FULL BUILD | Rebuilding A DESTROYED Porsche 911 Turbo!
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
The original owner took a $100,000 loss on this Porsche 911 Turbo build and now it's up to us to rebuild it! After shooting a rod through the block 300 miles after a 1000hp build we ended up buying this down on it's luck 997 for about $45k, which seems fair considering most of it had to ride back to shop in the truck bed..
Sit back and enjoy the journey from start to finish!

Great Idea
Poor Fernando can’t catch a break. Always a new project! Love these videos. 911s have become a favorite of mine recently
Excellent!!! After 40 years of personal experience, gained from the backyard repairs I struggled through, I have considered myself to be somewhat knowledgeable in auto mechanics. However, after watching your rebuild, I now realize that I am still in grade school. Just great!! Truly impressive!!! Props to you!!! Great Job!!! Great Reward!!!

Good luck!!!! NO REFUND or EXCHANGES!!!!! Lmao
The original owner was very corect...you are very lucky with this amazing Top Turbo 911, and with all the original and rare& expensive parts...Top content, like usually, thanks!
Maybe think about stripping the crank case of everything - hinging the top and bottom - add a little Red Flag to it (potentially using one of the Rods as the flag post) then it becomes the coolest mailbox for the shop ever...
I've grown to like & watch your channel a lot, it reminds me of Stacey David's "Trucks" from the 2000's man. I get those vibe's anyway, keep up the content & great work!!
This is my favourite channel. It shows the fixing before and after. Love it!!
Absolutely one of the best videos I’ve ever watched! Thanks so much for sharing and teaching!
You guys keep crushing it 💪 keep it up loving it
First time seeing the channel. Great video quality. Good details and flows well. Definitely subscribed 👍👍
I love watching yo vlogs for sum reason I love watching ppl rebuild nice kool cars
I’ve have enjoyed every minute of this video great job.
I just came across your vid on the 1988 911 CE. You indicated that there was a missing Carrera badge on the rear of the car. I don’t think it was missing. I inherited one of these cars from the original owner. She drove it off the lot and has maintained it perfectly ever since. The car only has 18k miles and looks like the day it was driven off the lot. Within the past 2 mos, another 88 CE sold for $147k on BAT. The buyer of the car that you highlighted on your show got a great deal.
Amazing build! What would it cost if you were adding in labor costs?
Thanks for making my Sat night this was great!
looovee this series, so cool
What a beast. Love this car.
Fricking Sunday night metal shaping CLINIC by Mike Bello. Dale shine, Mike!!! That’s how an old school pro does it kids.
If I'm gonna get a Porsche in the future, I'm definitely gonna give it a custom paint job. It's definitely not gonna be yellow it's gonna have a green with purple tint and carbon fiber on top of that
Hi Lee. I already have a comment in because i saw this video before. I'm just watching it again lol. And I love the way you know all the parts and how good or bad they are. You stole this Car for that money. Lovely Yellow colour. Beautiful Car Lee. 👏👏😅😅🇨🇮
I know the old owner. He got shafted hard by the dude/shop who built the engine but glad to see you rebuilding it and treating it right!!

Awesome episode 🎉🎉🎉!
Been a follower for a while loved the content keep up the great work😀
Yo Fernando be doing everything showing u how to do it we know ur doing all Fernando 😂
Another great vid and made me appreciate how much money is required to reach 1000hp and how quickly it can all go up in smoke. Thanks for sharing 👍
Those tires are amazing on that car. love it!
Looks so good and sounds really good as well.
I don't know the first thing about restoring cars, i'm not a porsche guy nor have i ever owned one, and I don't plan to...but still watched this 1 and a half hour long video and loved it. Good work
Great work, beautiful car!
Amazing work 🎉👌🏻💯
I'm psyched for the Macan GTS build. I actually drive one daily.
Shout for the Happy Gilmore cut!
Sad to see the 4G go back to stock, cause you were the only other good 4G racing content out here. Excited to see the j37a build on the Type S though🤙. Might as well sell the 4G, and get the TLX Type S 🤷♂️ haha.
I've seen cranks and other parts placed inside a clear glass coffee table. The top usually allows access to the parts and the ability to change things out.
Give him the nutz Fernando! You heard the man! 😂
The only thing I'd have done differently was kept the color matched intake piping. That splash of yellow would really pop the stock bay. But I get trying to reduce the overall cost.
Me encanta 😍 saludos cordiales desde Venezuela 🇻🇪
Stunning litttle car 👌🏽
Kinda feel like the coolant reservoir is gonna cause a problem. Its not even needed on this because the radiator fill is the highest point of the cooling system. With the reservoir being lower than the radiator fill it would be overflowing before the radiator was even topped off.
I love long winded videos ❤
Hey Lee awesome series supa outcome
Road trip them to Monterey for car week this summer!
Fun and stressful to watch thank you .
Yall some bad mofos.....love yalls work
Lee. What is the word "brang" It brought you this much? Dude I am screwing with you! Great video! I had a problem with that word when I was a kid! I have not heard that word since? As you know it is "it brought you" It brings back good childhood memories! LOL! That is one of the words I had problems with as a child! Mazageens was another one! " Magazines" LOL!
Lee. I'm sorry about the "brang" comment! You said "ran" ! My apology! It brought back memories from my childhood! I'm bad but laughing! LOL! I corrected my nephew on that one also!
Tail of the Dragun a must, Leave it stock and drive it every day.
I’d drive that thing like crazy!
Excelente 🎉
The old engine could be turned into a coffee table, with a clear top, similar to the V8 on Top Gear?
Almost there with saving up to buy me one!
“I just closed my eyes and it splattered all over my face”
What camera do you use, and what micrphone its great qualtiy and audio!
Hi just a simple question- Why do you not clean the engine and transmission ( exterior) and make it SPOTLESS before reinstalling, in fact I would clean EVERYTHING before reinstalling
If the original owner is looking in... Kudos to you, you loved that car. Sorry how it eventually treated you and that you had to let it go. Hope you go onto better things.
Awesome car, have you ever put a k24A in a 911?
Literally watched the whole video no skip for a whole hour and half 😂
After watching this starting to rethink my choice of buying a new Porsche
Turn the engine case into a bar b que, just needs a grill on top, and a cleaning internally, for quality cooking conditions.
What a great car
Quick question guys : was the car running on E85 ? I'm running my Cayenne S 4,5 on E85, but never dared swith to E85 on my 997.1 CS 2
dude no way i knew the previous owner of this car! what a NIGHTMARE he went through with that thing

This Turbo911, reminds me about the legendary car Yellow Bird by Ruf...
I’ve been looking at these again since I sold my last, it is difficult to find one at a good price with decent history.
That dude bent the turbo or something with the jack at 51:15
You should send the damaged parts to Christopher Michaels to create some sort of art piece for the channel/shop.
Can nyou use the crank case in a vw or audi upgrade?
Nice

I'm surprised that this 1000HP engine had crappy H beam rods. They should have used I beams.
@sutherlacd27

After researching what people typically use for rods in these engines I was surprised to see that most people use h beam rods. Most of the aftermarket options are h beam rods. Pauter makes I beam rods though which is what I want to use
Upgraded turbos and headers!! LoL
Color matching sticky notes😂
Where u guys at in Maryland? I live in Hagerstown and would fn love love love to come see yalls shop! I'm only just discovering your channel and I really dig what yall are doing!

Porsches tend to hate having their sunroofs removed. They’re like a kid with a bad haircut - they tend to act up until it grows out. The purple one will never run right until you put the sunroof back in. 😂
omg bird poop on the bumper!
Next time code rear C.U. For a fixed spoiler
Not trying to be funny. But should a Porsche (with an engine) be loaded on a trailer backwards since most of the engine weight is in the back? 🤔
I want the big one.
Why not rebuild that crankcase and pistons? Yes complicated but possible considering the value? It can be welded and rebuilt? yes, would be a good project! ;)
Hellcat enthusiasts: 1:10:57
TURN THAT INTO A WALL SCONCE!
31:51 did the paint got dmg?
Fuck that shop for doing the previous owner dirty like that.
I say put it together and upgrade it because that is what people want, really! If you are young enough, go for it! Me, I do not have enough time left! ;)
I want the big one
