993 Turbo Barn Find | First Wash In 5 Years + Restoration 

The horn honking was the car cheering that it’s finally back on the road. Love to see this.

Amazing car story, amazing detailing & you can see how personal you take your work & you know how much that family car means to them. Keep up the great work 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Very moving. I shared it with my son while crying. Such a cool story in all ways. Thank you so much.

I am not sure how I JUST discovered your channel, I watch so many detailing videos as I am a detailer myself. Your gift for explaining all of the processes is so helpful and appreciated. Thanks for sharing your knowledge 🙏🏻

The best Turbo generation of all times!

Great video!! Terrific story. Greatest last Gen AirCooled Turbo. But background music volume must be lower. Piano was competing too much with your voice/story.

Damn this story hits for me… glad I found your vid and channel. Just like the owner of the 993 I lost my dad to cancer (came out of nowhere for him) 4 years ago. He raced Porsches in PCA and SCCA, had a number of different Porsches over the years but he kept a 77’ euro spec car that he imported himself in the early 80’s. The car has sat since the early 90’s, and it’s been in my garage the last 4 years… it runs and drives, but def needs some sorting. Even if I never get the car fully sorted, I don’t see myself ever letting it go lol.

This is a bucket list car, especially in guards red.

I purchased my 911 and had my elderly father come with me to buy the car. We flew to Boston for the day, enjoyed dinner and shared the experience together. This reminds me of that day. 🙂

Dude you killed it! I think this had became my new favorite video from you. I hope this gets the views it deserves. All of your hard work will pay off soon. What a time capsule that car is. I hope the son cherishes that car. 10/10 video man!

Amazing story and job on this dream car. It looks so good. I'd love to see a follow up video on this car.

Wow, awesome video!

I have a $300.000 car. Where is it? Oh, it's in the barn. Crazy!!! :o

The car was honking itself in joy.

Thanks so much for sharing the story. Great job (as usual) on the detail. For a lot of folks cars are just transportation, it’s nice to see how people can come together over because of them.

What a fantastic tribute to the family and this 993. Porsche is as much about legacy and continuity of tradition as it is about the car itself, and your video captured this perfectly. Well done - says a lot about the work you do.

Single stage paint looks the best for solid colors especially black. Clear over black looks milky you will not see a true black unless you use single stage paint. The red on this car is quite amazing, a brilliant color for this car.

Good video! The music was a tad too loud though.

His Dad would appreciate this 🙏

Super video and what turned out to be a real nice 993 Turbo Por-Sha.

Thanks for sharing.

What a beautiful tribute and what a find stunning looking car that is

I really appreciate that you guys didn't try to talk or con him into selling it. Anyone else would immediately start making offers and try to take advantage of all of the issues to get it for cheap.

That car has definitely stood the test of time. After the amazing detail job, it looks as good today as it did new, especially that beautiful wing on the back of that car which harkens back to the days not long before this particular era of Porsche of the "whale tale". I saw one of these 993 Turbo's not that long ago going across I-64 in Lexington, KY in bright yellow and it looked absolutely fantastic. You could tell the owner took very good care of it.

Hi (again), you suggested I watch this video after a previous comment I made on one of your videos. A sincere comment, you have very special talents the videos are clear evidence, but what makes your videos really special is YOU. I appreciate your direct, simple, straight-forward honesty and patience. Thank you Mr. [insert surname here]

Wow what an amazing video! Thank you for taking the time to do this. I'm an owner of a 1995 C2 and I have a part time detailing business that focuses on Porsche. I recently did a 79 Turbo Guards Red and this really hit home for me. Keep up the great work. Subscribing!

Stunning and straight from the heart thanks 🏆

I absolutely love your attention to detail. I've watched a few of your recent videos and I'm hooked!

Awesome video 👍👍. Beautiful 993 ❤️ way better looking than any Porsche now days

Thanks for the awesome video

brilliant story. Thanks for sharing. Really showed how much this one meant to you.

Amazing work! Thank you for sharing! The explanation of the paint correction for this 993 shows a lot of knowledge and experience of your great work.

Wonderful chronicle of an amazing car and the meaning it elicited beyond its brand for the family.

Love this story. Glad to hear it's back on the road what a gem

I loved watching this.

You and Larry are my go too for relaxing and feel good videos. Exceptional work. Love how you understand paint and how to work with it

Wow, Fantastic video!

Great video.. great story ..great job..

Beautiful story and great job on the detailing.

simply beautiful!

Very well done, nice job. Now looks great, loved it 😍

Awesome story!

Wonderful work and a beautiful story.

Really AWESOME story, perfect delivery, and as a car lover, the emotion hit right in the spot 👌🏼❤️ The way you unfurl the story is really touching. My wife is a Porsche Ambassador and we are PCA members out of Colorado, I can attest that within the community of Porsche aficionados there are lots of cool stories, but this one is Ultra Special.

Great video i really enjoyed this video thank you

Awesome story, awesome content 👌🏻❤️🇬🇧

Oh man this car deserved this love. Nice work.

NICE JOB Great Story

Would love to see an update video if possible; hows the car doing, how effective has the ceramic coating been in protecting the single stage paint from uv/oxidation. ... definitely wouldnt mind looking at some more b-roll of this beautiful car. Loved the video!

Love your work dude! Love the Amélie soundtrack!!

Excellent story-telling and chronicling of a piece of automotive history 👍🏽

Absolutely stunning .. thanks for sharing the story of it :)

This car looks beautifull!

Fantastic job! This story is why we do it!

Awesome story and another great video production

Absolutely fantastic video ! And I think only true car enthusiasts will appreciate it . Thank you so much for sharing it .

Really enjoyed that thanks 👌

this car is amazing. by every evolution, you see, it´s a PORSCHE. AND THE NEXT GENERATION, oh it´s more looking great as before.

Great video. I’m kind of shocked that this 993 came from the factory with single stage paint

What a beauty! Great result 'bravo'

Stumbled across your channel and loving the videos, music could be dropped as I’m more interested in listening to what you have to say. Very knowledgeable guy and I can feel your passion for what you do.

It's clear this particular car with it's personal history has really moved you, that is evident and you did an amazing job. Dry ice cleaning underneath to enhance it's value, do you think....?

My dream car 993 turbo, beautiful car and a beautiful story. My dad had a red 944 porsche and he also passed away from cancer. Really hope they never sell the car and keep it in the family.

Great edit, great music and great story. Awesome work which shows that that last 1% (99%->100%) can be only achieved by passion, which only a few are driven by. So far the best and the most inspiring video on your channel.

Beautiful car and stunning looks after the meticulous detail.

Awesome story and a one of a kind car! Iconic Porsche. I would definitely want to see the rest next part where the wife of the owner sees the car😀

My regards for you from Kuwait... Thanks for the video

Beautiful car 👍

One of porches most beautiful design

Thanks!

You Are A Great Person!

Perfect timing. Thanks. Edit: triple quadruple thumbs up.

I have the same car. Same exact repairs to make. Horn, sunroof, turbo leaks and needs paint resto.....want to do another one?? Great video!

The 993 is the most beautiful turbo of them all. A mix of the 995 and later..

I've got a few 993s, I'd love to get detailed at that level!

Damn, what a beautiful car. Guards Red 993 Turbo is one of my dream cars

Hard bro 🏅🥇🏆🙏🏻😎

Very nice, although you guys forgot to point the center wheel cap crests to the tire valves. Details I know. Porsche fanatics notice. Beautiful car, great job.

what an unbelievable story. awesome!!! whats crazy is im a prevoius car dealer prep dept mngr and detailer. ive been doing cars on the side since 93. my brother actually got a guards 97 993tt after his e46 m3. ive been taking care of the porsche since he has owned it. its under 25k now all o.e. parts that came with it all records and its just a great example. ive got it 1st place twice at hershey pca swap meet in its class and it hasnt gotten below 2nd anytime its been in a judged event. its such a bueatiful car but the paint is very finicky. we use all groits cleaners and a german 2 step glaze and sealer calld klass. it comes together in a gray and 1 red rect bottles. it works well and ive only clay barred it once. so my friend the job you have done here is absolutely stunning. i cant tell you how awesome it was to hear this story. i consider myself lucky to even drive and take care of him its a very special and now extremely valuable. since 2022 started there's been 6-8 993 turbos sold for 300+k.. this video will get watched many times by me so a sincere appreciation of this video my friend. please be well

I've a 1996 993 C2 iris blue metallic, 66,000 miles, 6-speed manny tranny, varioram. No CEL, no oil leaks. I'm never selling it.

That's such a great story!

Besides the 959 this is my second porsche

Porsche ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

My buddy had a similar 993 Turbo Black On Black. He put some HREs on it

Good job, beautiful car. I had a flat red car that could turn pink if not cared for.

Just come across your channel and the 993 turbo is fantastic ! lovely work and interesting esp on the oxidized paintwork as im currently trying to sort my roof on my 1998 VW T4 Transporter as its flat black and very dull. So ive liked and subscribed keep up the good work !

ooof i want one so bad

you legend.

Great job at bringing the car back. What kind of ceramic coating you use?

What a great story and amazing automobile. Nice work and tribute. Are you doing a family reveal vid?

its crazy that 90's model cars are considered barn finds now.

Beautiful story and superb car but may be a little more action time like action with voicing over the story. Thanks for taking the time to share

Dry sump and 5 years without running, add some minor external oil leaks, and that smoke is relatively normal on the first startup. The oil tank is located above the cranskhaft level, and it goes into combustion chambers by gravity, through piston rings, and after so many years without running.

Fascinating! So off the top of your head, this car would require - just roughly - how many 6", 3" and 1" pads?

I knew a guy back then 1995 who bought one of these brand new. I was gushing all over it and telling him how important it was as one of the last air cooled 911 turbos. All he did was shoot it down, telling me he hated it and it was riddled with issues.

OMG!!!!

❤

Car just a dream
