The 911 Den
United States
เข้าร่วมเมื่อ 4 ก.ย. 2012
I'm a former high school biology teacher that quit teaching to pursue a life long passion for cars and motorcycles. I find, build, modify, collect, and drive mostly air cooled Porsches but I collect other species as well. I hope you enjoy the ride!
Did I hit a home run or strike out with my barn find 356 Cabriolet?
Geek out with me as I discover the good, the bad, and the ugly on my barn find Porsche 356 SC!

Nothing that a few hundred hours or metal and body work can’t fix.
I hope you show the bottom/chassis being restored
Preserve 😊
Well said! 😄
cool
:)😃😃
Hello, WOW, say I always wonder what people pay for these type of cars. And most refuse to say. So I do ask why. Crickets.
Hello! 25-75K in this type of condition depending on coupe, cab, matching numbers etc, Bottom line, they are worth whatever someone is willing to pay and if you have to bid against the whole world be prepared to pay up!
Never cast disparaging remarks about the secrets of the inner circle. I am now 80 and my copy of that book is Page worn and greasy. This is a kind of Porsche. You’ll have your most fun with good luck on the project.
Its an awesome book! I was referencing the movie Meet the Parents with the " circle of trust" quote. I've already started reading it! ❤
Great you can incorporate your son in the video!!! He will look back at that someday and appreciate the good times!!!😊🇺🇸🙏
Wow good see you back!!! Looks like a great project!!!😊🇺🇸🙏
Many thanks! I appreciate that.
Do you still have the JIG to do the return to Targa? Or at least dimensions? Trying to do the same thing... THANKS!
Great candidate for a sympathetic restoration.
Well said and I concur!
Greetings from Ontario, Canada. Good luck with keeping the car original. Looking forward to seeing it on the road.
Greetings and thank you! I'm looking forward to that first drive too!
So good to see you back working on your cars again! If seen your daunting tornado devastation. What a nice ride you took as along in this well crafted video! Almost feels like you are showing this to us in person!
You sir are too kind! The world needs more Ulis!❤😀
I've found 2 356's. Check out Beth's Garage
That's awesome!
Home effing Run!
Thanks and I will!
Nice find Leonard, back to work (0: enjoy
Thank you sir, and back to work as usual!! ♥
What a great find!
Isn't it?!! Thank you!!♥
Well worth the wait thx for sharing 🎉
Thank you sir!!!
Awesome project. Please do more videos. Orange crush, too
Poor Orange Crush is stuck at the painters but it has finally started to move forward!
Comment for the algorithm.... this could turn out to be very cool. Not sure I've ever seen one with the hardtop installed. The rust sucks but my favorite saying is " it could always be worse. " Good luck.... I'll be watching! Cheers!
I appreciate that and yes....it could be worse!!!
Super sick. First vid of the new year !!! Can’t wait to see more on it !!!
Thank you! I'm excited for that initial test drive!
I wish I could get an old 912 or 911 but that ship got too expensive. I love the videos! Thanks
Those are still out there, keep after it! Thank you!
I like the idea of leaving the patina on top and inside, but restoring the underbody and chassis to a higher standard. It's going to be a very cool ride. 🤙
I think so too! Fix the mechanicals and rust and drive it!
HUZZAH! What a fantastic walkaround on a tremendous car. All the little touches (mirror, steering wheel, multiple keys, etc) make this such a great car with a lot of character! I look forward to seeing it in person!
It is a great little car and thank you for your enthusiasm!
Very nice, I didn’t know Les Nessman(WKRP) also made steering wheels. Interesting.
Very few people knew he made steering wheels! 😂😂🤣
Thanks for posting. I've been waiting for updates on this one. I like your plan moving forward... less is more after shoring up the metal and the mechanicals.. bought my first Porsche last year, a 76 912e, from the original owner. Have a file cabinet full of documentation, among alot of other goodies...that came with it. Looking forward to more content from you. BTW, do you have any Palooza shirts available? Long drive from ATL to the event... on my bucket list...
A one year only 76 912E! Nice find especially with all the documentation. What size shirt do you need?
@The911Den Large please
Gorgeous! I'm happy you are bringing these cars back to life.
Thank you, I think it will be great when completed!
What a beauty! My dream car for sure. Keep it as is it's perfect.
I like it! Thank you!!
What's your verdict? Also, a big thank you to Restoration Design for partnering with me on this project!
Congrats with the 356 ..love to see it back from the dead and moving... Also what happened with Hoovies orange ...have i missed an ep or two?
This gonna be fun!!!
@@joelau3467 Thank you! Orange Crush has been stuck at the painters. Its finally moving forward there though!
@@paulgallagher3122 I agree! What a blast this 356 will be!!
Orange crush update?
I gave a hint in the video.😅
We want more than a hint!!! 😂 Pls!!!
@@joelau3467 I'm a bit sad to say, Orange Crush was stuck for a bit at the painters. The painter himself had some serious health issues but its moving forward now!
Finally, a new “911 Den” video! It’s been too long… 😎

It’s in Eureka Springs Arkansas. Second weekend in November each year. Hope to see you there in 2025!
Another excellent video, Leonard! You are truly an inspiration to us in the air cooled community. Keep up the good work!
Well thank you so much. I appreciate those kind words!
Thx for sharing love it
Thank you!❤
Eureka is great undiscovered treasure, we were there Saturday for the parade. The Porsche crowd is a great group of folks. You can always count on seeing a few guys playing Fangio on the way out of town.
Yes it and that’s normally the case. People excited in their sports cars have a hard time restraining themselves sometimes. 😂❤
Where do you find the roll bar, I’d like to restore a convertible back to a targa, but the inner frame is so hard to find
