Restoring ABANDONED Porsche 993 Carrera to SHOWROOM floor - PART 1/2
Вставка
- Опубліковано 6 вер 2024
- This Porsche 993 Carrera Cabriolet was abandoned in the desert for over FIVE YEARS and found it's way to us for a total restoration. We were tasked by Porsche Scottsdale to bring this abandoned barn find back to life. We pulled out everything we have: dry ice cleaning the chassis, engine bay, wheel wells, exterior trim and soft top. We gave it its first wash in over 5 years, premium paint correction, and reworked the entire car from the ground up!
We replaced so many parts on this car I don't even know where to start! The car was part of a yearly Porsche dealer competition where they compete to who restores the best car.
This is the biggest video we've ever done, so we split it up in to two videos, with part TWO coming this Tuesday! Click the remind button on our channel so you can be alerted when it goes live!
Enjoy the video, give it a thumbs up and consider subscribing!
Thank you!

I could watch the dry ice stripping process all day. Whoever figured this out is a genious. Amazing work!
Man that's an ice?! i was trying to figure out if that's' a steam or sand lol :D
@@aljoker7808 it’s just dry ice that is compressed in some way I guess. It’s pretty wild.
@@PMPerformance Yeah i realised after watching bit more, its mind blowing.
@@aljoker7808 what I wonder is who and how did they come up with this? I wish I was that creative?
@@PMPerformance Probably by an accident, they were using it and realised it strips rust :)
I love that you dismantled whatever you could and even cleaned the wiring harnesses. Very few would go this pedantic, even high-end places. Honestly I think this is one of the best details on YT. Kudos to you and Best Wishes!
That means a ton! We really appreciate it!
I would say it's a car in original and very good overall condition stored under cover but exposed to wind blown desert dust but no direct UV damage.
Great detail and transformation, just shows what is possible.!
Thank you.
Thanks so much Geoff!
Fantastic job as always... Cannot wait to see the finishing touches on part 2. Love how you bring back these older Porsches
What a bizzare thing to say
Amazing, wow. This is close to perfection!
Thank you Herman!
Awesome colour, awesome car, and awesome job. Looks like new
Love this color
Arena Red Metallic 👍
👌❤️
Man!......I love that "Dry Ice Blast"!!........love it!!
My GF had one like this. I believe Porsche calls that color Amethyst. Beautiful! Nice interior.
They rode stiff as a brick, even on the highway.
I find it so satisfying watching you give new life to a neglected Porsche...you guys are the Michelangelo of paint correction...wow!
I love dry ice blasting, looks so good!
Ahhh.... can't wait for the next video ! 😍
You guys are outstandingly amazing 👏🏽
Thank you!!
That dry ice cleaning still amazes me , That is a game changer
Never been so anxious for part 2 of a video as this.
The best detailing channel on UA-cam. Objective, no small talk, just great work.
Ps. Waiting to see (possible) the video of that SL black series 👀
Oh it’s coming!
It is impressive how durable car parts are, extensive cleaning+polishing and all these plastic, seats and carpets look like new.
Love the dry ice blasting, SO satisfying. Such a beautiful colour on a beautiful car.
This dry ice pressure washing is amazing. I sure wish I had this system 30 years ago.
Dry ice cleaning is so satisfying to watch 🤤
So far, this transformation is coming out spot on. 😎👍🏻
It’s a beauty!!
Dry ice cleaning the under carriage seems so satisfying; definitely want to try it…
It's almost hard to edit the videos because it's soo soothing
dry ice cleaning is sooo satisfying...
Perfect job perfect tools perfect experts
Refuse to call this a restoration. I'm having a light restoration done on one car and full restoration on the halo car. When the halo car is restored it won't be anywhere near this good. We need another name. Fabulous job.
🤣🤣🙌🏽 thank you :)
As always your attention to detail is on point, every single video you guys post is relaxing and mesmerizing. Thanks for the amazing content you provide! PD: can you show more from BMW?
We have a couple BMWs coming soon! Thank you for the support!!
I haven't seen such a detailed and hardworking effort from youtuber for quite some times... Great job!!
Amazing transformation!! Seriously fantastic work guys.
🙌🏽🙌🏽
Dryce is the biggest cheat code ever. what a time saver.
It’s definitely a Game Shark
Fantastic! didn't even know about dry ice cleaning
That Porsche need a transformation, amazing color well done once again.
The level of work/detail here means the only home this 911 should end up in is a museum...!
No rust..that is dream for car guys. No winter, no salt
my friend, this is a great job, congratullatios, from BRASIL Marcelo.
🤌💸🙌🏽
Very necessary in the final, to make a before and after, good work
Absolutely incredible work by a staff that clearly knows their trade. The level of detail and the confidence to pull a car apart to clean/restore every square inch, blows my mind. Great work!
The car looks stunning but I can hardly imagine that it set in the desert for five years. After dry ice cleaning the bottom there was not a single spot of rust or corrosion on the floor or on any part underneath it. Even in a desert that’s exceptional, and it looked brand spanking new actually after dry iceing. The 993 must have been at least 20 years old already when it was parked, and in an outstanding condition to. Otherwise I don’t think it would have survived it this way after five years in the burning desert, not even a Porsche. I think that the interior for example would have been fried completely. And why would you park a neat Porsche in the desert and leave it untouched for five years? There must’ve been a mechanical problem with it or…, well crazier things happend, but I still can’t imagine.
Desert climate is so dry no moisture can oxidize with metal
One of the best car detailing videos I’ve seen on UA-cam ! Subscribed.
You folks are top notch, and execution of details is perfection! Thanks for sharing. One question When any vehicle is left to rot like the ones you reclaim, is there any maintenance like fluids, filters, belts, etc... performed by an outside source? I know low milage can be deceptive to some, especially when the vehicle looks better than new when you're done. But 5 years is long time between service. Just curious?
TORNADOR! one of my favs
Great tool
Great work!!! Amazing transformation!
Thank you!
You’ll never find an undercarriage that well preserved and rust free up here in the northeast.
Hi good morning,,, lm looking your special video about cleaning this Porsche,,,
I dont know this proces using dry ice
Realy amazing,,, all new for me,,,
Im fan of the care in the cars,,,
Congratulaciones by your job,,, greetings of your friend Oscar de Playa del Carmen Q. R. MÉXICO
Liking forward to tomorrow and seeing how you do in the competition!
amazing job guys....congrats
So much well deserved love!
Lovely ending story , keep on !!
If this car were sat in the desert for so long....that leather would have been.....no more....and so would have the soft top....apart from that....SUPERB JOB, ABSOLUTE SUPERB.
So good and so motivating.
Pro level here.
Cool restoration job!! 😎👍🏿
Thanks! Big one!
That was just crazy !!!! If you all were here in Houston, I'd have you makeover my 1994 850SCSi !!!
Best detailer on UA-cam!
Sooo satisfying 🤤
I know right 😍
That Porsche looks like a new car,👌👍☝🏽👏🏿
🙌🏽🙌🏽
Makes me want to get back into Detailing.
Deeply satisfying video, excellent work guys !
Excelente trabajo. saludos desde Venezuela
Awesome job as always sir! I remember the movie "The Specialist" with Sylvester Stallone, James Woods drove a 1992 Porsche 968 Convertible in this same color. Looking forward to Part 2.
Nice work. Question? Does the dry-ice method used on the underframe strip any of the factory protective coatings off(cadmium etc)? It looks incredible, but sometimes the grime actually helps prevent future corrosion from moisture and road salt. Do you add a protective coating afterwards? Thanks!
That is what they are doing. 90 % is removing all the cosmoline and protective coatings.Hope they apply a wax or undercoating back
Restorasi yang sangat keren
Excellent franchement bravo
wow amazing clean spray
Dude that pressure washer is a damn magic wand, what is that thing?
ice blasting more satisfying then wash :D
I'd like to see you reapply the protective undercoat that has kept the surfaces and aluminum from corrosion all these years.
Just the channel I've been looking for.
We’ve been waiting for you
Sit down and have a drink
Bonjour,quel matériel vous utilisez pour le nettoyage du châssis?Glace?Merci.
Et bravo pour ce travail magnifique.
You guys are doing great job
Very nice
Цвет очень подходит именно этой модели.Видел такую в живую на солнце. Цвет восхитительно подчеркивает ее прекрасные, повторяющиеся на разных элементах, линии блика. Машина,которая без всяких молдингов прекрасна. Совершенство!!!
Another fantastic job bru.
🙌🏽
É o sonho de muitos apaixonados por automóveis!
Amazing a dumped car. Excellent job
A 0:34 vous enlevez à la glace carbonique sous pression toute la protection de cire antirouille...
C'est beau, mais il faut absolument en remettre si vous voulez que l'auto reste belle encore longtemps !
Très bonne restoration bravo
Awesome, but I don't get why the owners would want to leave (what's left of) that caliper paint original. Especially considering they resprayed some other portions of the car.
Interesting choice but they end up looking rather good
You know how much a factory paint job costs? Especially on a Porsche! Because that’s exactly why they left it haha (I agree with you though)
@@EJ1991 It's not that expensive to powdercoat brake calipers.
Ahhhh apologies, I misread. I assumed you were referring to the body, not the brake calipers. In that case, fully agree
This is my dream job!……… 😊
Good video mate . Keep going . You have nice videos and content 👍
I must say .....ice blast is pretty impressive
Your team has some mad skills. Where did you learn all this from?
Solid and perfect work👍
Wow! I need a dry ice machine and a lift! lol Paint came out looking incredible! Great work gentlemen!
awesome stuff
I’d have been listening to Bidibodi Bidibu by bubbles the whole time working on the Porsche
Great job .....
Thanks Carlos!
Amazing work if u can fix some problems u basically have a brand new old car
Impressive work as usual.
But your videos have made me believe that Cosmoline is an absolutely legit product.
Carros como esse Porsche valem ouro aqui no Brasil.
"Hey, can you clean that part with a wet towel, please?"
"Nah, bro, I have a dry ice cleaning machine"...
If you don’t use the dry ice, it will evaporate 😉
Amazing job
Thanks Stuart!
Again. Amazing job. Unbelievable. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻😊
Even the "basket case" air cooled Porsche coupes cost fortunes these days. But for some reason the cabriolets are not demaning nearly the same amount of money. Sure, they're still expensive but sometimes they cost maybe just half of the coupes. I wonder what's the reason for that.
this is art 👍
Mind-blowing
Good!!
🙌🏽
OMG is that a SandGrau 356 next to it? can you please do a video on that. Love that color.
Amazing..
Sehr gut
Be honest....who doesn't want one of these machines at home 🙋♂️
Increíble.. Lastima q aquí no haya nadie así
. Saludos desde España.. 😂
That has to be the most unloved 911 I've ever seen.
We helped fix that ;)
@@IAMDetailing I so enjoy watching you guys work on these cars. They're far outside my price range but it's so nice to see them cleaned up and shining in all their glory.
@@chrisnichols4962 We're glad we can bring you something to enjoy!
How much did this job cost?? Awesome results!
incredible work, impressive video, it's a real pleasure for the eyes to watch you work❤️🤩. For the next video it would be cool to present the team, the equipments and the products please 🙏
