The Original Outlaw: First Ever Porsche 356 Carrera Outlaw Build!
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 25 май 2020
- Outlaw Porsches have never really been out of style… and this is their daddy. This ain’t your normal catalog-ordered modding, we’re talking about fully custom machined/drilled/crafted/swapped amazingness. Built by Dean Jeffries and swapped with a 4 cam 1600cc motor, with a euro front and frenched lights, kept all-original since it was built. And believe you me, that’s pretty damn rare.

At an early age, I used part of my allowance to acquire a copy of the October 1959 issue of Rod & Custom, and I swiftly became mesmerized by the coolest car I had ever seen - Dean Jeffries' customized Porsche 356 Carrera coupe. From that day onward, I became a fan of Porsche, and Dean Jeffries whose customs were so much more sleek and desirable than the garish extremes of too many others to mention. Dean's iconic Posche shimmers with a brilliance that others simply cannot match.
I owned the car from 1968 until mid 1971. Bought out of Orlando Sentinel paper classifieds for $ 1000.00 and drove it through most of high school. It was truly a great car, lots of fun. The rear custom Lucite tail lights were awesome looking but dangerously dim in bright sun when you applied the brakes. Jack Walter, third owner after me, cared for her all those years and did such a wonderful restoration! So glad Mr. Wiener has it back in California and will enjoy driving her on a regular basis. Great video!
The Hoonigan Autofocus is the the best series that Hoonigan put out. I cant stop watching and re-watching these episodes
I believe this is the first that Larry didn’t mention anything about his beloved Datsun/Nissan mistresses

Cheeky one
thankfully
Hoonigan AutoFocus - I should get a nickel and dime for each mention. :)
@@LarryChenPhoto ZZZZZZZ
Autofocus is my favourite automotive channel to watch at this point. So stoked to have found it. Larry also just cool without trying. Dope.
I dig the music on this one, matches the car for sure
I'm so glad this car went to someone who chose to preserve Dean Jeffries' work, rather than restore it. I understand that as an original Carrera, it's worth more in stock configuration, but this deserves to stay the way Dean built it. Some folks weren't a fan of it then and many more dislike it now. In my opinion, this car is a very unique High Water Mark from the Golden Age of Customs.
Traditional Custom Cars made a triumphant return in the 90s and have stayed around this time. But Sports Customs, such as Jeffries' Porsche, have not experienced the same revival. I suspect this is due to the fact that most of the type of Sports Cars being customized in the 50s and 60s might as well be worth their weight in gold now.
As an aside, that design technique all over the car is called "Engine Turning". Also, while the tail lights have been "Frenched" (the body surround coming up to meet the lens all around), the headlights and fog lights have been "Tunneled" (speaks for itself). Frenching was commonplace on Customs starting Pre-WWII, while Tunneling was more of a late 50s trend that really found widespread usage on Customs in the early 60s.
Not many people can say I drove a 4 cam Porsche around LA for fun and I’m gonna put a lot miles on it , good for you Bro
You pick the dopest cars in the world to feature, Larry. This may be the best of all of them. Thanks.
Most beautiful flying egg I've ever laid my eyeballs on.
A Car built like a hundred year old pocket watch!
I owned this car from 1971-2018 and spent twelve years restoring it to exactly as it was when it rolled out of Barris shop in 1957.
I was proud to call Dean Jeffries a friend and I'm a great admirer of him and his cars.
Gary Emory - Rod's father coined the term Outlaw Porsche in the 1960's when he started building custom Porsches.
This car was one of his inspirations when he saw it at a car show in LA around 1960-61. The Kustom Karrera predates the Outlaw term.
This Porsche was built in George Barris' shop by Dean Jeffries and the rest of the Barris shop crew in 1956-57. Bill Hines did the lead work and roof scoops.
It was Dean's personal car from 1956-62 and appeared in dozens of magazines including the cover of Rod & Custom in 1959.
Dean was the contract painter for Barris in the 1950's and painted James Dean's 550 Spyder. Jeffries was best known for the Mantaray show car, the Monkeemobile, the Green Hornets car and numerous cars he built for Hollywood movies. He was also a friend of Carroll Shelby and painted the very first Cobra numerous times as Carroll didn't want the press to know he only had the one prototype completed.
Amen Brother, I don’t think anybody knows more than the Emory’s.
JH Walter I emailed you about this car in lik 2003...not sure if you remember but my friend is very deep in the air cooled Porsche community and we found your resto thread on 356registry or something like that. So cool to see it now!!!
JH what was it like driving with the 550 engine ?
AutoFocus is one of the greatest channels. Please keep making these!
Holy shit! I’ve known about this car since maybe 2003. So cool to see it fully restored and running...what a great piece of history and art!
Never seen a car that looks so old and modern at the same time... Lovely car
Great video guys! The patterning on the engine bay, door jams and elsewhere throughout is called 'engine turning'
Never seen an exhaust mounted license plate before lol
Only for them prestine curves
Well now you have
I remember seeing this in Jack's garage a long time ago as a kid. Glad it's getting to show off it's beauty to the world again
Hi Jesse, this car was in Jack's garage from about 1971 - 2018. Now that we brought her back to So Cal, we'll be hitting the show circuits again!
Shoutout out to Larry for this amazing content to keep us going!
Thanks Larry! Hope you are catching up on your sleep in quarantine. You bring by far the best, most crazy content. Stay safe out there.
When Rod Emory goes to sleep, this is the car he dreams about 😀👌
Reutter was doing most of the coachbuilding for Porsche back in the days. The bare shells were brought to the factory and got equipped there
Larry and Hoonigan guys, thank you so much for keeping the great content coming during the lockdown. Much needed and loved!! :)
Old school hot rodders used to paint black around trim areas like gauges to make sure no metal would show through when they would upholster dashboards and door panels. The glue for the original upholstery probably fell off the dash.
So the dash was upholstered in leather?
Most likely Yes.
The dash is finished in silver leaf that has been hand-turned using a cotton ball and highlighted with an airbrushed border in black lacquer. Exactly as it was done by Dean Jeffries in 1956. I sat in his shop for an hour while he described exactly how to reproduce the finish. It was still in the original finish when I got the car in 1971 - like a dummy I sanded it down and painted it black - took me at least 4-5 days to recreate it.
I love autofocus SUCH a great channel
Have we figured the outro song yet?? So epic
I’ve been trying to figure it out too! Lol
ruclips.net/video/oHg5SJYRHA0/видео.html
@@LarryChenPhoto Great, now when the song replays in my head over and over i can be reminded how i got rickrolled by Hoonigan. Curse you!!!
@@LarryChenPhoto Ask in house Polak Ron what it sounds like she's saying
@@LarryChenPhoto ruclips.net/video/y6120QOlsfU/видео.html
the " pattern " is called " engine turning "
I bet that guy throws kickass boat parties
Wow, what a masterpiece. The owner looks like he never gets pissed off with that friendly face.
The exhaust has such a beautiful sound oh my lord
Larry man, keep em coming 😎👌
Gorgeous Car 👍
Did you know you can find Larry's dope photos in the description?
Nope. Thx!
This needs to be on Jay Leno's Garage
*incredible*
its a happy car. look at it. ya can't help but smile at it :D
That is one beautiful car.
The sound tho.. wow!
I just love this outro
That thing's priceless.
Nice car dude but nobody has more fun than Jay Leno in this business.
NEW ERA MEDIA haha so true, I was about to say something similar...
1st outlaws were built by Otto Gluckler at his Porsche dealership in FRANKFURT Germany in the early 50s.
Not sure about the “pink Panther” style music 🤣🤣🤣 Beautiful car and great video 👍
better than lame generic beats. it’s tiresome hearing the same stuff over and over
356 Carrera Outlaw and larry !!!! epic ..epic!!! i'm saying Thank you to JAy for bringing it out and featuring it , i'm saying thank you for everyone who forgot to say thank you ...hope the car community gets to see that hr of shooting or pics on website or something ...
*Давайте изменим все вместе.* 🏭
Sold for $436,750!
Far from a million or 2 need less to say lol
Very cool guy. He reminds me of Fabio with short hair
Love the rear and side view. Not so much the front.
Engine turning is the name of the aesthetic treatment on the firewall. It has been around way before cars, just look at old watch faces.
And those are the original pieces hand turned by Dean Jeffries in 1956. On the back of the panel containing the Reutter Karosserie badge there are different patterns he was trying out.
Cool owner, cooler car👌
Big thanks to Larry, Leif and the Hoonigan crew. Also great to see Jack W. from Georgia here! Check us out on Instagram @ outlaw_carrera
It's the rich mans beetle!
lol
This is the engine people always refer to with the whole "ya know a porch motor bolts right in! Swear to god back in high school this guy had one and would smoke mustangs!" Theres one of those guys in every crowd any time you drive a classic bug out in public.
No rice here !!
Hi there I wood love to see John sarkisyan vw beetle on Hoonigan Autofocus
fantastic! Never knew why it was called Outlaw
We have more fun!!!
It’s the Porsche Weiner mobile
"That silver though!" - Fact to note... Silver was the color of German Race Cars, Red Italian, Blue French, and Green British
Whaaaaaaatt
That car is like Marilyn Monroe with silver dress. Stuck in time but never aged.
*thats nice* some cars need to be untouched
Whats the Outro song?
As the old saying goes, excuse my french but if I had that car and Jay had a feather stuck you know where we would both be tickled
cwome
👍🏾🇯🇲👍🏾
Awesome video!//// Excellent///
Jay has good taste in cars////
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dean_Jeffries
My father said this Porsche is valued @2.5M
This is the real deal, folks//// NOT a replica///
That Porsche Is Sexy!!!
Wuts The Intro Song ???
First thing that really stood out to me was the taillights, so ahead of there time
Why not a longer drive?
The intro was HARDCORE porn !!!
So he buys the car for 500-750k from the seller in georgia and then claims it worth 1-2mil ... lololol
business 101
@martin i You dont think the previous owner knew what it was worth? You're acting like it was a barn find..... It was all over petrolicious.... people with money knew this car existed...
@@poisonouspython1410 Business 201 - this was a poor investment.
The original “outlaw” Porsche, named so because it pissed off Porsche fans, and then was bought by Albert Nussbaum, making it an outlaw’s outlaw.
1939 PORSCHÈ 64 🛡️

😍 SEXY AF
Cars great photos great videos great larry is great...... owner is odd. You a weird dude. Sorry🤷🏽♂️
this guy definitely sniffs his own farts
so smug.
sick car though and definitely impressive at how far ahead of it's time this was as far as custom style it's weird watching how much the enthusiasts and the builders will make desicions for the manufacturers I think manufacturers are returning to that more
What is wrong with Jays face?
Patrick Homza lmao
Definitely an odd guy
I think he's German
tortellini tentacles • 69 years ago i think he’s kinda douchy...lol
Zombie alert. ..

Sorry but I don't like this guy
