Just found this channel by accident. What a cool project and looking forward to seeing how this gets done.

[@theratchetset7356]

Thanks man. Me too lol. How did you come across our video by chance?

[@dra93n]

It was one of the recommend videos on the home page when I opened KZbin this morning. Now I'm hooked to see how this turns out 👍

[@richardupyurass2379]

Those OEM wheels look sick on this body. This is turning out wicked

[@jeremystone6613]

Good luck with this build guys. It is an awesome concept. Very cool.

[@whome5810]

Awesome! Keep the vids coming!! :)

[@theratchetset7356]

Thanks man. We are trying ! 🤙🏼🍺

[@blitz-power]

I can't forgive you for slautering the VW mk4 R32 but this crazy project looks promising. Will follow!!!

[@theratchetset7356]

If it helps the r32 had a lot of damage and was gonna be parted out if I didn’t buy it.

[@blitz-power]

Just kidding. You make something unique and this is great! Keep the good work!

[@theratchetset7356]

Jorge Diaz thanks homie 🤙🏼 and yea. We are working on producing more content. Just trying to fit it all in around our full time jobs. But we will have some new stuff up soon 🍻👍

[@PeterHatch-mx7zc]

Hope you get back on this build👍😊

[@jayroller7054]

Sweet build bro! Do you recommend any forums for welding and fabrication for people who want to learn? Thank you!

[@theratchetset7356]

Thanks man. Appreciate it. To be honest. I’ve learned by mostly trying and figuring a lot out by myself. But my main resource is KZbin. You can learn just about anything on here. And cheers 🍻 on the brewing. I need to get some projects done and start brewing again. If you like beer check out my other Instagram page @econokeg. That’s what I’m working on right now.

[@luvtruck75]

Great job guys. I've own a few squarebacks in Hope's of a cool project but never pan out. Hope to get another some day. But love this build look forward to more keep up the good work!!!

Brilliant !!!! just found you channel a few days ago and I was hooked, you are a taller version of myself ;P great to see a new vid, I've been wanting to get a new transit connect van and drop in an ST swap :) #sleepervan :) I have a sleeper Mk6 GTI at the moment, WHP is 400 + but it looks stock :)

[@theratchetset7356]

Johnny's Speed Shop haha awesome man. I’ll have to start following you so I can see what you are getting into. And that would be dope! I wanna do the same thing but with a 60s econoline van!

@@theratchetset7356 lol ..... yes mate.... (before the coronavirus crap ) i used to drive through VA about 6 times a year, we own a little company in Hanover PA, so I have to go up there a lot, next time I have to go I'm gonna check with you where you are for a quick stopover visit :) i normally don't drive the Mk6 in VA mostly because I'll get arrested (again) so I take a BMW instead ..LOL... I'll ping you next time I have the opportunity... and yes watch my you tube shit.....lol

[@alexjones8296]

Hi from Wales in UK! Subscribed earlier this evening, loving your work, mate. This is going to sound and look amazing. In my opinion, an R32 at full chat is one of the best engine sounds out there and in this Square Back body shape, will leave many people scratching their heads! Any ideas on final body colour?

[@theratchetset7356]

Alex Jones welcome to the channel homie. And thank you. I agree. The stock sound of the r32 is my favorite by far. And yes. I actually plan on painting it the r32 blue when it’s all done ✅

[@alexjones8296]

TheRatchetset that is the colour I was hoping you were going to paint it, bud. Subscribed and looking forward to next episode. Good luck, mate👍

[@AvatarNecron99]

Where did you get the "arm" for your port-a-band saw? Love the build! Always loved those cars and have a few ideas for a build if I can get my other six projects going, haha

[@theratchetset7356]

I made it in my tubing bender. And thank you 🙏. And believe me. We have the same problem. Lol. To many projects and not enough time in the day.

[@AvatarNecron99]

Thanks for the reply! Would like to see a quick tutorial on the bender and the saw setup! Always cool and interesting to see the tools people use and make with their builds!

[@garyhall7941]

Great work guys, that's coming along nicely! Tell me about your 'green machine' tube bender, where do I get one of those?

[@theratchetset7356]

Gary Hall appreciate it homie ! So the bender is actually called a “affordable bender”. It’s like 300$ and comes with 1 size dye. I bought a harbor fright air of hydraulic jack and did some fabrication to make it easier and quicker because the original is a pump jack and takes forever to do a bend.

[@jerry-md9pf]

I found your channal about a week ago thort the build looked sick but noticed last post was 11 months ago so dint bother subing unfortunatly Any chance videos will be come more regular for this build

[@theratchetset7356]

There is a new video out right now. And yes. We plan on doing more regular videos and updates

[@PeterHatch-mx7zc]

Come on guys I'm dieing out here ! Videos please

[@theratchetset7356]

I apologize homie. I’m trying to get this business I’ve started off the ground which involves finishing this old van. I’m very close to having it out of my garage and will be hitting the car hard soon as I have the room again. Again. Apologies but we will be back at it soon
