  • In this video I start a new job.... It's a 1979 Porsche 911 with a 3.8 RS engine in it running over 300bhp!! for Dream Car Giveaways!
    The car is pretty mint anyways so I'm just doing some little tidy up jobs, in this video I tackle the dreaded wiring AGAIN! It gets an OCD touch of goodness too! What are your thoughts on this classic car? I just can't wait for the road test now!

    Reminds me of a mk 2 RS2000 I got in 80s the wiring was a nightmare it was put together with 26 scotch locks on the radio and map light all with 6 inch pieces of wire.

    What can I say, fantastic. Love the way you casually with a degree of humbleness transformed the car. She looks really happy might I add. If you were near where I live I’d bring mine to you. Well done sir 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾❤️

    Someone was going for a world record, with number of connectors in one wire run there. 🤣 That’s a smart looking old 911 and sympathetically updated as well.

    nice....
    when my sister was at school, her female, cigar smoking teacher had a rough looking filthy one, never got cleaned, to try to make it less desirable. she also had a shipyard sized chain around the steering wheel to the seat. the little buggers only nicked a hacksaw from the metalwork rooms, + sawed through the spokes. it spent the afternoon on the rev-limiter, blasting around the playing fields, filled with 15yo kids, steering knight-rider style by the spokes, only caught when the engine seized due to all the mud packed around it
    PS it re-started next day...

    I think you might find that it's lower on the passenger side to allow for driver weight. It's common on corner weighted setups etc. Just an idea. Nice video as always non the less.
