Franny your mixture of child like wonder with adult maturity and responsibility make your videos a joy to watch. You are an incredible mentor for those who watch your videos and no doubt for those that you are working with in person.
Hi John, that has to be one of the nicest comments I've received. Thank you so much!
Watched all 10 episodes nonstop. As a retired VW guild craftsman it did my heart good to see a job done where “good enough “ is not good enough! Well done!
Gosh! Thanks so much!!
I love that you do all this wearing pearls. You are truly one of a kind.
Franny, that level of detailing would send me down the OCD rabbit hole, not to mention the cost of all the "high end" products you use. But, if I had a car like that....I would gladly drain a couple days of anxiety working the shiny bits to perfection, it looks fabulous, excellent work!
I probably did go a little bit off the deep end... Just trying to take it from a 20' car to a 5' car :)
Beyond being a top notch mechanic/engineer... she also is a pretty good detailer.
Your side view mirror IS adjustable. Loosen the Phillips screw. Have a helper adjust while you sit in driver seat. Tighten Phillips. Adjusted for life.
I've always loved the look and idea of the 550. Some real work to get this one sorted.
I see a Honda Passport/Super Cub in the background! Shades of high school in the '80s!!! I had a yellow one and later a blue one like yours. What a great bike and I think the most popular motorcycle ever made, I think.
We had a yellow one too. We sold it. Maybe someday we will get another.
Franny, I really enjoy your videos. Your enthusiasm is evident every time I watch a video. Best of all, the content is calming and fun and uplifting. Thanks for sharing
Thanks so much!
I haven't detailed a car like that in YEARS. Such hard work!! When I did, I also took out tail lights and cleaned inside the lenses. Insane. The Beck owner should consider himself/herself lucky to have this attention to detail. Pun intended :D
BECK 550 SPYDER, ultimate summer drive! :)
Heidi has a new nickname: Kato! The cap did it.
Wow , I love valeting my cars and can see you are super duper thorough which I love. The only thing I’d suggest is I always put on knee pads as over time it will pay dividends , once you get into your 40’s you’ll thank me 😂🙏
Excellent filming , editing and very informative, well done looks as good as it will ever be
Nice job Franny!
Those coyotes were close by, wow! They are a real pain in my area, they come in and well, family pets disappear over night if they're outdoors... As for the Speedster, I think you've increased the value of that particular car by at least 50%!
The have been a few dogs and cats gone missing in the night... Mostly they munch on prairie dogs and rabbits. I've seen them early in the morning... They are all business!
In episode#10, The Itsy Bitsy Spyder gets a bath :)

Cannot wait to get my own 550!
Yes Fanny rocks!!! Franny just finished watching and coming up to speed on the unloved Beck 550. Kudos to you on all mechical tasks troubleshooting and just pure wisdom and insight you shared. This series was so enjoyable to watch and the 550 such a mechanical marvel. You totally out did it, well done. Great attention to detail. Don't know the history of little gem but it seems like it wasn't maintained very well. She looks and runs awesome now. You made me feel bad about my 997, so looks like I have some detailing to do in the next few days. Sharing these vlogs with the car guys...
Thanks!
Muchas Felicidades Por Su Canal. ..

Gracias!
Another great video - thank you. I use other products than Adams but I think Adams has very good stuff. Just a personal thing. LOL. Glad you caught the fact that tires were on wrong side and need to be switched. I would just add for those watching the video you would not normally rotate radials from side to side (only front to back, back to front) but Franny's point is these tires are simply on the wrong side due to the directional nature of the tires and the tires need to be changed from side to side to correct that error. Well done!
Of course if the tires are directional and you have a different size tire on the front versus the rear, you can't rotate the tires at all.
Enjoyed every minute.
So nice to see you both =)
Happy Holidays to you as well!
Thanks for the updates!
Great tips, Franny! Going out to buff my Porsche in my garage now!
Another great video, suspense killing me! 550 needs a badge or two on the engine grills, just to add that touch! Looking forward to the next one! Nice work!
Another fantastic video!
Good stuff! I’m really enjoying the videos
If you use isopropanol you should only use one from glass bottle. In pastic bottle it tends dilute some carbohydrates or polymers into it. I dont know how important it is but I once made the error and cleaned a camera sensor with isopropanol from plastic bottle - I will never do it again. I only use pharmacy bottled isopropanol now for that kinda work. I know the Ammo guy does not want to use the isopropanol for the same reason.
thank you Franny and Heidi for looking and vlogging this 550 looking forward to your next job/car from the UK
What a brilliant series! I own a Speedster replica and got tons of ideas from it!
I was going to refer you to the Speedster Vlogs and then I saw the replica. Yes, Franny does an amazing job and hopefully is can help you with your replica speedster.
Franny, REALLY loved the Beck 550 series, and, have already recommended it to friends. Like others, I fear the OCD rabbit hole, appreciate the recommendations for products & agree- it looks (and now runs!) awesome. Not a bathtub Porsche lover (slightly before my time), but- love the Ferrari & 996 & 993- so, I'll need to set aside time for those as well! Please, keep it up, it keeps the fire burning, and, will be great for long Winter nights...Oh, and- I'll subscribe too- soooo, worth it! Dave P.S. Great Channel- had no idea til it was recommended by YT.
Thanks David! I bet Eva could warm your heart with one drive... She is that good :)
The Spyder looks bloody brilliant. Great detailing.
I love your hard work and attention to detail on this. The owner of this car is some kind of lucky to have you looking it over!
Have you’ve considered picking up a Banjo style steering wheel it would be the cherry on top for the 550. Clean 550 by the way my dream car.
Thanks, I'll pass that on to the owner :)
Again,I'm impressed.
Absolutely loving your 550 Spyder Vlog here in Great Britain Franny, I really want to add a 550 Replica to my Porsche "fleet" now, looks like a wonderful little toy for weekends and car shows :-)
Keep up the fantastic videos Ladies !
Great work Franny. Totally enjoyed the detailed episode. Enjoyed the coyotes. We have them too out here. Love your attention to detail.
I just discovered your channel, and I'm hooked. You're so much fun to watch and I love your enthusiasm. The Beck 550 is beautiful. Thanks for sharing it with us.
Yea! Thanks! and Welcome :)
You always go above and beyond Franny! I love your videos, especially the spyder ones. I’ve decided to keep my 996 turbo and replica speedster. I’ll probably have a spyder built at some point in the future.
Yea!
Wonderful!!!
Great job on the video! This has helped keep me inspired to work toward owning my own 550 replica someday. Keep having fun and making great videos! I can’t wait to see the comparison video with the 356!
Thanks!
another great video. cam from bristol uk
Good stuff. Thanks for the tips.
crumpled up newspaper is fantastic for glass. no streaks or haze
I noticed you mentioned about doing a 'clay bar' as part of the process. Would love to see a video about what this does and when/why we should do it.
Thanks for that Mark. I am planning to do a complete detail on the MINI actually. I'll make sure I explain all that. Short story: It is used to pull embedded contaminates out of the top layer of the pain and will leave the surface silky smooth. It is an important step before buffing as those contaminates can clog up your pads and make the polishing difficult. You can use it without buffing, but I would recommend some form of wax/sealant for protection afterward. Franny
Came out great!
Great job as usual. Thanks for sharing.
oh great... release a video after I have been up 19 hours and specifically about the beck and detailing... Yeah im hooked, wont be able to sleep till Ive watched it. God I hope Nick doesn't release a video while I'm watching this i'll be dead for work tonight. :P update (10:08 am EDT) Nick Murray just uploaded a video... FML!
Yep. Thanks Nick! Lol.
Que trabalho bem feito. 🇧🇷😚
muito obrigada!
Love it!
Did it take until the night?
You must be very tired.
BECK550 Spider, it is very nice!
You should pop them hubcaps off probably getting pretty grimey in back, if you're going to do what shows you must do what doesn't show.
The Spyder looks great! I love the pack of coyotes 👍
Wasn't that cool? They have little parties all the time. I see them now and then. They are all business!
Please bring in your kitties at night to all.
I didn't realize you clean the cars too! The car owner do anything with the car than drive around?
👍 👍 👍!!!
I'm a relative new petrolhead. Your videos rock; less testosterone; more useful information and how tTos Would you mind doing an explanation of rev matching and other spirited driving techniques?
Hi Ruben, Thanks so much! I should do a proper set of driving videos ;) I did a video on rev-matching: th-cam.com/video/VsfeCNI3qiE/w-d-xo.html It is a little silly ;) I'll put it on the list! Thanks, Franny
So neat! So I see Beck is still around...are they still a legit company if you wanted to order a car? I saw they are on an 18 month delay. I've done some other research and have seen other companies making these replicas but they take the deposits and either take years to finish the cars, never finish the cars, or just disappear.
Call me crazy but I still want one.
I wish I could be as detailed as you are when taking care of cars........but, I just can’t! I use Adam’s Waterless Car Wash almost exclusively to clean my Porsche! And their Detail Spray for touchups. I did recently use their liguid wax which I’ll do once a year. I use the rest of my time to just drive!
P.S. Another wonderful video........you did a great job fixing and detailing the Beck Spyder. Love your videos!
Totally great use of your time! It is a car after all... P-cars are to be driven!
Cleaning it what rainy days are for. Florence allowed me wax the wheels😜
Max Martz The problem with that for me is.........it never rains in Southern California where I live! 😂
Perfect work, but i would rather used a more advanced ceramic coating or such. since you preped the car so extensively….
I did think about it, but they are a bit pricey. The owner just isn't worried about such things ;)
👍
Any advice for rim “curb rash,” Franny?
Drive slower?
Franny, what was the final bill for the repairs? The fuel line was so atrocious, yikes!
We did not price the heads. Owner took care of that. Maybe 100 bucks. The heads were probably a few hundred for each, but no idea. Heidi
@@HeidiandFranny About 300+ Shame your not my mechanic.
There are some good detail tips in this video. What did you use to treat the seats?
Hi Steve, I should have mentioned more on that, but it was getting a bit long ;) Leather Seats... I have searched high and low for the best leather protectant, but most are really all the same. Leather is pretty different and, in cars, has all been painted. So, treatment is different than would be for like a leather saddle. I used Adam's leather protectant. It is as good and any other and has a UV protectant which I think is 1/2 the battle. Leather needs to be kept clean. Dirt and grit will grind it to a pulp and hand oils and salt can break it down as well. For now, I just try to keep the seats treated and clean. When I come across the perfect product I'll let you know! F
Steve. I believe we have links to the leather protectant in our pinned comment and description to Amazon. Thanks. Heidi
Thanks so much, Franny & Heidi!
These are coyotes… eating somebody’s pets… 😂
No, not in this case. There are rabbits and such.
