Time To Scrap The Porsche? Removing The Rear Quarter From The Classic Porsche 911 Restoration Pt4

- Preventative maintanance....... This is what this build was... Now look whats happened! Ive had to remove the entire rear quarter from this 1984 classic Porsche 911. We just keep finding more and more rust. On the sills, the tub, the inner wheel arches and the kidney bowls.
We stripped the remaining of the underseal and called in The Ice Blasters to give this a once over. The underside is looking fresh!

Thanks for watching. And with no surprise, in the next video there is more rust... See you then! - ยานยนต์และพาหนะ
Great video and a timely reminder of what you could be in for when you buy a classic car. We still love them though.
0:11 oh yes. I have had this face/ look so many times through my rust repairs. Keep it up Ryan.
This PVC undercoating was widely in use with german car manufacturers from the 70ies on. It is great for sure in matter of protecting against stones an other hard stuff being thrown at the body. Bus as soon as it gets porous or cracky, things get terribly wrong as moisture and salty water gets trapped behind and rust is growing in secret, only showing when it is far too late and steel has left the chat.... Most of your projects show this issue in various states... But this keeps your business alive and growing ;-) And we have nice videos showing your great talent in getting all this nastiness perfectly sound again!
I've been seeing it a lot too.
Now you can get a far better version of the anti gravel stuff on a rattle spray cans from cheapo places like Princess Auto/Harbor Freight/Biltema, and probably also the UK equivalent.
I've been testing it (and other stuff) on deliberate botch jobs (personal cars) to see how it works.
Compared to the old PVC stuff it scales off when the steel underneath starts rusting, just enough you can see it, rather than staying on to hide what's going on.
A nice Light Restoration!
Old underseal often gets a bad rap, but it's done a job on protecting the majority of metal on that 40 year old car.
He he. At 0:12. Wolverine wipes. 😉
I presume that you keep the owner informed of the problems that you uncover and confirm that he or she is prepared to meet the cost of repairs before you undertake them. Best wishes.
Must do. You might think you need a pair of front wings yet, the invoice shows 100 hours refurbishing the body alone😮
Make sure you take a look under the rear seats too. The window seals go and water gathers in them :)
If you wanna remove nasty grease on your car, who you gonna call? Ice Blasters!
I can't believe they work in an uninsulated workshop with no heating, in Yorkshire, got to work hard to keep warm :p
Thanks for a great video 🎉🎉
Great work at usual, it is so refreshing to see you working with PPE...all the young people now have a role model. In fact everyone that works in works shops will take notice...I sold my 1980 911sc, just wondering if it was like this undeath?.. makes me thing twice before buying another old 911.
In da bin!!!
Another car that will never leave the workshop ,please please just finish at least one car 😂😂
The e30 baur is complete. Auto Alex's e30 is complete. Red e24 complete. Opel manta complete. M3 evo sport 3 is complete (I have 6 videos to edit) and this porsche is also almost complete. I'm well ahead on it
Weren't these 911's zinc coated to prevent rust in case of undersea failing? Surely stripping sealer with the SCT removes this coating while wire brush will keep some.
How will you be properly coating bare steel back to factory level to keep future rust out?
But there is rust? Im sure the will coat it better than factory....
I thought Porsche had introduced zinc galvanisation of the whole, unpainted body by then, but I guess I’m just wrong about that.
By the time of the 966 generation (my own car) they’re pretty much sound. Not a spec of rust on my 2004 car, thankfully.
Could you recommend what you use as a replacement for this rubber underseal coating as I have removed it from an r107 and yes there was huge amount of rust…
It looks a bit cold there what happened to it being summer time
I know I'm old, but that is the best Lon Cheney impression ive ever seen.
😎👍
Misery and desolation are your stock in trade.
The SCT is way too heavy to be using above your head. Also, get the wire drum. It is much better for stripping under seal and is also better for uneven surfaces.
It's worth noting that many guys with G-Bodied 911s in the UK tend to fit after-market fender liners exactly because of the sort of problems this episode has exposed. Well worth the investment I'd say!
How have you got steam coming out your mouth when you are talking? it's the middle of summer😂
It's old footage. You can see AutoAlex's E30 touring in the back in a state of disrepair and that's been done for a good couple of months now
How much you charge labour per hour?
I understand wanting to keep it together as much as possible (not dismantling unless absolutely necessary) however in order to do a full restore surely it would be beneficial just to strip to bare shell and fo from there?
Yeah, stripping it all initially is a time investment but so is having to stop dismantle further and then start repairs again?
Love the videos just trying to understand your thinking man. ❤
new projects are good to see but, what is with the 914 and desaster datsun are any updates coming.
The front "repair" is no repair I think, there is a damper installed for the front bumper, so it is a US importes car. I think this was installed due to us regulations and maybe it was not done by porsche but anywhere else 🤷
Anyhows, sorry to use this video for this question but what about Matt`s BMW? Did I miss Something? Will you finally assemble it again?
I bet your bones are strong from eating all that iron oxide 😂
There's no hiding from the "Rust Detective"...!
It's interesting that my SC had rust in many of the same places as this Carrera. Overall, the underseal does a pretty good job of protecting the car and it's generally not necessary to remove all of it. But there are a few known trouble spots as you've pointed out (namely the kidney bowls, around the oil tank and strut towers, etc.) The dry ice cleaner did a great job too and saved you a lot of time. Love your work chaps!
Oh noooo!!!where datsun!?!??
is that wolverine at 00:10?
😆
It's crazy that Porsche didn't put arch liners on these cars.
Great video,enjoyed very much so.even with the rust,back inner panels are the only things I see really rusted on the left rear.for you,easy fix,no problem.just keep saying I love my job,I love my job.yea.sure.just keep doing your thing and carry on.be safe.😎😎😎👍👍👍
The disaster Datsun had more rust in just the tail light panel than that Porsche has in its entirety lol.
Certainly disappointing but if anyone can fix it, it’s YCR! It’ll be brought back better than new.
That kind of underseal just turns into cobwebs. Horrible
I can't stand porsche, but you and the work are excellent as always. Keep up the good work 😁
Keep er lit.
For something that looks so good, be so bad.😂👍
👍🏻
Hi, great vid again, has the berlinetta made another appearance 👍👍👍
Wow, those 911's hide their rust very well. Never knew they don't have rear inner arches.
The body was opened up for exploratory surgery, which revealed cancer everywhere, a grim diagnosis.
You're doing a great job, fantastic! But I always wonder when I see how much you're sanding the paint; wouldn't it make sense to completely strip the bodies? For example, with pyrolysis and subsequent dip stripping, the bodies would be like new from the factory and everything would be visible. Or is that just too expensive?
Scrap it best place for it 😂😂😂
Since the rust goes up inside the interior panels, it might be more expedient to get a cut off from a donor/junked 911. At some point it must be faster and reduce the cost than fabbing the parts.
Btw, excellent work!
Use your laser to remove paint and rust.
well you ripped off all that loverly underseal and revealed very little rot. Was it really necessary to remove all that perfectly good preotection for a little rust ?
You men that underseal that I was scraping off with a screwdriver? There was lots of loose underseal that has rust behind it. Believe it or not. The tool I used to remove the underseal also polished removed the rust and polished the metal, hence why you couldnt see the smaller bits of rust on camera
That’s a funny shaped e24!
Putting all together again will be a challenge too 😅
how cold was it
Filmed in January, very cold!! 😅
Working on the cold?
strange as this is warmest time of year in UK
@@as3cs3old footage. AutoAlex E30 touring in the back which has been completed for a couple months now
@@Afraz_9n3 I had no idea they posted older footage. Thought the updates were all brand-new
@@as3cs3 I think it may have been just too many to edit at the same time cos of all the ongoing projects but on the first episode of this series they said in the comments it's old footage. And in these comments he said it was filmed in January
How long before this fast maintenance job become a full restoration? 😂👏👍💸
What about Matt Armstrong BMW???
Shoved to the back of the workshop, like every car they work on , would not like to have to answer the phone from irate customers asking when there car will be finished 😂
Würde mich auch interessieren 😮
my dream car is a 911. I will never get one as my dream may turn into a nightmare
15:25 where did your hair go?
He had it ice-blasted.
Bostin.
And this is why it costs to do the job correctly. And repairing other peoples garbage repairs makes it more difficult
