    I think it's safe to say, most people don't possess the time, patience, or skill level to handle all these details. Amazing to see what can be accomplished when you persevere, though. Love the end result!!! Good job!

      @@sixtyfiveford *_ Sad was the day that VW stopped making those pick-ups & cars (In the USA I think you called them Rabbit) in South Africa we called them Golf ... the Car and Caddy .... the Pick-up, then when the new generation (Bigger ones) we then named them CITI GOLF. (It ceased manufacture in 2009 November) My 2001 Citi Golf 1.6 is still going STRONG!! Oh, there's a whole 'Cult' for these cars here _*

    My brother and I worked on VW Rabbits for extra money back in the early 80's, buying fixing and selling. A lot we bought had the broken oil pump in the bottom of the pan, swapped out with new and ran like a dream. Front wheel drive on them ran like a rally car, great power and handeling back then for a cheap car. We had a great diesel we pulled the motor on and painted CAT yellow, put CAT stickers on the valve cover. Looked cool and turned a few heads when we opened the hood. Great job, thanks for sharing, I know filming and editing adds even more time. We all Appreciate the effort.

As impressive as your skills, resourcefulness, and tenacity are, I ALMOST feel that the most impressive thing for me is that you not only HAD an old dryer paddle, but you were able to effectively dissect it and nicely rebuild that steering column shroud with bits of the paddle. Hats off to you sir! Much respect! As I watch the remainder of the video, that glove box door/hinges was nicely done as well! And with the added black elements on the doors the black seats look really nice. GREAT JOB!

    I used the string trick about 15 years ago for my wet bar. The copper hot and cold pipes were leaking in the slab, so I used parachute cord (from a real parachute) and made a homemade shuttlecock to blow the cord from the bar sink copper pipe end connection to the other side of the slab and up to the wall fitting. Used the same paracord to pull 1/4" icemaker tubing through the copper pipes and up under the bar. Converted the ends to compression fittings and restored water to my Man Cave bar.

    I long time ago I bought some Wrangler doors with no keys. I took the lock cylinders to a locksmith and asked them to key them to the ignition: $30. Worth it.

    Amazing work, I was wondering about the electrical. When you showed the underside of the seat I had flashbacks to looking for eight-tracks way back when.

    For the radio, look at some of the offerings from vintage sounds. They have Bluetooth two post radios that can fit there.

    I bought a 72 lemans sport that sat in a barn for 30 years. Rust free California car until I looked under and behind the back seat, and in the trunk. The urine is as bad as road salt. The right dude trunk pan has a hole as large as the space under the spare tire. Under the back seat still there but may be thin. Didn’t even think about them getting in the heater.
