Sitting here, ordering new SSI heat exchangers, was having a cup of coffee and looking for an air cooled video to play in the background... was going to throw on a few autokennel videos and saw you posted a new one. 20 degrees and snow/salt here still on the back roads and made my day getting to live vicariously for 15 minutes through your video...nicely done, good to see you posting another. Always enjoy the content, Erik.
That motor is to die for! So crisp, so engaging all in a 72 with that olive green! It’s mad! Thanks very much Michael, enjoyed it thoroughly, almost felt like I was along side you on the big screen 😁 More of these please 🙏🏻
Lovely being virtually aboard with you ! Great car, wonderful sound. I noticed you practically never changed gear while driving. Were you in 3rd or 4th gear ? With our high revving 911ses of today, even the 3.0 twin-turbo engines (let alone the GT3s), it seems I would have been in 4th and 5th gears (PDK in manual mode) on those same curves and stretches. Great bit of road trip, thanks ! 👌😎
What no wipers? A stunningly beautiful car, the gauges in these early 911s are held in with a rubber grommet you can pull the gauge out easily then turn your red line on the tacho to the top and push it back in.
Cool Michael! Nice run, pictureques scenery, really nice sound quality in all stages! Love the Drone shots, and with the sound! Nice to see you back too.😊👍
My mom hasn't raised an envidious man. It's not envy what I'm feeling, it's something else, something good. It's good just because I haven't won the brazilian lottery yet, so I can't give you a sh!tlo@d of money and take her from you! As an Army man, I even love the color!😂 Congrats, man!👏👏👏
Love the color and sound. Those mountains look familiar, what toad is that? I’m in SLO County but that looks north of LA maybe? I love my 3.2 in my 84’ but in that car is must be a real joy! Gorgeous car man!!
@michaelgideon6422 i have a 75 Carrera. I noticed you have the dash crack between the passenger defrost vent and the speaker. Not sure any original dash is free of this crack. What are the specs on your 3.2?
What a nice and beautiful colored Porsche, sounds amazing. Congrats! Thanks for the upload!

Beautiful string of bends - love the flow of that road. Color and sound of that machine are amazing. Cool ride along.
Thanks James!
Gorgeous car gorgeous scenery and some spirited driving! I love these old air cooled Porsches
Thanks for watching!
Yes! New video! It’s like christmas every time you post something! 🎉😊
Has a pre 76 911 ever had an original dash without the crack from the passengers defroster vent and the speaker?
Ah well thank you!
What a gorgeous car!
Snowed in NC mountains. Nice to see clear roads and a fun drive. Thanks.
Great video , great car! The only way to appreciate it is to drive it !
Awesome drive, thanks for bringing us along on another!
Thanks for watching Craig! Hope you're well sir
Magnificent Machine
You forgot to mention it also has SC/Carrera fender flares, which allow for the 7/8" wheels. Looks great.
Thank you! Yea, I left all kinds of things out. RS flares!
Sound is on point, love it!

Thanks for the kind words Nick!
Hey Mike, love Olive, I think she's one of my favorite air cooleds and the sound is amazing!
Steve! Whats new man. Appreciate the love

I go back and forth wondering if I wish I could hear the induction more or if I love the exhaust. Both great. Very nicely done.
Thanks dude. I wonder if a mic would even pic up your engine note at high rpms. Might be too damn much for a mic haha
Enjoyed that.
Glad to hear it
Great video and love the sound. Thanks for sharing
Love the color and sound. Those mountains look familiar, what toad is that? I’m in SLO County but that looks north of LA maybe? I love my 3.2 in my 84’ but in that car is must be a real joy! Gorgeous car man!!
Awesome video and Porsche! Was the driver pov shot just a gopro clipped to a hat?
Thanks! Yea, just a GoPro on the noggin
Don’t think I’ve ever seen those steering wheels in a 73 RS before
Sounds great for a short blast, maybe not for a trip though. Lovely car though.
I've done it, not bad at all..for me
Great Video, what part of California are you in.
Is that Tach the correct one? Looks different than the rest of the gauges
No, it's a tach for a three liter. Can't run the standard tach with this engine
Are the rear flares added?
Yea, the car had RS flares put in sometime in the early 80's

back way to Ojai?
What camera settings are you using?
I filmed this so quick, I'm not even sure
Wonder if anyone can help identify the exact Porsche colour (ref: number) of this car please as I’m looking to paint a 70’s 911S in this colour.
Just got mine off non-op, was asleep since covid.
Hey Michael, I can't PM you on the Pelican forums for some reason. I'd like to discuss your white 88'.
Suh dude my mk1 would smoke this thing
