    Financials don’t matter, it’s the journey and the satisfaction you take from doing it yourself. Money can’t buy that! Love the videos thanks for sharing

    Hard to hear commentary as background music over it

      Yes, sorry about that, i hate the sound of my voice when i'm doing voiceovers! Thanks for watching, the other videos are clearer i think.

    Your right that’s a lot of money to have in a cab, but if your keeping it then who cares like you say! Been a great series so far and you’ve tackled loads of stuff that most would just put in with an independent. Well done 👍

    Just dropped onto this series, looks a great find, the car is going to be amazing!
    Just a tiny thing though, the music was overpowering your voice when you were talking but I'm sure you know that.
    All the best with this great project I'll be following along 👍🏻

      Yes, sorry about that, i dislike the sound of my voice on voiceovers, sounds so boring so I'm trying to compensate LOL. Thanks for watching and most of the other videos are much clearer so have a watch.

    This is a great generation of 911. Looks like you’ve got a really nice example. Thanks for sharing the journey. Drive it and I know you will enjoy it. 👍

    Yeah Shane “who cares” it’s only money……..if it brings you happiness & enjoyment for many years to come! Plus the value of your classic going forward will take care of that.

    Love it. Looking forward to seeing the interior finished. How will you deal with the black door handle? Can it be painted?

    • @blandsbarn
      @blandsbarn  11 месяцев назад

      I have some aluminium vertsions to try, they have a nicer feel than the originals and may look nice, failing that it may have to be painted. Thanks for watching

    Great video, and a fantastic car. Do you know the history of the car? Reason I ask is it looks a lot like the one I owned in the 80's, even the alarm in the engine bay on the right is the same.

    • @blandsbarn
      @blandsbarn  11 месяцев назад +1

      Hi Stuart, I’ve had a look at the history that I have, it started life in Farnham and then to Leamington in 97. There isn’t a Stuart on the papers. Thanks for watching

    Did you put protection underseal on tank

    • @blandsbarn
      @blandsbarn  11 месяцев назад

      Not as yet, I'm torn on this as often extra layors can course more issues, what would you recommend? Thanks

    I’m the same with my 928, not as major,but it can run away with $$ when you add it all up
    Electrical is a problem with German cars and is worse in the new cars
    They are not designed to last sadly,even the engines?
    But like your 911 they are a joy to drive👍

      Thanks for watching more episodes, one step at a time as they say.

      @@blandsbarn Your welcome and today I removed the covers and gave a good polish etc
      It’s amazing the condition of the 928,and even the seats etc are still mint✅
      That German leather is tough stuff for sure
      Like your car,it will be a treat to drive it again (after 15yr) hiatus👍🥳

    Did you even play this back before uploading? The ‘music’ is ridiculous.

      Tes i was trying to make it sound more exciting rather than just my dull voice! Your not the first to comment, point taken so future videos dont have the music. Thanks for watching

    Bianca interni blu, bellissima combinazione per una 911 Cabrio
    Qualunque cifra tu abbia speso, sono soldi spesi bene 👏
    P.S. se posso: togli l'alettone posteriore che sulla cabrio non sta bene

      Thanks for watching and I'm also unsure of the rear wing, i may remove it to see how it looks.
