#car #diy #howto
Now that all the hammering and dollying is done on the roof of the 1964 VW Bug, it’s time to start putting on the bondo and finish up the bodywork.
Restoring an extreme wrecked car like this takes patience and time

Hi Pete, I think most all shops would of not taken that type of time consuming repair. You did do almost the impossible in saving Maxwell the Volkswagen I am truly impressed with your skillset you my friend Pete are a Metal Magician KUDOS!!!
Pete thank you for the last few calm and informative videos
So much nicer than all the bad language and yelling and screaming
This video series shows just how awesome the skills this man has metal massaging ect! Awesome job Pete Hughes! damn impressive!
Did you save the pinstriping on the engine cover when you repainted all the green?
Its too bad Pete had to part with Maxwell the bug but he made sure it found a wonderful home and the new owner brought it back to the only man to lovingly repair maxwell properly!
Man I'm about to take on my c3 paint again. I agree with the G2 itbis unforgiving to any flex if left on with any thickness..cracks. So I need to strip the whole car. What's the best chemical stripper I can order or get at Ellis color in dfw?
Good on ya Pete.
I remember this job! Excellent work!
you did an amazing job. Im 64 and have done a lot of body work thru the years and this is something most body men can not do .
Is there a bondo buster at harbor freight worth buying?
D I Y… AUTO MOTIVE SCHOOL! WITH YOUR FRIEND PETE .AND MINNIE, THE BODY SHOP GIRL!
WE GOT A SITUATION HERE!
MINNIE HAS BEEN BLEEDING THROUGH BOTH EARS, FROM YEARS OF YELLING EVERY CHANCE PETE GETS.
SO THE SOLUTION IS TO FILL HER EARS WITH BONDO, USE THE AIR FILE TO SMOOTH EVERYTHING OUT, PRIMER AND PAINT, AND YOUR ALL DONE!
Thanks Pete for another great video, my name is Jay I live in North Carolina been watching your videos for at least 8 years
With everything having a curve, the VW has to have the hardest top to repair after damage. Thank god Maxwell has Pete. Installing a new roof skin would be absolutely painful.
Pete, great job! Can tell you really care about this job! Your attitude is awesome!!
Ps, I keep asking about that art but don't ever get a reply. I've tried emailing several times but it keeps kicking it back. Do you want to sell some of that art?????
Man, I'd really like to see my friend Pete oldschool lead a car, both for the amount of expletives and also that guru bodyshop teaching.
P.S. I hate curves cuz I'll always know one side is almost imperceptibly off.
And I thought I was breaking some big rules when I used a file a few weeks ago.
this has to be the 100th video you did on sanding bondo.
Good Ole Pete
In Australia we call it BOG
No that’s not a dinosaur sprayer it’s a siphon gun. Yes they still make that style today in a HVLP. The cap determines the type of spray gun not location of cup. Example you can put a conventional cap on a gravity fed gun and a HVLP cap on a siphon gun.
I like your channel. You do a good job showing what to do and why. An additional plus is you show how physically demanding it is and how long it takes. Thanks.
