Here are some pics for those who can't watch videos at work.







Panel gaps are looking good. Almost ready for paint.

I am also looking for an engine for this build. I have a 2.7 that needs rebuilding, but something a bit more interesting would be good below 3.4 litres. If anyone has anything squirrelled away for a rainy day let me know.

Great work, Jeff. Can't wait to see more progress.

I have been tinkering away again this week and I have finally built a tube bender that works. Now I will be able to move on with building the roll cage.

Here is the latest video.

So after finally building a tube bender that works, I have been able to complete the bolt in half roll cage for my car. I am far from a gun welder, but overall I am pretty happy with the result.

I'm hooked on this build! It's amazing you had never driven a 911 before considering the work you're doing. I hope you get some sponsorship for your YouTube channel. You're putting out some very entertaining content.

Great video build Jeff.
I originally found you on YouTube and subscribed, but seem to have missed the last two videos, found then now and looking forward to the next instalment.

Jeff, is dispelling the myth that one must be Porsche factory trained to mix tools with Porsches.

Thanks. I am not in this for sponsorship, or anything like that. I am just enjoying building my car, and I am happy everyone seems to be liking it. I decided to film it because I loved watching MCM and others on youTube, and found that there wasn't a lot out there like this to watch. So any mug can start a youTube channel so why don't I get off my butt and do it. I would like to grow the channel bigger, I think it is just a matter of people finding it. At the moment I have found I have a big following in Eastern Europe and Russia, it is just amazing seeing how far my little videos filmed in my shed have spread.

Actually old Porsches seem much easier than the turbo Japanese cars I used to work on when I was younger. Everything on the Porsche is so basic. It's great

Alright getting closer to putting paint on the car. But first I need somewhere to paint it. So this week I have been building myself a spray booth.

Here is the vid.

subscribed on youtube few days ago, nice videos!

I didn't even think about the inflammability of the fumes when I was building this. I will now be enclosing the fluoros with clear plastic placed diagonally across the corners of the booth. hopefully that will keep it from exploding on me ​.

Thanks mate

YEEESSS!!! I finally have paint on the car. I have spent the week going over everything with a fine tooth comb, to make sure it was all sorted before I painted, and I still ended up finding things I missed once the paint was on . But it feels like some progress has been made.
