I like how Walter comes in, gets his minute of love and then continues with his day. Enjoying the work you do. Best 19 minutes of my day.

I'm loving this 356. So many people would have looked at that car as only a candidate for complete restoration and you have preserved it's story while at the same time making it as beautiful as it can be. It's a nice balance and you will proudly drive that one. I currently have a couple Austin Healey Sprites that I'm working on with the end goal of trading up to a 356. That's the dream anyway.

Nicely done. And the passenger side went a LOT quicker!! 🙄 I thought I saw Walter when you were working on the drivers side rear quarter window, and Lo and behold...Walter! Yay! Thanks, and Woof to Walter.

Replaced all the rubber on my '68 beetle a couple of years ago...talcum powder can be your best friend when getting everything to fit again... :) Nice job!

Liquid dishwashing soap is a great lubricant too. I was wincing as I watched him forcing the rubber seal into the metal window frame on the doors.

Great job, as always! Now you can park the 356 outside with all the windows in and have room to work on the Landcruiser again :-) Looking forward to see you work on the motor and the transmission, will be pretty much like with the beetle, I suppose. You are definitely getting closer to take the 356 for a first spin. Thumbs up!

My Karmann Ghia rear window rubber was exactly the same when I replaced it. It's amazing how similar they are in body and trim design. Out of interest does the Porsche have tacks used to secure interior trim parts?
