    I don’t usually go for brown but that is an absolutely beautiful car. This vid is an ode to those of us who love mechanical things. Cars, watches, even pens. Well done. You’re not alone sir.

      I also love mechanical stuff though still a digital guy.I suppose i am more mechanical than you think because i have a pen you crank up to start before writing with it, i guess you dont have one.

    Back in the day, I had a friend who owned a brown 77 targa. We would cruise around town and make that 911 sing. He's passed on now but I managed to buy a 3.2 gaurds red coupe 12 years ago and I wish he were here to see it. These air cooled cars are something special and after owning one you are never quite the same!

    The 1979 911sc has the big valves like the uro model. Some say it's faster than a 3.2 Carrera. What a great car.

    I get it, my mom took me to a Porsche dealership in 1979. She bought a gaurds red 928. I was hooked, my first car in 1980 was a 914 I currently have #26 a 1997 993 it's 2022 I'm still hooked.

    I have a 79 911 Porsche, do you know why when I try starting it, its just cranking with a lot of white smoke coming out? I’m pretty sure I need to clean the spark plugs out but I was wondering what you think? New starter, new battery, new spark plugs, 1 year old gas and oil. Any thoughts?
