    I love watching your journey with the 3.2. Mine was barnfind as well from my friends dad who had a stroke in 2002 and the car sat for 20 years. I found the resurrection to be quite rewarding like I'm sure you did. Mine had 3 broken head studs so I had to start with an engine pull and full rebuild, which I did myself. Watching your video brings back a few some memories. Playing with the seats, getting the crank sensors backwards, lots of dirt and grime, wheel bearings. I think my costs were around $30K in parts for me to DIY down to the suspension. But for me I'm keeping the car and intend to enjoy it, rack up the miles, and then rebuild it again. I can't say I can do that with new cars given the complexity.

      Wow, what a story. I need to get out on a road trip soon to remind me why i do this, probably had a few to many hours repairing than driving this year but now summer is here i can get out on the road.

    Love watching your videos on the 911. Could have bought one in 1998 for £29950. Absolutel minter one owner from new, belong to an accountant, full service history in guards red with cream leather interior with red piping. Decided not to bother. My biggest mistake ever!

      Yes, always easy to say in hindsight though! Thanks watching

    Although you could buy a nice coupe for 50k you’ve got a great deal of experience getting the car to where it is. Improved it no end. If resale value isn’t important and you are keeping the car then it makes no difference what it’s worth. Thanks for sharing.
