Episode 3 - Body Dolly Build & Door Hinge Replacement

Episode 3 - Body Dolly Build & Door Hinge Replacement

As always, before we get started - this is a 1969 Volkswagen Beetle Restoration Project, named Helen Wheels. This restoration began in October 2020 and officially finished October 2024. All the footage you see is from past Reels and Posts shared to my Instagram page - @annies_vw

I am not a professional and only offer these videos for entertainment purposes only.

In this episode, we build a custom dolly to support the body of my 1969 Beetle during its restoration, and replace a worn-out door hinge. This footage, re-released from my Instagram reels, captures the process in a montage format, with helpful tips and tricks added as side notes. Whether you're prepping your VW for bodywork or tackling door repairs, these steps will come in handy.

What to expect:
• Building a sturdy dolly for the body of a 1969 VW Beetle
• Replacing a door hinge to ensure proper alignment and function
• Re-released footage from my Instagram, now edited for YouTube
• Tips and tricks shared throughout the process to help with your own project
