Welcome back to Vangabonders, your go-to channel for all things vintage VW Bus restoration! In this episode, join Kris as he takes on two of the final rust repairs on his beloved 1973 VW Bus. We're getting closer to that breathtaking finish line as the restoration journey nears its end!

First up, Kris tackles a crucial repair by expertly welding a piece of the front fender. Watch as he works his magic with precision and passion, bringing new life to this iconic classic using crappy Klokkerholm panels.

But that's not all; our skilled restorer also faces a rusty challenge on the front door of the bus. Witness the removal of the damaged, corroded patch and the seamless welding of a fresh, rust-free piece in its place. Kris' dedication to preserving the Bus's integrity shines through in every weld and every grind.

Join us on this transformative adventure as Kris demonstrates the true art of restoration. There's nothing quite like witnessing the rebirth of a timeless classic, and the '73 VW Bus is no exception.
