This is going to be an epic project! My newly bought Porsche 914 is safely in the hands of Yorkshire Car Restoration, but first the guys are going to tell me why this was a bad idea, and everything that's wrong with it...

ive never heard of yorkshirecarrestoration but looking at some of there projects and finished projects on there web site you've taken the porsche 914 to the right people 👍
I’ve been watching YCR for a year or so. What with Matt Armstrong’s BMW 635 csi and various other UA-camrs sending their cars there my jaw dropped when you revealed the 914 and taking it to YCR - I smiled and thought “hell yeah!” - I’m looking forward to this!
Hello from Ecuador! I've been a fan for several years but I must admit that I am more excited about seeing the 914 being brought back to life than I am about thousand horsepower supercars that noone wants or can afford! I'm old at 76 so I remember the 914 and coveted 916! Keep it coming. Cheers.
I have a neighbor who recently restored one of these at a local shop. It was in significantly worse condition than this one. The entire floor was completely rusted out (like the car from the Flintstones) there was absolutely no interior at all. There was rust halfway up the doors too. It sat outside for close to 20 years completely rotting away at his mother's house under a tree. It's been cleaned, got new floors and doors, and it looks pretty decent now. It's a really light light blue color. Just about the same color as the Shmoo sweatshirt.
I completely understand your panic in that situation mate. I’m an HGV driver and travel the country everyday and that exact situation happens every single day. I must see it at least once a day. I’m glad it didn’t turn into something disastrous.
Finally! A car on Shmee's channel that I actually can relate to. This was my dream car in high school and it was my first car I bought as an "adult". I've owned 4 of them (1.7, 1.8 and 2.0) before graduating to a 944 and then a few years later, a 911 Targa. I greatly enjoyed owning my last 914...it was a 1974 2.0L that the previous owner ( a Porsche hobby racer) built as his daily driver. Mostly stock with just a little tune on the engine. Loved that car! Don't know why there isn't one in the my garage now. Enjoy it Shmee...I'll be looking forward to the updates!
Glad you had good reactions Tim! I have seen those kind of maneuvers before over here in FL, WHILE I am driving my semi! So aggravating and uncalled for! There is NO logical or sensible excuse for being in THAT big of a rush! Stay safe!
That was my first car when I was 18. So much fun. I had Dellorto carbs, Koni shocks, Pirellis, cut springs, Ansa exhaust, and a Momo steering wheel. The whole kit. I think I’ll try to find another one. Great, fun car.
Thankful you didn't have a wreck. Glad you are safe. Enjoying this content. Hope you get another old car one day. Very interesting watching them talking about damage and repairs to the old cars in the shop.
If it's on dashcam then send it to the local plod. Highway Code rule 259? covers this..."You MUST never cross from the slip road and go directly into either lane 2 or 3, stay in the first lane for a while until you've adjusted to the traffic, then make your planned moved into the lanes to the right."
The standard of driving in the UK has gone downhill drastically in recent years. As someone who drives quite a few miles as part of my job, it's astonishing the behaviour some people exhibit.
Brilliant car Tim. As you're diving into this financial disaster, may be you should do a restomod with Cayman drivetrain, factory wide body panels, sport suspension, etc. Exited to see final product.
I had the chance (about 10 years ago) to buy a really cheap 914 here in Brazil, but let the oportunity pass. Now I regret it, because the value of those cars have gone through the roof in here. Now I own a perfect condition Opel (chevrolet) Calibra, and I'm very happy with the car. It's not about the car, but what it makes you feel.
When you compared the project to something Mat Armstrong or Chris Slix would do, I was looking forward to seeing you using your tools and getting your hands dirty rebuilding it.
The more you see of the other cars, the more you were worried about your car but more importantly you realize you are absolutely in the right place to get yours in order.
Already the best Shmee video ever, and only going to get better. Wow love this type of stuff and already subscribed to yorkshirecarrestoration to follow this. Thank you for this awesome content!
Loved this video. It will be interesting to see how this sort of content does. There's something really special about a classic car. The 914 is a particularly unique and quirky one and it looks great in that colour. Looking forward to seeing what issues lie beneath the skin and how the car looks with its new lease of life.
I wonder if Tim's going to restore it to stock or take this opportunity to pep it up a little bit? I'm sure there are lots of performance upgrades available like suspension and brakes or rebuilding the engine with some more modern performance parts.
I can't wait to see this car restored. This car is going to be a rebulid series. It looks so interesting. Hope this car changes into the best 914/4 porshe with the most wierdest story. Can't wait shmee.
When it is completed, that's going to be one very cool car, i suspect it's going to be a keeper, you'll get invested in it and it'll be part of the crew.
I am very excited to see what happens with this project. When I was a kid in the 1980s I remember seeing one of these in a yellow color and thought the front of the 914 was the back 😅
This is so sick! Shmee doing a rebuild series is awesome because coming from mat and tavarish, i love to see cars being rebuilt into perfection and I can safely say shmee knows perfection when it comes to his unique taste.
The level of driving in the U.K. is shocking at times. In Europe some countries drives take a bit more pride in road use. I would swap all the Cars in Tim’s Garage for a Mint Mk1 Escort Mexico and a DB5…. And a Mint classic MINI club sport - I’d be happy. 😂
So nice you trust them and running a project together! I followed MA project and they are true legends! Looking forward to see the final product - Shmee blue? 😜
My gramps has done a 1941 Cadillac all original in black on white walls, and won 1st place in low rider mag for most original. He just finished a 1971 firebird, mostly original besides the paint, he went for a 2018 Audi metallic blue color I forget the name and the color code but it’s GORGEOUS. My plan is to find a nice 1987 Grand National GNX that needs some love and throw a LSX in it with modern suspension and brakes. Gonna keep the engine stock and NA with a conservative redline so you can lay down on the throttle all day long and never have to think about breaking anything.
A few years ago a guy I worked with had one and I looked into the interior. I was surprised because I'd forgotten just how spartan they were. Wrap a 1" ratchet strap around the body and over the top.
You should go completely left field and resto mod it. Lowered Stance suspension, performance motor. Custom wheels. Bet there wouldn’t be to many around with a resto mod. While your in The body. Widen the guards.etc etc 👍
I had the exact thing happen to me years ago with the trailer incident. Driving fir a friend at the time one our way to a Major Car show. Maneuvered out of a possible 5 to 8 car ply up. My friend saw my quick reaction 😮 was like Damn Son that’s some driving. I looked at him and said Thank you but we had a lot of Luck wirk in out favor. He said damn, can drive and is modest . Your my new Driver for Audiobahn. That’s a story for when we get to see each other this year. Hopefully 🙏 Grateful y’all are both not hurt and no damage to either car 😇 loving the videos ❤
Didn't realise there was only 4 Rx3's in the country. I guess im lucky enough to have seen one in person and get a photo of it on film a couple years ago
This is perfect, this will be a very successful project. You will be learning a lot. I hope you get tge chance to fabricate a portion of your car. Maybe, a conversion to a 6 cylinder???
Tim, you have to put a 6 Cylinder in it 👍☹️ I owned a few of the cars in their stock I loved my old Opal Manta seeing theirs brought back some great memories
I had the exact same thing happen to me where a car came from the entrance ramp all the way across two lanes of traffic right in front of me going 30 mph slower than I was. Fortunately I wasnt towing but driving my Mini and i was able to brake, get on to the hard shoulder and get around them. Much profanity ensued!
Just a heads up next time you put it on a trailer reverse it on so it gives the trailer positive noseweight and more stability & safety. Mid and rear engined cars go on trailers backwards.
Hi Tim, Good on you for rescuing the 914. Can’t wait to see the progress. As time goes on I’m sure you’ll acquire more… I can visualise an Austin Seven at the back of the Shmuseum by the fuel pumps. 🤓 Great content dear fellow. Thank you 👍
Shmee150 Great Video I'm glad your 914/4 is at Yorkshire Car Restoration getting restored and I can't wait to see the first update and I think they have some pretty cool cars
My vote is for tracking down a 914 v6 from this era to swap if possible . With restorations their always so many surprises...good and bad. Hoping for more good. Looks like it has a good foundation hopefully. Being from USA and Canada hopefully it didn't see many winters and dreaded roadsalt and sand that rsusts out so many cars her quickly. This should be fun To see your vision and upgrades over stock or keeping it stock . Thanks Tim. Nice choice by hour gf 😀
Will definitely be following the 914. I’m the original owner of an all original 1973 914 2.0 litre and in Canada they only came with the appearance group with chrome bumpers and those Fuch alloy wheels. Was never driven in the winter.
With the Cleo V6 & The BMW already been restored and in the collection I just know the Yorkshire car team will bring the Porsche back to former glory buzzing to see what u do plus wondering what plate you use😅
Make it exciting, forget about the flat 4, forget about the flat 6, keep it pure, and put a 928 S4 motor in it. Many many motors out there. Just move the water pump to be electric. There are a few people that have done the conversion What's the plus part of it is that every replacement body panel is made for that car.
good luck w/ this fun project! i customized a similar model on my gta garage back in like 2014 in a dew yellow & stealth rims! lava red sounds clean too!
kept being distracted by that gorgeous Nightfire Red Mini that yourkshire car restro have in their garage😍. However your Porsche 914 is going to look Mega when it's done, The current colour is lovely.
I love it as you can use it as a base to build a really nice runner. You have to have the vision for it and do a tasteful build.. But definitely for you a learning process
The car was built in Germany but it was imported to canada and then imported to the United States of America then imported to the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland

ive never heard of yorkshirecarrestoration but looking at some of there projects and finished projects on there web site you've taken the porsche 914 to the right people 👍
In my opinion a wide body engine swap restomod would be the best thing for that car.
Great idea to diversify from your normal cars. Excited to see how you add your ideology to an older car
PLEASE put a tan leather interior into it, its crying out for it
I’ve been watching YCR for a year or so. What with Matt Armstrong’s BMW 635 csi and various other UA-camrs sending their cars there my jaw dropped when you revealed the 914 and taking it to YCR - I smiled and thought “hell yeah!” - I’m looking forward to this!
Love it! Thanks so much for coming down Tim, this is going to be an epic journey!!! ❤
Can't wait for what's ahead!
An epic journey indeed thanks for sharing with us, have a great sunday gentlemen.
@@Shmee150 I wonder if it takes a lot of work would it be worth having it powder coated like Mat Armstrong's before it has a great paint job.
Love the exposure the Yorkshire guys are getting, especially after taking on Mat Armstrongs BMW.
cant wait for this to turn into a series, I love seeing car restorations
I can't wait for the satisfaction of it being finished, going to be mega
@@Shmee150the journey is part of the satisfaction not just the finished product
I'm sure that's why he did it, as car restoration series are all the rage now!

let's goooooo!

That's epic! What a great story, thanks for sharing

That V6 swapped M1 Miata is cool but I've seen people who have jammed Chevy LS V8s out of Corvettes into M1 Miatas now that's crazy.
Thankful you didn't have a wreck. Glad you are safe. Enjoying this content. Hope you get another old car one day. Very interesting watching them talking about damage and repairs to the old cars in the shop.

I like this direction of the channel. Obviously I love seeing what I can’t afford, but seeing this too is amazing.
This 914 brings a new life and freshness to this channel. Hope more classics join the garage and many series thus made! - Long time Shmee150 viewer.
The Yorkshire Car Restoration guys seem like a lovely bunch!
Your dad owns a Jag...I can see that good taste runs in the family! I love it!
I have had several classic cars restored. Expect the unexpected,but when it’s all completed,it will be like going back in time. Good luck!
I love these restoration series. I know you don’t do the work yourself but the restorations you have done are so good.
I'm looking forward to seeing the 914 to be finished and going on awesome journeys and adventures.
The standard of driving in the UK has gone downhill drastically in recent years. As someone who drives quite a few miles as part of my job, it's astonishing the behaviour some people exhibit.

I think you are the perfect person to do projects like this ,do one original and do another one in a crazy restomod platform.

These 914s are great autocross cars, cant wait to see what adventures lie ahead. Thanks for sharing Tim!
So cool to see you get a p-car project! I hope you got her nice n cheap ;)
Really good to see something a little different on the channel. Some great characters & a great story in the making.
I wonder if Tim's going to restore it to stock or take this opportunity to pep it up a little bit? I'm sure there are lots of performance upgrades available like suspension and brakes or rebuilding the engine with some more modern performance parts.

At first I thought the 914 was too small and dinky for a Schmee project but now I can see that it will be very interesting
I saw the other Cosmos at Castle Combe Circuit last year. Its looked amazing.
I am very excited to see what happens with this project. When I was a kid in the 1980s I remember seeing one of these in a yellow color and thought the front of the 914 was the back 😅
These seem like real genuine dudes. Can't wait to see how this plays out.

Porsche 914 is an underrated icon and YCR never disappoint
Let's get it more into the public eye and demand! It deserves it

If you do modify some of it please get rid of the front side reflectors or at least reduce the size. Also fit the six in it.

9:45 @ shmee150 I think the jaguar needs a little bit of work As I am hearing a tiny bit of noise coming from the engine.
Thats the roller shutter you can hear.
The 914 is such a cool and under appreciated car. I’m so glad you took this on.
Can't wait for it to be done!
Didn't realise there was only 4 Rx3's in the country. I guess im lucky enough to have seen one in person and get a photo of it on film a couple years ago
I actually like the colour a lot. It suits the car better than others and goes well with the wheels.
Shmee, You really need to have a dash cam in every vehicle you drive on a daily basis. Me owning one in my cars have saved my bacon more than once.
Ironically, we do in the dailies often now; but this is my Dad's car, so arguably I could have put one in but didn't have one by default
Fascinating content. Seeing passionate professionals like these guys is captivating. Enjoyed that video a lot thank you Shmee.
This is perfect, this will be a very successful project. You will be learning a lot. I hope you get tge chance to fabricate a portion of your car. Maybe, a conversion to a 6 cylinder???
Tim, you have to put a 6 Cylinder in it 👍☹️ I owned a few of the cars in their stock I loved my old Opal Manta seeing theirs brought back some great memories
YCR is such an amazing channel, i fully urge people to go and subscribe to them. Absolute geniuses and so relaxing to watch.
Love a resto build ,good luck Tim
Should have done a collaboration with Richard hammonds ‘The smallest cog’ restoration garage
My first car was a 1974 Porsche 914 and I still have it. Very cool dude.
Love that you still have it!!
Have just recently seen Jay Leno's Garage featuring a 914/6 GT. A great car and can't wait to see the restoration and outcome.
Electrify it Tim, really looking forward to this, 930 electric is so much fun unless you bump into a Porsche purist, so prepare yourself!
The 914 has a lovely rear end if I may say so, looking forward to seeing this one progress
I had the exact same thing happen to me where a car came from the entrance ramp all the way across two lanes of traffic right in front of me going 30 mph slower than I was. Fortunately I wasnt towing but driving my Mini and i was able to brake, get on to the hard shoulder and get around them. Much profanity ensued!
I can imagine, not cool!
People try doing that type of thing a lot in the US for the sole reason to get you to hit them then they try to sue you out of everything you own...
Great purchase, part of it is preserving motoring history. It now has a great home,more older cars shmee.
Just a heads up next time you put it on a trailer reverse it on so it gives the trailer positive noseweight and more stability & safety. Mid and rear engined cars go on trailers backwards.
Hi Tim,
Good on you for rescuing the 914.
Can’t wait to see the progress.
As time goes on I’m sure you’ll acquire more…
I can visualise an Austin Seven at the back of the Shmuseum by the fuel pumps. 🤓
Great content dear fellow.
Thank you 👍
I'd say turn the 914 into a long-term project. It deserves a lot of love and care.
I love this purchase. I love seeing these "OEM+" builds.
I was hoping for an epic Singer build series but hey🤷🏾♂️
This is cool too…😂
The Cayman GT4 purple colours was a wrap though , underneath it was white.
Shmee150 Great Video I'm glad your 914/4 is at Yorkshire Car Restoration getting restored and I can't wait to see the first update and I think they have some pretty cool cars

TIM, will this be a full on resto or a resto-mod? Some of these have turned out quite nice. Can't wait. Cheers
With the Cleo V6 & The BMW already been restored and in the collection I just know the Yorkshire car team will bring the Porsche back to former glory buzzing to see what u do plus wondering what plate you use😅
Is that Jonny Smith's barn find BMW CS coupe on the ramp?
This is going to be an epic and interesting project.
Can’t wait to see this getting rebuilt.
Thank you
😎😎😎👍👍👍
Why didn't you take the purosangue for towing?
Thanks Shmee for explaining your reasons for buying.. makes sense.. also if Puppi gives the go ahead who are we to complain.😊
If the boss says yes, you go go go!
Make it exciting, forget about the flat 4, forget about the flat 6, keep it pure, and put a 928 S4 motor in it. Many many motors out there.
Just move the water pump to be electric. There are a few people that have done the conversion
What's the plus part of it is that every replacement body panel is made for that car.
good luck w/ this fun project! i customized a similar model on my gta garage back in like 2014 in a dew yellow & stealth rims! lava red sounds clean too!
Awesome, just started watching and can't wait for this restoration!
Please go all "Harry Metcalfe" on this. Both in restoration and filming the work.
kept being distracted by that gorgeous Nightfire Red Mini that yourkshire car restro have in their garage😍. However your Porsche 914 is going to look Mega when it's done, The current colour is lovely.
I love it as you can use it as a base to build a really nice runner. You have to have the vision for it and do a tasteful build.. But definitely for you a learning process
can't wait to see more of the Porsche
Hey Tim . Im Steve's Brother . Really looking forward to this build the guys should knock this out of the park for you.
It's going to be epic! I'm super excited
Vice Grip Garage says to look in the boot first, the parts you find give you a good heads-up 🤔
I used to own one. Great car! Also try to find a Karma Gia convertible I had the 1967.
Brilliant. I love to see the trades on display. I am a machinist and love this 👍
The car was built in Germany but it was imported to canada and then imported to the United States of America then imported to the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland
I love this little blast from the past!! I've been here since day one and can't wait to see the the shiney new end product!!💯👌😊💯👌😊
I hope they're giving you a discount on the restoration based on the extra money they'll be making from your videos...
You’re in good hands. Great video!😊
Yes, the best
I know you are saying restoration. However this could be a very good opportunity for some upgrades. Big upgrades!
It’s shaped like a banana… Did you keep the receipt?” Yorkshire car restoration 😂 ❤ looking forward to seeing it done and all the work along the way 😊
Love seeing the old and rare Mazdas
Be patient, a great restoration takes skill and time. This is exciting.
Yeahhh! Shmee will drive this on next Mille Miglia 😊
Cheap for a reason, wonder how many people walked away from it when they were still 6 feet away.
