That papaya orange colour nails it. Love it!
I can't believe that's a rattle can paint job. Holy hell. Amazing.
Yes it's done very very sharp. And with the cans shaking longer than you should does help. And the weather there helps with transitions. If it were 24/7 hot days. That spray will be halfway dry as soon as it hits the metal. So yeah
Definitely a clean job.
Nice video Trevor, and great little car. Thanks for being humble and real, and not trying to pretend that you know all about it before Chris has even had a chance to tell you about it. Very refreshing! 👌👏👊
Thank you for this video. This is your subscriber on the West Coast, Los Angeles, California United States. I like this car. This is crazy over here in United States. A lot of the purest will probably go crazy even if it’s a replica or the real thing, but there is also a large group of us that love Porsches. Well, thank you for this video. Your subscriber over here in the United States. Cannot wait for your next video.🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽
I had the privilege seeing this car in flesh and it is absolutely beautiful ❤ great video 🎉
Beautiful build!
Perfect driving enjoyment right there.
Great car!! So fun!!
Loving this channel keep up the great content
Beautiful car and beautiful camera work
Dream car. Right spec, right colour
Beautiful build. Mine is a JPS coupe and it's always a hit wherever I go..
MyPorsche knowledge is fairly wide but I had no idea this was a replica. I think it looks great!
I'm loving the look of this car (especially as I have 68 Beetle custom in this matt warm yellow colour!). Nice work Chris.
964 Turbo owner here & I'm officially jealous ... beautiful build .
Brilliant episode, really nicely shot. Obviously the car was great. Keep up the great work Trevor.
Thank you
70k? Thats crazy. I will have 20k into my real 53’ coupe when I am done. Love the car though! Good job!
Agree! 70k pounds! is absurd. Someone got ripped off.
amazing, congrats
Incredible car.
Although it's based on a 59, the tailights look to be from an original German 1957's. I had a real steel 57 in High School in 1974. The prevoius owner put a S-90 motor in int, (1600/103 hp; Solex P11-4 and a Speedster Transmission, (Lower gears-BBAB). Of course I am a purest, but I will only comment on the exhaust,.I like the look but is sounds like a VW, try a German Exhaust; I put a stock one on mine and it performed and sounded like a Porsche, it had a Truhaft quiet power one which was popular at the time). If you got the money the European Sport exhaust would probably perform and sound better.
you're right, it sounds terrible. Definitely not a Porsche sounding car...
Looks amazing to be fair
Cool!
There is a shop, I think in New Zealand, that created a Ferrari 250 gto replica, with body panel jigs and the ability to produce more. The intent was to allow someone that owned a 250 gto, the ability to drive one, without touching the one that they own. Ferrari sued in international court and apparently won, stopping him from making anymore. Ferrari says they own the 250 gto "likeness", that the appearance is iconic, and that copying it is a violation of their rights. I believe this was also done by the by the creator of the "Elanor" mustang. I think it is ridiculos and I would like to see more of these replicas.
That's crazy.
When you think about how much a person has such a passion for a car as to make a replica. You got to respect that.
I wish I had so much money that I could pay someone to build me a custom car.
You would miss the enjoyment of building it
Nice video and car!
I love your approach to this channel.
I appreciate that!
Really nice replica, but 70k? There's a completely (bare metal) restored 356 Coupe currently for sale on Pistonheads for £89,000. Not sure I'd have grafted a sunroof into a motorsport-themed 356 but if the owner's happy that's all that matters.
@chadderton No to the sunroof as well! Very nice outcome for a replica project. Now, if the exhaust note could be modified to sound a lot less like a VW, it would greatly improve the overall experience! Couldn't help but noticing the owner's Gulf Racing "trainers"!
Beautiful ❤ only thing id have done differently is to have painted it silver.
Nice 😊😊
Wow nice car
Take it for a drive man!!!!!!
Minter 👌
Nice. Enjoyed that. Love the 356
Speedster Clinic in the Uk.
Bro where he get those racing shoes
What I'd like to know is what transmission do you have in it (ratios and stuff) and how does it drive? I've owned seven 356's and a 914-6 that I raced for a few years. There is nothing that drives like a late 356 and the 912. The sense of ownership of the driving experience is like nothing else and I've driven many cars. Have you preserved that experience in this build?
A bit of a pompous question, wouldn't you say?
Is there a dent in the front above the license plate @ 2:05 or am I seeing things?? Still a beautiful car, I just had to ask
looks cool but 70k for a kit car is mental. there's a lot of options in that ball park that will increase in value and coolness
Strange how carbuzz say that this build will drive purist mad. Click bait I guess. Beautiful build
Holdsworth bicycle color ?
❤Kudo to whoever built it BUT why do VW engines have to sound like asthmatic Massey Fergusons? Surely they can engineer the exhaust better. It sounded like it had burnt out valves.
Great video, lovely car! Who was the body supplied by?
Speedster clinic supplied the body. Birmingham based. Speak to Gary.
1965 was the last year for the 356, wasn’t it?
Yes, except they made a few in ‘66 only for the German Police. Seinfeld has one, and featured it on one of the episodes of “Comedians in Cars getting Coffee”.
E need a drive trev!
It was interesting when you asked what a replica was.
I was more referring to what the differences are with a "Outlaw replica". Not that I knew much about the original lol 😆
I've spoken to an owner of an original so I may to a follow up video.
I'd say that your Porsche knowledge hasn't gone up at all since this isn't actually a Porsche, however it is an exceptionally cool car which I would love to own as well! I wasn't aware that you could buy replica coupe bodies, all that I have ever seen over the years have been fibreglass convertible/Speedster bodies. Now where can I find a cheap Beetle chassis around here? 🤔😎
I think someone is doing boxster kits as well
Speedster clinic
I have a sense that a tiny 1950s car has a decent turning radius. But when you slam it and triple the tire width you lose that by your own hand.
70K? Love to see the breakdown on that? 20K tops for an engine and rattle-can paint, where did the rest go?
The car was in the hands of another mechanic who ripped the owner off to say the least before it was handed to my dad who had to strip it back and rebuild the whole car due to poor craftsmanship . That’s where a lot of the money was lost
Thank you for your answer, that would certainly explain it.
@@rozinant1237 no worries , merry Christmas !
Your dad does nice work! Merry Xmas to you and yours!
Why didn't they make a full-sized one?
How did he manage to register it as 1973 Porsche 356 if it's based on a Beetle...? 🤔
When you build a reproduction you register using a builder's registration process. they usually ask what year chassis and what the car represents. In this case it's a '73 chassis and it represents a Porsche 356.
So that’s not an actual “replica” unless he means he replicated the Emory “look”. You have to love when rich guys go on TH-cam with their youthful leather jackets and take all the credit for the builds they funded but did not actually build.
Only his shoes don’t match 😅
70k on a 356 rep? Jesus, that would have bought a lovely 997.2
...and that would have bought 2 new Honda Civics. What's your point? He obviously didn't want a lovely 997.2. He wanted a baller 356 Outlaw replica.
What make this an outlaw? "Loads of little things 😂 Im sorry its a beautiful car but almost none of that is a 356. The builder did an absolutely fantastic job on this replica and im sure theres a few 356 bits on it. Honestly i love it but call a spade a Spade. Ive driven one of these and the fibreglass bodys alway detract from the drive because of how light it is. One of the most beautiful dhapes and my respect to the builder. 💯
always make's me laugh when someone make's a kitcar and stick's badge's of the real car on it,
Does it make you laugh when someone puts Cobra badges on a Cobra replica? How about a continuation Cobra? Or a fiberglassed body paneled Ford coupe? or truck? Or any other of the other numerous cars built with reproduction panels? It's his car he can dow what he wants. I was involved with Porsche replicas for more than 10 years and I never met one person who tried to pass of their reproduction as a real one.
Ummmm 6 figures for a real one or 6 figures for a fake one???????? The car market has lost its mind, it's a shame that the youth will never be able to enjoy the antiques
Yes, the car market has lost its mind. When I was young these 356s were basically junk cars that may have went for $1500 max. The Camaro I bought for 1700 is now $50,000. Yep, the car market has lost its mind.
@@bradjacobs1844 i must be older than you when I was young you couldn't give away a 356, nobody wanted them lol
No the price tag isn’t accurate in terms of how much it would actually cost to build the car . The owner is factoring in the fact that before it was handed to my dad , it was in the hands of another mechanic who ripped the owner off and built the car poorly . Therefore he had spent a lot of money on the car already before it was passed to my dad who then had to strip it all back and rebuild it properly hence the mighty cost of the build . Also factoring in the original Porsche parts which are quite expensive too .
@@Thepanicyearspodcast the price has nothing to do with your father or the previous owner, it's the market itself that's the problem
@@michaelboisselle8590 well you’d be a fool to expect things to stay the same price as 50 years ago 😂the market rises with influence
So it's a beetle chassis with a beetle engine 😭
70k is a lot for a fake Porsche looks the business tho 👍🇬🇧💎
Very expensive beetle. I do like it but not at 70k

@@Thepanicyearspodcast Merry Christmas Megan i also like Porsche 🎄
@@sandyshine6690 merry Christmas to you too !
It's a Volkswagen , value ?
Outlaw VW.
Interviewer doesn’t seem to know much about cars…seems disrespectful :(
Neat car but a little cheeky that you take half the video to fully explain this is a fiberglass replica body on a VW pan. Nothing wrong with it being a nice replica, but being a little less than forthcoming about the fact that it is in fact "not at all a 356" and that the body, chassis, engine, gearbox, and suspension are NOT Porsche parts will put off some folks when you don't make that clear.
This video was completely spontaneous. I had no intention on filming this car on the day. I was in fact filming a yellow 997. When I finished on the 997 Chris asked if I wanted to do a feature on his car. I quickly set up. Had no script or no clue what to ask. We just freestyled it. I knew nothing about the 356 until that day.
While it's a cool project, it bugs me when lots of money and effort are spent on silly things, likely from lack of research. A huge example is this little triangle doors just under the quarter windows. Those were put on the 550A because the rear shell doesn't flip up to access the engine, so you can pop the little triangle doors open and do some quick work on the carbs or engine at the the track with it being a mid-engine. Putting those on a rear engine 356 is just dumb, as it's a trap door to nowhere?
It allows access to the carburetors. The engine bay is seriously tight because of how far outward the carbs are set. You can't access the idle jets. He added the carb doors so he could more easily access the idle jets. Emory puts them on a lot of his cars and this car is built to emulate an Emory outlaw. It bugs me when people with no knowledge about something come on a social media website to complain about things they of which they have no knowledge.
@@robertm1692, ummm, WHAT??? The carbs are completely accessible. That's absolutely ridiculous. In a 550A, and some models like the RSK, absolutely because they're MID-ENGINE! Please explain how you reach the carbs that are 2 feet towards the rear from that trap door?
I had a replica. And the carb jets on a set of Webbers, while accessible, are very difficult to get to since the idle jets are on the outside edge of the carburetor. They make an intake that allows you to turn them 180* so the idle jet is on the inside but those are not very popular. And the whole point of this car was to emulate a very particular Rod Emory Special. And on that build, and numerous other builds, Rod has put those carburetor doors on his cars. Are you saying Rod Emory is dumb? I'm sure he knows more about building and modifying 356's than just about anyone left on the planet. When you put a Flat 6, even if it has had two cylinders removed, in the engine bay of a 356 it takes up a lot of space.
The engine has a miss.
Sounded like a plugged idle jet to me
Six figures. Might as well have bought a real one? Seems like much more of the VW pan was used than just the center tube. Seems like whole platform was used including suspension unless it was changed after the picture. Why source real 356 parts of the car is fake? I would have saved my money and just used fake parts. Not a big fan of fake Porsches. The only fiberglass kit car I like is the Meyers Manx. It’s not a replica it’s an OG design but still uses a VW pan and even that has to be shortened to fit. A young fellow in the states has bought the company and is now reproducing them again. Chip Foose built two for SEMA this year.
Here is a potentially cool video about building a car. Oops. That’s not right. It is a video about two random guys standing in front of a car. Show the work.
70k pounds? For that? Ripped off... Sorry- but stick to your original plan, paint it
6 figures for a replica...come on! Completely ridiculous even with a 2.3 L Type 1 engine... 🤣 Body kit around £ 8,000, engine £ 10,000 max., gearbox £ 2000 concerning the most important expenses...
......rusty doorhinges.......after so much effort.....
Why? Given all the time and money and privilege and opportunity one choses to make a Hitler thing that at it's core is just a sporty version of a shitty beetle. WTF?
Had to quit watching after a few minutes because of owner having too many uhmm s
I didn’t even notice. Lovely car!
