There’s a bit more to replacing a Beetle door post than just cutting the old one out and welding a new one in… 👀🔧
Here’s a step-by-step look at the process — removing the rotten metal, preparing everything properly, getting the new door post positioned and aligned, then welding it back into place.
Getting the alignment right at this stage is crucial. A few millimetres out can make all the difference when it comes to door gaps and fitment later on.
Proper metalwork. Proper restoration. 🔥
