- Hi Everyone,
This is the last video of this series but with one bonus yet to come... I install some LED taillights from CU-Layer and show the 356 Electrics Headlight relay upgrade. After that, it is finally time for a real drive and review!
CU-Layer: culayer.com/
356 Electrics (Joe Leoni's) relays: www.356electri...
Electronic flasher relay: amzn.to/35niwJ3
We ended up with an extra headlight relay. If you are interested at cost, please send us an email (in our About Tab) and we can work out the details.

Your so cool Franny ! Another great video.
Thanks! :)
great end to the series, loved the driving view. loved seeing your expressions whilst driving the 356; gave me a few smiles wishing I had the opportunity to drive it. lovely little rumble from the exhaust, i quite like the loudness of it! brilliant work!!!
Thanks so much. It was a fun project :)

Your channel deserve a chance in Discovery Turbo, its amazing.
Aw. Very nice. I have not see the show, but I did a Google search and it appears to be a car channel. If we were more well known, we might get that opportunity. Please share if you enjoy our show. The more subs we get, the closer we get to those goals. Thanks for the huge compliment! Heidi
it just puzzles me that i'm doing the same job as they are doing in their videos,how come they still finish the job without breaking a sweat and clean too ,me after working on a simple job i end up looking like a hobo haha
gilbert sanchez And a spotless pink blouse no less!
This was a very nice project. Thank you for sharing.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year from family to yours.
Thanks you so much!
Is that luggage behind the driver's seat? Are you planning to make a longer (test) drive with the car?
I think the Luggage is part of a whole kit... Sadly the car is gone back with the owner. Maybe another time ;)
@@HeidiandFranny Thanks for the reply. Love your show.
Wow! Nicely sorted engine, trans, suspension. Coming out of turns, engine sounds and ease of shifting is very sweet (great job Franny). BTW did you deal with the small trans oil leak?. Thanks for the series ... great stuff.
Thanks so much Tony. Yes on the leak... I'll have a bonus for you guys in a few days :)
Enjoyed the series! Great job as usual and beautiful car. Thanks.
Thanks you!
I love the 356 series, nice work by Heidi&Franny❤️❤️❤️
Thanks so much!
The attention of the other Porsche driver at 16:45 tells you you did a great job.
That porsche cayenne said "hey look it's grandpa!"
What a great little car! Love the exhaust note, it doesn't sound like a hopped up VW. Thanks for sharing your process, tips and tricks with us. Wish I could afford one of these. Do you ever work on 914s?
Thanks Randy! I haven't worked on a 914, but I bet they are just a hoot.
sweet ride,the led lights are a good upgrade
We always get remarks on drives that people can actually see us. I think they are well worth it...
@@HeidiandFranny i think i need one on my karmann ghia, the tail lights are so small they think its turned off and its just reflecting light from the reflectors :)
Great series! Thank you!
Thanks Jeff!
It's so great to see the C car coming to completion, and to see you out and about on those great roads in your area. Looks like a pleasure to drive and enjoy! Definitely a great reward to all that hard work!
Thanks so much Pat! Sorry we didn't get to drive the roads a bit more when you were out. Next time!
Love this channel big big fan!!!
Thanks!
Franny--Why didn't you check the condition of the nose where the outer part of the seal fits for damage?
Thx for making the comparison to your 356A, keep up does great videos.
Wow another wonderful series. Simply enjoyable, informative and you make it fun. Keep up the great work. Regards to Heidi!
Thanks Alex. I will be back soon.
This series has brought me a new appreciation for the 356!!
They are pretty cool, huh...
Nice example of a 'C, though a little over done for my taste. I'm sure the owner enjoys the hell out of it though, and that's what matters! Nice job Franny!
Thank You for all the work... Wish the best for Next year. 😉
Thanks so much! You too :)
You always do a great job. Thanks much. Roadster owner for almost 50 years and I still like watching you explain things. Well done.
Thanks so much!
Love watching this series.
OK, you make the best vids! Good light, good camera work, great explanation. I’ve been a German car guy most of my life and love air cooled engines. Sadly, I own all Acuras today, if only you worked on them! Doesn’t matter, I will still be watching all your vids, I’m a car guy first and love watching you wrench.
Thanks so much!
I learned in my youth that the redline on the tachs were originally set as follows: 4500 RPM for the 1.6 Liter "Normals" (60 hp), 5000 RPM for the Supers (75 hps) and 5500 for the Super 90s (90 hp). Miss Eva therefore is a Normal (Born that Way) and will likely have the original cylinder head hardware which is not made for the higher revs. The Normals are more challenging to drive since you have to run at least at 3000 RPM to have the necessary oil preassur and not surpass 4500 RPM due to the less finessed cam shaft and rocker hardware. Most of the Normals went to the USA by the way. A big bore kit will kill a Normal unless the cylinder head is bored out (piston slap!)
Correct! I would add that the Normals are a tad more torque down low so arguably easier to drive in traffic and easier to get off the line (probably splitting hairs). It can be challenging to match the revs and the gearing in some instances - like up steep hills and such. You either go 25 or 45, but 35? not so much... It is something I really like about that car actually :) Talk about being connected!
You are very talented , and very technically savy Thank You For A Great Video that is inspiring :)
Thanks John!
How on god's green earth can anyone give these video's a thumb's down. You are meticulous! Keep up the great work! Thank's for sharing!
Thanks so much!
Franny do you still have headlight relay? How much?
Hi Bill, that came from Joe Leoni's 356 Electrics. Joe has since passed away but his son Matt and crew are still working on these kits last I heard. Try contacting them at 356electrics.online
porche vs porche at 16:43?
G'day Franny, are you sure you wanted to return this "C" to its owner? It sure is a beauty!
lol! It is a beauty! I hope he is enjoying it :)
IxR drop, low cycle metal fatigue... another great video by professor Franny! Thanks Heidi and Franny!
Enjoyed this video. What a sweet car! great photography and sound. Franny's going to become a 356 specialist...
I watch for the technical info, and your LED install and electronic flasher segment was interesting. But the driving sequence was very pleasurable, you did a great job filming and editing that and giving the feeling of being in the car. Now I want a 356!!!
Brilliant. Meticulous work as usual, and a great car
Thanks so much!
Hey Franny, just watched this series today on the little 356C today while under our countries Covid-19 lockdown. What a beautiful classic car, and you are an absolute gem of a teacher! I really enjoy the detail you go to and how you explain all the tech stuff in plain langauge, which I understand totally as I'm a techy telecommunications/mechanical engineer too. I've learnt lots about these machines, and would have no trouble pulling these things apart (if I had one! lol), having seen you do it.
Enjoyed that Frannie. I miss my 356B. What a dope I was for selling that car.
Entertaining and educational stuff. Yes, these cars are so fun to drive at 55-60 because so light, responsive and close to the road you feel like you are going so much faster.
I love your channel Franny and the cars!
Thanks!
Hi Franny. I have a 356SC myself and I think these videos are great. unfortunately the CU Later rear LED's don't fit my European spec car. The interior high level brake light looks good though. Do you know who makes it?
I'll check. So the CU Layer won't fit? Are the tail lights original? You might want to reach out to them and see if they have a solution.
@@HeidiandFranny I believe the tail lights are original Euro spec items. Unfortunately the CU Layer doesn't fit all Euro spec cars. There is a warning to this effect on the CU Layer website. I'll send CU Layer a picture on mine to see if they can come up with another idea - thanks for the suggestion.
Thank you
Hi! Where did you get the third brake light?
Sorry Mark, it was on the car when the owner purchased it. It is 6V...
Awesome little ride. Great job!
It really is special :)
Man that car sound's great!! I hope that owner appreciate's having a friend like you!
Please let me know which company make this LED Tail Lights
Hi Alex, The company is called CU-Layer: CU-Layer: culayer.com/
Heidi and Franny's Garage Thanks! Great videos! After tuning up my 1963 356B follow your instructions, the back fire is gone 👏👏👏
great sound. is this stock?
Great question! Those pipes are a bit big and it sounds a bit throaty to me. But, the 356 is always a different sound from any flat four I've ever heard...
Good idea. I never drive our old Porsche at night. Our headlights aren't so bad, but the tail lights are quite dim.
The LEDs make a huge difference! During the day and in the rain as well...
@@HeidiandFranny This project, looks like my level of ability. Considering this thanks to your channel.
Amazing car, congratulations!
Thanks!
another great video! like a pro. perfect. thank u
I always look forward to all these videos on this channel.
Beautiful work Franny - love it when you go out for a tootle 👍😍
Once again you’ve done a great job Franny. I’ll be ordering both the switch and the tail lights...you take all the apprehension out of doing the work yourself.
Great review of the C Car...didn’t know if you caught the Macan rubbernecking you around 16:45!:)))
I did see that while editing. Almost a little surprised, but a Porsche is a Porsche :)
Nice camera work and editing! I could just keep watching you driving that old Porsche!
Thanks so much! It was a fun car to drive :)
That was a great series. Good upgrade on the rear lights, very nice piece indeed, just as the headlight relay. I like my cars as original as possible, but safety definitely comes first. This car brings back some memories; my dad and I drove a rally in a 356C back in 2006. We finished first :)
That's great! What a great memory :)
Great job. Wonderful Series. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks so much!
I loved the journey great series
Really fun to watch! Awesome job👍 Did you do any suspension work on the car? Merry Christmas to you both!
Thanks Norm, no, no suspension work. All that seemed pretty sorted, but I just didn't have the time. To many crazy things popped up.
Excellent series, I wish you can work on my basketcase 63 S B! Needs an engine overhaul imho.
Oh my... Sounds like fun though :)
Loved this series Franny!!
Another fantastic series. Can’t wait for you to get back on the 3.2. 👍👍
Me too ;)
Lovely piece of machinery...there's just something about the mechanical nature of old cars that's so appealing. Do you think that if the opportunity arose you'd daily drive something like this?
Hi Chris, I would. It is really all the car I need. It would depend on where though and if there was any scary driving, but I'm completely at ease with them.
Thanks Franny for another great one!
Very very nice. Thanks for taking the time to share with us viewers. Learned a lot and enjoyed every minute. 👍👍
Thanks so much Mike!
Complete and pleasant series !
Almost hate to see it done. Definitely a beautiful little car. Thank you!
Thanks John!
Nice series ladies. Can’t wait for the next adventure.
Getting back to the 3.2 soon :)
Great video and the perfect ending to this 356C series!
Thanks!
Beautiful job on that 365c
Thanks!
Do for vw pls!
