Time lapse build of one of the first Smyth Performance mini truck kits for the 99.5-04 VW golf/Jetta 4 door sedan. Thanks to Hestermann Motorwerks for the great work. The newer mini truck kit contains all the CNC-cut filler panels and a new rear window surround without the quarter windows. These early vw ute kits launched what is now the biggest car-to-truck operation in the world.

1:20 Instead of doing pop rivets , can i do it old school with real aircraft rivets, where possible? Some of the guys around the airport where my shop is wanted me to ask.
How much?
i want this business to start in philippines...but how?

Saveiro copia camioneta pick up
Kit looked awesome then and still does.
oh man first time see the little pickup, I can imagine how economic work would be done with this little pickup here in Los Angeles , good job guys, this guy has engineering talent.
It would not be capable of doing work at all, Jettas aren't that powerful
I've seen this after the Beetle Ute and I think that this one is killing it! The tail lights are really SELLING it as a real truck and the more useable and simpler bed makes so much sense if you want to carry more than a surfboard!
You have made volkwagon even better even ferdinand porshe would love it
If and when I get my ‘01 TDI Jetta back from my daughter I am doing this. Love it!! Before I gave her to my daughter we had a love/hate relationship. I loved the mileage and that she was a diesel. But she wasn’t a truck. Being a truck driver for 24 years I’m partial to trucks.
👍 nice best wishes for your vision of 01 TDI Jetty. Once I went Germanic I am German for life. All I spent prior on garbage domestic carbage (my forced opinion )Now I am buying cars because I want to not haft to. Maybe you can share your own work. Best wishes
You know what, This is really COOL! I like it.
A great looking job , my only Beef would be using pop rivets & not doing any welding to give it any Strength , the ute Looks fantasic !
I built one of these around the same time as this one was being built. I still own it and use it frequently. Mine has the 2.0T motor with the DSG box. Great combo. It hauls a load and it hauls ass. BTW, you do know that all civil aircraft are riveted together, right? If it's good enough for Boeing and AirBus, it's good enough for me. My GTI based Ute usually hauls a couple of mountain bikes or canoes, but has also hauled over 900 lbs of junk to the dump a few times too.
Weve learned alot in the 8yrs since this vid was posted. 3m panelbond is THE way to go, at that point the rivets just hold it till its cured. Mines so stiff ,when I jack the front end up on one side to change a tire, the other side comes off the ground within another 2". When you do the same in the back, it pretty much lifts the whole back end from either side.
Lo asombroso de este trabajo es que fue CON PUROS REMACHES, SANTO DIOS, NI UN PUNTO DE SOLDADURA....
really dope. love guys who can build things out of nothing or almost nothing. Really cool
what an incredible project, without words. imagine a Jetta, leaving with 4 doors? congratulations
Work alone for thus project how amazing sir.... Welldone...
that was very sharp I like that I'm an S10 person and it looks very nice
I can't say enough about this video. I really x100 love this.
Very satisfying watch, thank you for posting. Great stuff 👍👍✌️
What an excellent idea. I believe there would still be plenty of demand for small pickup style vehicles like this for so many people who'd like a light economical pickup car/truck like this. Excellent concept and demo, Mark Smith. :-)
The home built Smyth utes have definitely filled a void...cut em all:)
Dope stuff... Should be a club just for those... Would look sick seeing a crew of those cruisin'....
That was fricken awesome, love it.
É UM MAESTRO!!!👏👏👏
Amazing. You have some crazy skills. Video quality is awesome too.
Serious skills, much respect!
From zero to hero..Awsome !!
I am tempted to do this but I would copy the inner side panels and cab panel bend out of 18 gauge metal, and weld to structure and along bottom edge to help stiffen it . I think it’s cool !
Que talento que capricho parabéns pelo trabalho merece ser vista
My God you are talented!!! I have been looking for a new best friend.....when can i bring the car down??? True artisan!! Absolutely brilliant!!

Perencanaan yg matang.
