Installing front apron on VW Beetle

This is the second video in a series outlining sheet metal and rust repair on a 1965 Volkswagen beetle.
Shown in this video is removal and replacing the front apron as well as rust repair in the spare tire well. This is shown on a '65 beetle but the process is applicable to other years as well. Subscribe to see more in this series in the future.

Your process helps a lot, made the restoration a lot easier than I had imagined.

Really good video. Subscribed. One friendly suggestion is that you don't need the background music (even when you are on fast play). I like the sounds of the work going on in the garage, anyway. 👍

[@superbear617]

good video

[@goofe.washington953]

New subscriber as of yesterday. Your commitment to “fit and finish” is why I subscribed. Your videos are informative and interesting, for sure. But I will never do metal work - the reason I will continue to watch your videos is because of the quality of the work, and that you demand that quality of yourself. Excellent.

Thanks for showing the struggle.

[@johnfisher7716]

Just as others have said...great video my friend.

[@tomdale1313]

good stuff, tanks for sharing...

[@jamesmorris7074]

Maybe show your welding process and clean up and how you do it.

[@enriquelopez9124]

Awesome tutorial

[@SanDiego_VDubLife]

Pretty sweet Callahan. Very detailed and properly done repair. Good info for my 65 project except mine is a convertible and has been hit in the front so I gotta figure out how to pull that crunch out before I do this repair that you shared. Let me know any advise on how to pull the crunch. I bought a come along. Maybe I can use that?

[@dariorodriguez756]

Great videos and information! Can you please give some information about the mig welder settings, wire number, etc? Thanks!

[@marklamse3261]

Where did you get the repair panels? Decent quality?

[@thomasnoteboom1531]

If you already had the whole patch panel why didn't you just install the new one?????

[@CapnRobert2000]

What brand is your weld primer?

[@hussamal-takriti8792]

You are doing well please change the music ☺️🎶

[@vmotorcyclesofficial1495]

hello and congratulations for your videos, subscribed! I am Italian and I would like to restore a 1965 bug that belonged to my father. It would be very useful for me to have the quote of the frame you built for the body, if it's not a problem, could you send me the drawings? Thank you.

[@tonze9829]

The videos are good but the volume of the music spoils them...Sorry!

[@michaeldorsey6773]

Agree the video is great ...but the music is like something from a horror movie...please get something better.

[@Tobeythebeagle]

The video content is good. The music has to go. It’s distracting and annoying.
