Porsche 911 Targa Restoration// Part 5 (PUTTING IT BACK TOGETHER!!)

- Опубліковано 10 вер 2024
- After owning this 1973 Porsche 911 Targa for three years, it's finally time to start putting it back together. It was a race car for many years, and I made the decision to bring it back to a road car. This is not advisable. I would never advise anyone to do this unless you love pain, and bleeding money.
It's been a huge learning experience for me the last few years with these old cars. It's a true labor of love. Restoring an old car is no easy task. For those doing the entire thing on their own, I salute you. This was clearly too much for me, which is why I took it to Perfect lines Restoration to have them straighten the car and do the metal work. I've still done a decent amount of work on this car, but not nearly as much as I'd planned to do.
A friend to come help made this a much more enjoyable day, and a better video in my opinion.
Thanks for watching and I hope you enjoy!

Glad to hear that! Thanks for watching!
First comment! Told you to drop it today and you didn’t disappoint 🙌🏾 ⚡️. Gotta be the 1st to show ya love. Thanks as always for sharing your journey w/ these 911 beauts. I wanna be you when I grow up! 😉
Your message pushed me to upload it quicker! Thanks for the love and seeing what I'm up to with these cars. Cheers man
Yeah! Keep the videos coming 🙌. Really enjoying them 👌🏻
Thanks Dan! Hope you're well my friend
Wow! Well done…in the beginning I didn’t think you’d get it done! Great teamwork wins the day! Really enjoyed the video and hope you continue documenting the Targa build. 😀👍👍
Two is better than one! Thank you for the support! I'll post more about the car soon
@@michaelgideon6422 Look fwd to that. What are the plans for the body/paint?
@@user-ym8lt3js7l It's all done! Planning on posting a video of the car here soon
Total Respect Guys. Well done.
Great video..❤
Thank you! Appreciate it a lot
so amazing to see, Michael! you and Chris are absolute heroes for undertaking such a project and actually succeeding! it working so well during the overcrest rally on its maiden voyage is a true testament to how well you and chris know these cars. you should be real proud! the shop i occasionaly help at with porsche matters, here in Madrid, Spain, usually takes about three years to complete a car.... sending my boss your video immediately!
very kind regards from a fellow porsche enthusiast from across the pond :)
Thanks Pablo! I've owned this car almost three years now. It was at perfect lines for about a year. I'm still very surprised how well it did on the rally! We filmed this video less than two months ago. A shop helped with a lot of the mechanical work between this video and the rally, so I certainly won't take credit for doing all the work. Appreciate the comment, and would love to visit you guys in Spain someday. Cheers
Looking forward to seeing the progress!
Thanks Craig! I'll share more very soon. It's gotten pretty far!
Keep up the good work! It’s awesome to see all of these cars you’re working on and putting in the grind!
Thanks! My grind is about to end :) I'm exhausted
Nice work fellas
Thanks!
Oh yeah I’ve also bought a bunch of cars as shells with everything in boxes. Great way to get a deal on a classic but it’s always sad to see the guys who’ve been defeated by the process.
It would be fun to hear about your most memorable finds.
Saw your IG.Great to see it on the road🎉🎉🎉
The green machine is a runner! Spoiler alert for the YT crowd :)
Michael, I sent you a PM on pelican forums about wheels. -JuniorVarsity
