@@gregfrance1548 as a tradesman myself,I actually prefer watching Steve work, that's how I leant most of my trade, I also love the use of hammers to create new shapes Just gentle tender blows and years of experience
Been dealing with excess amount of fiber lately myself, and another one that I really didn't expect happened today... Epoxy filler used on rusted rear framerails, when I yanked off the epoxy in one big flap, there was no framerail left, I then turn the big flap of epoxy the other way around and sure enough... found the framerail, in the form of cakes of rust stuck to the epoxy 😱 The belt grinder is really nice for this sort of work though, I bought one after watching your videos. It doesn't kick filler and fiber all over the place like a grinder wirewheel or flapdisc does, so it's far more comfortable to work with, minimizes the mess! The problem you mentioned at the beginning, no access, and can't put it on a 2-post lift or rotisserie because of compromised strength, I recommend getting a 4-post ramp lift, that way you still have the car nice and level, you can reach inside those areas from both sides of the ramps (better than completely blocked by a floor), and at much more comfortable working height 😁
@@yorkshirecarrestoration Spot-on! Seeing as I do mostly rust repair on the 4 post I bought a used Stenhoj, looked around for half a year before I settled on it. As I see it, no point littering a new one with weld spatter 🤣
I know one thing Steve that car is going to be stronger than new you did outstanding 👏 good job I just can't get enough of these videos I especially love the videos having to do with structural I can't get that chassis rail out of my mind Ryan made for Matt Armstrong BMW..
Another superb repair Steve fascinating to watch ! 🏴👍🏻😉 n made even more impressive from awkward floor level , spent most of my life working like that on cars 😉👍🏻
Watching you breakdown these complex repairs into manageable chunks is a real education 👍🏻 the poor owner must dread you phoning him up…. ‘ Hi it’s Steve about the Porsche, guess what we’ve found a bit more rust ….’
Blowtorch & burn it. That's what I do when I hit a big globbed-up section covered in filler/glass/bitumen crap. Leaves nice clean metal when you scrape off the toasted crud. Saves ages trying to battle getting it off. :-)
Took me back to welding the floor of my wife's Porsche 924S on the driveway in January with all the headroom axle stands can afford. I'll bet you were stiff and sore after that shift.
loving this restoration! When you start this, how do you even determine project cost? Seems like there is so much that wouldn't be apparent when you start.
@@yorkshirecarrestoration Perhaps a Guesstimate might be better with a Porsche or a Datsun😅 I'm sure the owner would appreciate the amount of extra work you put in!!
I will even collect it, your videos are so informative and help a lot of people. Would rather help you to get it back in motion to speed the process up
So I realise that it may just be the way that you release the video's, but Why don't you work on one car until it is finished? Great for us to see content on different projects, but if I were a customer I might be asking why have you half finished my car and then started to work on the Ford..or the BMW...the disaster Datsun?
And all that with a lump of RSJ, a hammer, and an angle-grinder. Amazing.
Thank you Neil :)
Most you tubers need an empty Stella box for CAD design Steve has cloud based 3 D design hardwired into his brain mind boggling
what a star ? I have the feeling that you are finding corners of this car that even Porsche don't know about : ))
What a pleasure to watch a master of his craft at work!! Imagine being an apprentice with Steve as your teacher!
The usual wonderful tin bashing and amazing ability to make up complex shapes by eye and basic tools. Just great!!!!!!!!!!!!!
If that was played in real time it would be hours ! Such patients
Great job as always Steve 👍👍you look very busy 👍
Well done Steve, that certainly was a chewy fix.
Another great video Steve. Fantastic job making things work when stuff goes sideways.
Bloody amazing to watch you mate...
Thank you Neil :)
What a great repair, the way you do this makes it look so easy, well done. 🙂
The voice over is a nice addition Steve , the 911 is coming on nicely
Thank you Colin :)
Yeah. I agree. Love the videos, but some extra explanation for the uninitiated is appreciated
Yes, the productions are getting better.

Full marks for just working out how to tackle that section Steve. Very well done

Got to have the money spare for a 4 post ramp :)

Love the video, very informative and interesting
Thank you, glad you enjoyed it :)
Wery nice videos, enjoing it . All videos are very good and exelent workmanship. Keep up the good work👍👍🤘
Great video as always, guaranteed to feel inspired every time x👍
Thank you Richard glad you liked it :)
Great work again - I do believe you are more than good enough to tackle my drivers door bottom in aluminiumon a ramp 😮 - don’t you
We are half way though one side :)
This is out to the company's out there please for God's sake provide Steve with a floor creeper. That cement can't feel to good. 🙏 🙏
Modern life artists,outstanding work....😍😍
Great work again
Thank you, it is appreciated :)
Great as always
Thank you :)
Brilliant craftsmanship 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Poisonous fumes
Risk of fire spreading
And it ruins yer cup of tea
great video- thank you

I was OK thank you been working on the floor for 30 years so I'm used to it :)
Your body adapts to what you impose upon it (within reason!)
Thereafter there’s little stiffness when doing the same kind of work.
loving this restoration! When you start this, how do you even determine project cost? Seems like there is so much that wouldn't be apparent when you start.
We have to give an estimate on what we have seen before. Unfortunately this one was worst than usual 😵💫
@@yorkshirecarrestoration
Perhaps a Guesstimate might be better with a Porsche or a Datsun😅
I'm sure the owner would appreciate the amount of extra work you put in!!
nice job💪
Budget? This is too good
Great video 👍So real when you make patch panel and cut away about 30% it's one of those things we all do 😅.
👍👍👍👍👍
👍👍
What sort of money is involved in bringing the car back to good condition?
Cheers, Phil
How many hours has been spent to date on this Porsche?
have you ever welded the jack to the car...by accident??
What's broken on the bead roller ? I wouldn't mind the challenge of repairing it
Everything and I just don't have time to repair it haha 😂
More than willing to have a go at repairing it for you FOC. @@yorkshirecarrestoration

@@bloominfast thank you for your kind offer :) 👍
Did I spy an Aston Martin DB5/6 in the opening scene?
restoring at a budget...nope..no can do! great work though!
Thank you. Unfortunately we don't have power over customer pockets :)
You literally built this porsche from the scratch. The body was good for scrapyard.
So I realise that it may just be the way that you release the video's, but
Why don't you work on one car until it is finished?
Great for us to see content on different projects, but if I were a customer I might be asking why have you half finished my car and then started to work on the Ford..or the BMW...the disaster Datsun?
That's not the way we work and we explain that to all our customers :)
Where can I find names of artists or composers from the music you use in this video? Epidemic is not enough, please help
Epidemic electronic TH-cam channel. All these tunes will show up if you Shazam them.
What is Shazam?
Imagine crashing that with a fibreglass footwell
Brilliant fabricators however the worst music on any channel 😂
Well thank you that makes me feel like all my time and effort was worth it.
Oh well, different strokes, I guess.
I love the music!
@@GT380man thank you :)
Most of the music is pretty good IMO
For me it’s a great channel with the sound off however I don’t like to miss what you guys say on occasion.
Well done Steve, that certainly was a chewy fix.
