Three years ago, I rescued a 1959 Volkswagen Single Cab and named her Ms. Daisy. In this video, the real restoration journey finally begins. We take a complete walkaround of the truck to inspect rust damage, weak sheet metal, structural concerns, and the areas that will require repair or replacement to bring this classic VW truck back to life. This first episode lays the foundation for the entire rebuild series as we assess the condition of the body, suspension, braking system, and chassis before starting the restoration. This build is more than a mechanical project — it’s a tribute to Sarah Luisi, whose memory rides with this truck every mile of the journey.

In this video, you'll see:
• Rust damage and structural weak points
• Panels that need patching or full replacement
• What original parts remain on this VW truck
• What direction this restoration build might take

Question - If this were your build, would you choose a complete restoration, just patch panels or full panel replacements or just drive it?
