Hi Dan, been following the channel since the “rattle can” t5 build. As one of your more mature subscribers who has a vast experience in welding/ fabrication and paint and bodywork I can say only this……your confidence and ability has grown ten fold over the years, and you’re always learning. I like the transparency of your channel too. Everyone will have an opinion mate but just do what you do, no excuses, no apologies, there’s plenty of so called “experts” who will comment negatively, but it’s your channel fundamentally so do what you like bud👍🏻

@h12st_d63 Год назад

Don’t criticise yourself too much pal, some epic effort going in for a 5k build, most would of just waxoyled over the rust in the first place! Looking forward to some more van content 👌🏻

@Blablabla900 Год назад

Man you're not giving yourself enough credit. Doing a great job 👍

@kingcal53 Год назад

Totally here for the negative comments voice, highlight of every vid for me! Top work as always, Dan.

@billsheehy1660 Год назад

People will always tell you, they have a mate that can weld so tidy, I say show me? Your welding is sound. As long as you have penetration etc, it will last for ever. Love that shop.

@mattjagger4360 Год назад

Welds aren't bad. They look strong enough. And so long as it's strong. Once you grind them back and stone chip it... You are doing a great job. Unfortunately some comments of negativity will come. It's how society is now.

@markprendergast1718 Год назад

New subscriber love that you listening to people about certain things love the dubs starting to get a little hooked

@DanChambersDAC Год назад

Thank you for watching and subscribing bud.

@michaelkenefick4170 Год назад

Top work dan. Sunday morning treat i look forward to your upload🔥👌.don't listen to the ones that will bring you down listen to the ones that will bring you on💪👌

@michaelsidhu4079 Год назад

I need to do rust repairs in the same areas on my VW Vento, you made it look easy. 😎

@DanChambersDAC Год назад

The rollover jig makes it so much easier.

@alexjones8296 Год назад

Great effort and progress with the arches, Dan. All of the experience you’ve gained really shows, when you consider how quickly you’ve got to this stage already. Keep going and looking forward to seeing camper updates.👊

@nath_tayl0rr Год назад

I would highly recommend making a jig to aid in replacing steering arms on the coil overs

@neilowen9468 Год назад

Thanks Dan, loving the Polo series! Also looking forward to seeing more on the T5! 🙏👍🤙💯😊

@littlesmiths101 Год назад

Polished metal like a delorean with those would look mint

@samdub Год назад

Loving this budget build! The remaining money will start disappearing fast with engine and interior 😂

@darrenrevill8664 Год назад

Cracking progress. I do like your builds

@ma02acjbeemer38 Год назад

YOU ARE DOING A GREAT JOB BUDDY HATS OFF TOO YOU SIR

@SimpsonsClassics Год назад

Great progress I think for your budget it’s going to come out really nice interested to see what the engine spec will be like 👍

@downnoutmotors Год назад

Awesome work as always mate.. watching from Singapore this week.. 👍

Hello Dan perfect 👍👍👍👍 greetings from Germany 🇩🇪 👋👋👋Kai 🙏🛠

@Devastator0 Год назад

You know Dan, when you started the Polo, I wasn’t sold on it but you’ve got me locked in now haha. Good to see the bits of progress happening mate. Keep up the great work as always! Looking forward to the next installment!!

@sidsxr3irestoration Год назад

Looking spot on 💯👌

@pkf4124 Год назад

Looking good.

@filipwennergren2712 Год назад

Love this!!!

@JohnWD40TC02 Год назад

I think you are making great progress on the build Dan, you don't need to apologise for your fabrication or welding skills mate as there is nothing wrong with them as they are solid now all they need is a bit of dressing up and they will be fine, looking forward to the next one👏🙏👍

@jimtheman5598 Год назад

Dan for the amount of time you have been welding your work is amazing old saying practice makes perfect and your certainly doing that keep going mate your channel is awesome cheers

@craigludford98 Год назад

This is a great build. Always look forward to what the next episode has to offer. Great work as always Dan

@RetroRewind77 Год назад

Another cracking vid dude

Loving this build. Looking forward to the next ep already. 😎👍🛠

@timbird5494 Год назад

As always Dan great video loving the build 👍👍

@RetroRebuild Год назад

Great vid as always 👍, love the negative comments voice 😂, that's how I hear them too!

@simondale7402 Год назад

Loved the mk1 build. But this polo build is going to be so much better! Keep the good work up Dan 👍

@DanChambersDAC Год назад

Thank you bud. I really hope it turns out ok in the end!!!

@h12st_d63 Год назад

I think this will be even better, Golf was a whole next level of detail but this is almost achievable to the average weekend spanner warrior 👌🏻

@philtucker1224 Год назад

Good morning Dan! 👍😁

@DanChambersDAC Год назад

Morning Dude.

@GooDDeNcheg Год назад

Nice work! I'm already looking forward to the next part. Like from Ukraine 🟡🔵

@nickthorpe5990 Год назад

I really like the bare metal of the inner front wing, it would look good clear coated.

@lucyandemilysdad Год назад

Hey Dan, brilliant work mate, love what you've been doing with all your builds, no bullsh!t, just straight talking.... Just a question, I'm wondering if your coating the new metal work, sills etc. In etch primer or anything, i mightve missed it in the video but i haven't heard you mention it, just seems a shame if you aren't for a little bit of future proofing, unless your gonna spray some primer in later. Keep dreaming mate 😉👍🏻

@TheDigitalDevils Год назад

Nice, but let's talk about what wonderful shade of grey you're going to painting it in later? A really dark flat gunmetal grey with maybe some glossy black parts. Just to mix things up along with a colourmatched golden thin stripe somewhere to tie the wheels colour together with the car and have it looking a bit more unique?

@stuartrobson4891 Год назад

Been following since the start of the Mk1 golf just wondered if your getting anymore stickers in? Loved the workshop build watched it from start to finish

@garycrofts1421 Год назад

I like the look of Corrado/Vento front lights and grill... that'd look cool if it can be adapted....or the early Golf quad square lights...never been done on a Polo I bet.

@fatboymotorsport Год назад

Good work as usual Dan, One thing is there any risk of damage to the Van having it so close when you are grinding and welding ect, even more so that you have the top up and open? last thing you want is a bit of molten metal burning the top or landing on one of the windows,

@toddwalters9089 Год назад

Gotta love a Sunday morning upload! Absolutely killing Dan !! This and every other build you’ve done has been class !! Really enjoyed the garage build to !! Being a mechanic I’m proper jealous!! But always love seeing people succeed and doing well keep it up bro 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻 P.s f#*k the negativity and people saying should’ve done this and that end of the day you’ve got skills and a dream garage jealousy’s a bitch

@Caleb0106 Год назад

If I building it i reckon id choose bright blue metallic from the mk2 golf, chrome mk1 bumpers and a few other chrome bits, beige/tan interior, period correct roof bars/rack, single headlight, and as for engine id say keeping it fairly standard would be cool maybe a g40 swap or the mk2f gt engine or if you want one off you could try fit the 800 or 900cc engine from the mk1 polo and put the g40 supercharger on it if that would even work and definitely with those wheels, cant wait to see how it turns out!!

@DanChambersDAC Год назад

Watch this space.......

@rstvan Год назад

Inner arches will look good once coated and painted 👍

@DanChambersDAC Год назад

Thanks bud, Yeah they should look ok. Just added that voiceover in as internet 'experts' that have never welded like to pick up on things like that! Hope you are having a good weekend.

@rstvan Год назад

@@DanChambersDAC Owning a bodyshop I can see past all the hard work you have put in and can visualise the finish product 👍

@Foster_85 Год назад

Watched this channel since the rattle can t5 and I look forward to your uploads every Sunday! I wouldn't even mention the keyboard welders mate, we all know the end product will be amazing. Keep up the good work on the car and the house, also make time for a Easter beer as you have earned it 👍🏽

@flying_pig_moto8350 Год назад

@outlawking4106 Год назад

What engine are you thinking of going with? I’ve got a MK2f GT engine, gearbox etc here if your interested. Keep up the good work 👊🏻

@x21ekx91 Год назад

Stop apologising mate your smashing it haters gonna hate

@10xguluva Год назад

Dan, have you already chose the colour? Looks good 🔥

@chrisb8416 Год назад

You might not have put many hours in this week but it doesn't show. Metal fab is a slow tediousprocess, considering you are doing all of it by hand you've done amazing and it's coming along quickly. What are you going to put over the bare metal when you're done?

@eddwells3033 Год назад

Loving the new build dan 👍. One question.....who are you referring to when you say "we". I thought you were doing these projects solo.

@christeece-millington1641 Год назад

👍

@g40nut Год назад

I think you would have saved yourself quite a bit of time by using Mk1 Golf rear arches on the rear. I have used them on my 2F Squareback

@DanChambersDAC Год назад

Yeah they would have saved time although they would cost a lot to buy. Being a budget build I took the decision to got the more difficult but cheaper route to save money.

@g40nut Год назад

As for Ml1 Golf suspension, have you looked at John Ludwick’s YT channel?
