and your family
Exactly I’ve a 1300 on my bench at the shop that was going in the GT bug but the GT bug needs a 1600 and not the 1300 . So time to bench test the 1300 ready for patina bug and current engine into wizard like you said 👍 cheers
That latch would come right off if you weren’t filming. Sometimes you have too use a bigger hammer. I here you knocking but you can’t come in. Happy Day one of the new year.
Lol I know right but will make it work better once everything is done . Mrs accidentally stopped camera soon as it undone lol . Love a big hammer cheers Steven happy new year
@@vwcoco Yes, mate. I went down there this afternoon to go for a walk. The car park was rammo with other people with a similar idea to me! I drove around the car park and there was a Red KG under one of those trago tarp things covering the top half. Strange how it was in the middle of the car park? Mind you over on the left hand side as you drive in is a White Bay on Empi 5s that looks pretty green and unloved...
@@vwcoco Haha! So true, mate. Let us know if you manage to get down there or get someone else to drop a card on it! I'm pretty sure the bay was there back in the summer, but the KG is intriguing! Anyway. Happy New Year and keep the vids coming 🤙
You tell him Queen Kathleen! "put your gloves on!"
Will do lol
Happy New Year to you and yours, Andy.
Happy new year benton
Great video. Nice that your lady does the filming !! 👍
Yeah easier for Mrs to film as hard and normally forget to film whilst working then a case of stop starting but yeah nice one mrs coco thank you 👍
@@vwcoco Yes. Working and filming takes twice as long 🤣
@@pstreetgarage7304 I know see Mrs coco always out shopping so I’m stuck on my own lol 👍
You still drive from the wrong side Andy lol. Happy New Year to you and your family Bud. Keep up the great work and content 👏 👌
Lol cheers Tim . Happy new year
I am still curious why you didn't just jack it up and reach in through the fuel tank opening and pop it open?
@@timada8603 yeah was going to but the spring catch was rammed in . That was first job but easy to just cut through handle ,I’ve plenty spare but not fixing until all other jobs are done 👍

Happy new year Andy!
Think both door latches on my studebaker are jammed. Due to cab twist….
Oh no . What’s the fix for those Frank ? Happy new year
@@vwcoco i think getting it squared up on a chassis will help..stay tuned!
@@franksgarage8551 yeah that would help them go from there maybe a slight body twist Frank
I find that if you jack one corner of the front of the car, it distorts the body, and it will open with a pull.
Ok thanks 👍
Happy New Year
Happy new year Roy 👍
Great job Vwcoco
Cheers Ron 👍
