What happened to the ghia?
That's a very elegant solution to removing the seam.
A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step... and I'd say you've outdone yourself with this 'first step' on the 356 rebuild journey... noyce! 😎
Thanks Matt! The 356 project is def a journey of 1000 miles! The rotator has been a great help so far. I don't think I will ever attempt a restoration without one.
I'll (probably) never have my own project car, but I sure do like watching other people do it, especially when it involves jigs/fixtures. I'm always amazed at how often I employ a technique/trick in the drum shop, which I picked up from an entirely different discipline - furniture restoration, luthier, automotive, etc. Cool project and glad to see the new videos.
I couldn't agree more. Work positioning is so overlooked, yet so important. BTW... I mentioned you in our latest podcast. It will be a few weeks before it comes out.
This video is a good example of get out in the garage, figure it out and make something happen!
👍👍
I know that's right!!!
This Porsche 356 build is going to be epic
Thanks brother!
Oh man thats gonna work Great for working on the car Greg!
It literally unbelievable how many tools we have made that we use in projects!
100% Agree Tom! It's cool to see all of the tools we've made.
Well done ! I love your "seams impossible tool".... Very Clever indeed !!!
Thanks man! Hopefully it work as planned!
Really looking forward to seeing what this car becomes, Greg.
Good luck with the build.
Thanks Brennan! I'm looking forward to getting the body hammers back in my hands. It feels like its been too long!
Awesome Greg, good to see you back in action. Neat design on your, clever product placement on the seams impossible and bummer about the ghia
Thanks Gary! It's good to have another big project. I'd love to see another car build in the Turbo Cobra compound. I think I heard you say Matt's been helping you out... Sounds like there might be an opportunity!!!
I like that seam remover.
Thanks Marsh! I've used it a TON in my shop. So quick and simple.
Good work Greg, this should really work well in replacing the floorpan.
I sure hope so! It's a tough job no matter how you slice it... This should make it less of a pain.
Nice job Greg.
Thanks Randy.
A friend of mine built one very similar to that for a 67 Chevelle. I don't remember the details but it worked quite well.
Good to know. That Chevelle was probably 3x heavier than the 356 I'd guess... I'm just hoping it's a one man job to move the thing... I'll know in a couple weeks!
Awesome job Greg
Thanks brother! I hope all is well with VWs in your world!
Such a great work 👏👏
Good to see ya Greg...'Bout time mate....Oww...Looks like the Ghia got a little close to something.
Good to see you too Ziggy! Someone decided they wanted my lane... Thankfully it wasn't any worse.
Nice job Greg,. Will make working on the body so much easier
The Ghia restoration became so much easier when I was able to flip the car around. I think its a MUST if you have a lot of rocker and wheel well work to do.
Very nice, will work great, love that seam remover
It's going to get its maiden voyage soon!
Nice, it's impressive that a few pieces of steel is all you need to flip a car on its side.
If I could distill bodywork into one key word it would be "leverage." If you can put enough pressure on something it will move wherever you want it to go!
That sucks about the dent, and a bummer on the rotisserie. I have quit loaning tools for that same reason. The jig looks great!
The dents will come out! The dude who hit it tried to lie his way out of taking responsibility. Thankfully I had a witness.
Donde se puede encontrar las medidas en cm para construir este soporte?
How Does He Know The Theif Is A Meth-Head? Unless He's The Meth-Head?
Keep Rocking!!!
Good point! Rock on!
🎉
Where can you find the measurements of the support in centimeters, to be able to manufacture it?
They are in my head. You can find the 356 factory drawings for the mounting points. I used 12" as the height of the front beam. That seems to be a good balance point. It could be a couple inches higher, but I don't have the headroom.
Greg this is awesome! I want to build one like this for the 914. Not if if this design would work but it would be cool! Maybe that guy is the meth head! =) and the Ghia....dang!
Thanks CT! I haven't studied the 914s. They may need the traditional bumper mounted version, but I bet there's a way to sneak something like this under the car. I wonder if there's good factory drawings out there like they have for the 356?
restoration design has a plan for the 914 and they use the same design for the 356 as well but I really like this one you made.@@GregsGarage
