I BOUGHT A DESTROYED PORSCHE 997 TURBO
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
What a mess! My biggest project yet, a 997 911 Turbo. Can this crashed race car become a street-able reliable daily driver again? Or is it too far gone to save?

Bro , I'm so exited. Please don't change the format or the location, this is what makes you relatable to the average weekend mechanic. Great project!!!
He's finally lost it

Poor guy
This is going to be such an amazing series!
I am so stoked for this build!!! Loved how you brought the 996 Turbo back to life and can’t wait to see what you do with this 997 Turbo! You have amazing cajones taking this on, but know you’ll knock it out of the park!!
That is indeed the rare factory two tone terracotta and black interior. Such a score with the included seats!!! This is going to be amazing!!

Favorite part!
So excited for this series. I discovered this channel with the 996 and loved it. The 997 is awesome and that spec is just about perfect.
You sir are a brave brave man! Great stuff and I’m so looking forward to following this! Thank god you sorted that rear wing though… the sight of the wing on backwards was doing my head it! Congratulations!

Haha, thanks!
Wow. Big job. Much bigger than the 996. Getting the frame straight is step one. Then welding on the body panels. Once you get past that then it’s the 996 project. But steps one a two are big steps. Should be interesting.
Definitely get it repaired/ aligned with a factory deck lid, even it its a carerra one.
Can’t wait to see this all unfold! Pretty sure the whole back end will polish out with some window cleaner!!

When I see the video picture and see a destroyed Porsche I think.. Oh man, here we go again. But I'm excited to see this protect come to live 😬
I think the deck lid for the turbo which gives it a gt3 touring look. Def not the big wing. Standard wheels as well
Excited for this build. Even more so than the 996

Awesome! Another great build coming.
Love this content!! Congrats and good luck!
Yes 997 the sweet spot of all 911! It's a mess but I LOVE the red Taracotta color. I also love the fact that you are going to bring it back to its original glory. Please get rid of that ugly roll bar. You did a phenomenal job on the 996 Turbo and looking forward to this 997 Turbo build!
Sick! This project will take your channel to a whole new level man. Congratulations 👏🏽
Very brave to take on such a big project haha looking forward to more videos!
Hell yeah. Great choice. Will enjoy living vicariously through you and this build.
Yes! This is gonna be a very cool build, I'm hooked already Matt!
O no…. 😂 this is sure a hand full. But this a blank canvas :) can do anything you want
Congrats! Perfect project to keep growing.
Nice project looking forward to seeing this build Nice to see your chanel coming on well all the hard work is paying off ❤🇬🇧
Absolutely excellent - I only wish that I had your skills and mindset - love your Porsche content!!
You just took your channel to the next level with this car! Excited to see the build bro
So jelly! Go Matt! Love the channel and your can do attitude
Right on Matt. You have me hooked for another build.
Awesome! Can’t wait for more updates. Stunning colour combo. That thing was too nice to turn into a racecar.
Looking forward to this rebuild Matt.
Fantastic new project! Really can't wait to see how this one goes!
Stoked about this build, can’t wait to see what problems you are getting with this one 😉
Matt. There is a company in Maryland not to far from York that does LS swaps to the 996. IMO. I would go with a Lt graphite black or dark pewter metallic paint. It would look perfect with the color of interior. B be elieve it or not a a sage would be unbelievable too. Ex painter and body man here. Lol 😂
Can’t wait for this journey. Let’s goo!
Love it!! Keep the wing
This is going to be an awesome project!
Totally sane... And crazy. Great stuff, can't wait to see what you do. 👍🏻
Nice find. Looking forward to the content with this one.
Great project. Looking forward to seeing your fun and games with the 997. Great colour combo. All the best.!👍
Congrats on new project! This is going to be awesome. Keep up the good work sir 👏
Welcome to the 997 club 😊 Wow, I'm excited about this one! Your 996 was great, this is going to be even better. Looking forward to watching the rebuild process
Nice one Matt, I am proper lookin forward to this rebuild!!!
When I said "You shoulda got a 997 if you were going to spend that much", I didn't mean a crashed one. 😅 You're going to have "fun" with this project. Lots of content too! I'll be watching.

It's like that sometimes. Since you made that 996 look good, this should work out fine. @@matt13ross
Yes, yes, yes, I was so hoping your new project would be another Porsche. Can’t wait to follow this build, I know it will be top notch!!
Wow what a jackpot of a buy for a build, can't wait to see what you do with it all
I’ve been a fan ever since your first 996 turbo video build and i can not wait what’s in store with this 997 turbo build.
Excited to see this series! Would be cool to see it even more modified appearance wise than the 996. Spoiler, splitters, skirts, slammed etc.
Hey Matt, so glad you've gone all in with another Porsche project... I'll be watching progress from England mate 👍
Really glad you went with another Porsche 👍
Can’t wait to see more!! Great project Matt!! ✌🏻✌🏻✌🏻
Really enjoyed this intro to the new project. I started watching your channel part way through the 911 996 turbo rebuild. I have a 911 996 c4s so keen to watch. The 997 looks off the chart as a new project. Great to put new enthusiasm into a stalled project by someone else.
Awesome purchase, Matt
So exciting! I look forward to watching every next episode
Really looking forward to this build , 👍
Excellent content, great way of diving in face-first with a youthful curiosity. Giant winged doesn't suit your build then a sport classic style ducktail will make it look real sleek. Keep the content coming enjoying every minute of it. Let's go boys!!

If I can get a cheap OEM wing or something I will. Otherwise, the budget goes elsewhere.
Hi Matt, this is a great project for you and the channel. I watched the whole 996 build and I am excited to see this project progressing over the coming months. Good luck, onward and upwards.

Atta boy this will be a great project
This is awesome Matt, Porsche after Porsche! 🙌🏻
I see where this channel is going!!
Wow! This will be pretty interesting restoration! Love all of your videos
This is going to be a great build to watch good luck!
I kinda like the wing not gonna lie.
This is great! The yellow car turned out great, I look forward to watching this series. 🤙🤙
Excited for another Porsche build!
Ok I’m so glad that you’re restoring the car back to stock HOWEVER please resist putting that ridiculous looking boy racer wing on it. Sell it to someone that is racing and needs it and recoup more funds for the project. See how cheaply you can complete this build. Looking forward to seeing this build.
i love the fact that you went straight into the wing assembly hahaha this project will be awesome! keep it up
Im really hyped for the series! E36 was my favorite, but who knows this could take its spot
Congrats Matt we know u can restore this beauty and it looks like the last owner had alotta parts!!
Definitely looking forward to this restoration! Always enjoy your content!

Surprised to see Bob Woodman deliver the car! He ran a Porsche repair shop for years in Beaufort, SC. Although he probably wasn't the owner, it is somewhat surprising he or Andrew didn't do the repairs and sell for the owner. Hopefully that doesn't mean there is more damage than it looks. Good luck with the repair. I'm subscribed!

@@matt13ross my take on car condition is that if the owner felt the car was not in good shape to rebuild, then he wouldn’t of troubled with all the replacement parts and the costs associated with it. It is a big time consuming project.
Great purchase, I shall enjoy watching! Good luck...
love this, cant wait to see the progress on this project. Really making we want to take the leap into something like this

Hey Mat, the absolute perfect next project
How exciting! Looking forward to see how the rebuild comes along. If you plan on repainting the car, especially the roof, make sure the rear window and front windshield is not replaced before hand.
I love the wing Matt! it’s not tacky
Wow, this will make for some great content and more vicarious living for me. My first take would be to make it a track capable street machine and maximize selling off the extra parts to recoup costs. For example, keeping the track seats and selling the hardback sports, etc. IOW, just get it running, street legal and presentable but not to the level of your 996tt. Minimize the the gap between what you spend and what it will be worth.
Oh wow. Did not see that coming!!! Awesome. I follow you, mat armstrong, scrap life garage.. that all do porsche rebuilds. So pumped for you.
