Good luck bro! I suggest painting the entire garage white, and then paint the lower 2' a darker grey. Can use that as accent everywhere else. Excited to see what you come up with! Also, I picked up 8' LEDs for 13 each on eBay, and they're awesome!
Enjoy a break from producing content for a while. It's super demanding and you produce a lot. Your videos are always great content. I'm currently enjoying rewatching the 912 engine rebuild series as I prepare for my own engine build on my 356. Take your time and get the garage and tools sorted the way you want them. It's so important to have a well organized space and tools that work well. Good luck and look forward to seeing the updates in a month or two!
Hey man, I know that feeling. I've just had to do the same in my shop. So good luck with your renovations, and I'll see you in your next video. ✌️ Peace from Melbourne Australia.
That sounds like a good plan, Tom. I reached a similar point, years back, when I had three formula Fords all torn down at once for restoration. As soon as they went away, I renovated the shop and made it sanitary clean. Then I put it back together the way I wanted it to be. Good luck, don't get discouraged when it seems like nothings getting done, and I'll look forward to seeing your new videos......
Understandable Tom. I'm going through major renovations at my place too right now, so you have my sympathies. You've got one of the best Porsche channels on YT, so we'll be waiting for you when you're ready to return!
Great update, If you feel like creating a condensed garage time work area overhaul without going into too much detail you could have as the return video I'm sure a bunch of us would watch - I know how boring painting walls might be with the occasionally tightening of your pipe work 😂 Good luck to sorting it all out, see you soon 👍
Likewise, I have no shortage of projects by me either. Good luck on the fixes. Interesting you mentioned Santa Ana. Once upon a time many years ago, I worked at the Midas Muffler in Santa Ana. Met my ex-wife (she was a cashier) at the Carl's Jr next door. Now, we both reside in Middle Tennessee but not in the same city, Lol.
May I recommend to keep the YT algorithm from decimating your gains that you put up slightly modified repeat episodes with your “breaking for remodel” message at the beginning and end of each repeat episode. Maybe include some before and after shots of sections of your remodel. Also, even if you don’t use it, at least collect some Timelapse of key sections of your rebuild and tease us with some stills, (so as to cut editing time to an absolute minimum), or not and we’ll see you when you are ready. Cheers!
This is a great idea and I have a list of videos that I want to consolidate into one tidy video. I've done this for the 356 trans rebuild and my roll bar series too. The problem is video editing and producing takes a huge amount of time. I'm guessing the algorithm should be ok because YT only sends my videos to the same Porsche people, It's a very small group of people that do what I do on here.
@@GarageTimeAutoResto as the others have said, we look forward to your return. Also, please do capture some before and after pictures of not video, even if you don’t edit it into a video, for later release & reference. It will be cool to look back on in the future.
I'll miss you you're the best but look forward to seeing you in a couple of months. In the meantime do you have a website where you sell the parts we have a 356C and a 95 911
Sounds like a plan to come back stronger! I’ve been following the Mac build, beautiful car! Maybe I missed it but did you swap out the rear torsion bars to a larger size when you installed the six cylinder engine?
Thanks, I'm still using the stock rear torsion bars that came with the car. This car is a 911S and I think the 912 came with the same torsion bar size. Don't quote me on that. Next upgrade will be rear coil overs instead of new bars
Well done Tom, I’m sure the majority of your die hard followers have workshops far more cluttered and less organised than yours it’s all just a part of the classic car hobby. The idea of rehashing some of your earlier content sounds great, it will probably be the first time viewed for many of the newer followers too.
Tom: You have done a great job for the entire 6 years. Good luck with the renovation.
Good luck bro! I suggest painting the entire garage white, and then paint the lower 2' a darker grey. Can use that as accent everywhere else. Excited to see what you come up with! Also, I picked up 8' LEDs for 13 each on eBay, and they're awesome!
Alright, will look forward to the new tubes!
I did the same thing to turn my garage into a studio. It makes a huge difference.
Sounds great Tom!
Can’t wait to to see your new setup!
Good Luck on the Renovation and Maintenance. We’ll be here when you get back!
Good for you, way to keep your focus on the bigger goals. We'll be here when you "get back'. Cheers!
No problem, worth the wait 👍
See you in a couple months Tom! Have fun, be safe.
just started watching your channel as I'm starting to reassemble a '68. Glad you'll be returning, your content touches on things other's don't.

Thank you! And thanks for going back to watch older videos while I'm dark😀
Completely understand and wish you luck on the upgrades! Look fwd to seeing you back…Cheers! 👍👍
Hey man,
I know that feeling. I've just had to do the same in my shop.
So good luck with your renovations, and I'll see you in your next video.
✌️ Peace from Melbourne Australia.
Good luck with the renovation and repairs. It is amazing what you have accomplished in that garage. 👍
Thank you! It's been a great ride, but there's so much content left to come.

Thank you. I think everyone will benefit from a little break. I'll be more organized and the videos will be less distracting 😀
Good luck with your garage project.
Great update. Looking forward to the new garage space on the other side. Glad the Zoom's are continuing.
Looking forward to it!
Understandable Tom. I'm going through major renovations at my place too right now, so you have my sympathies. You've got one of the best Porsche channels on YT, so we'll be waiting for you when you're ready to return!
Good luck on the garage work!
Sometimes you just need to take a break to get your house in order...good luck Tom, hope you can get through it in the next few months. Cheers!
Great content look forward to your return!

Will do a few progress shots here and there, but there's a lot to do. Let's hope it goes fast😜
Likewise, I have no shortage of projects by me either. Good luck on the fixes.

Nice Santa Ana is full of great car shops and Mexican food!
All the best and looking forward to seeing you on the other side
Tom you are very professional and a great example to those that are trying to learn .
Please make some vids also on the renovation.
Love to see how you improve your current setup!!
No tools working, No work done, No videos produced. Take your time and sort out your shop, we will be waiting to see the result.
TBH this gives me a couple months to finally get caught up on all the videos I haven't had time to get to yet!
That's perfect, I appreciate it.
can't wait to see the new garage!!

It'll be good for you to clear your head space and come back feeling fresh. We're not going anywhere. See you soon :)
