Yes, the super rare Pasha fabric, that's been in 17 of the 24 eighties Porsches that I've owned

Love the work that is done, but missing some critical side notes here. When upgrading the brakes on a car, you will increase the load through the suspension. Make sure the suspension can handle this additional load! Secondly, moving from one piston callipers to 3 piston callipers drastically increases the amount of fluid that needs to be pumped. Therefore you must also change the brake booster and/or brake master cylinder.

Elvis is the true King :)

Love what you done to the Bedford camper 👏👏👊

The description says S18 E2. Bit Elvis wasn't on Wheeler Dealers until S24

I love this car.. Thank u

Elvis ;excelente restaurador y mecanico:

Gran lavoro 👏

What a car !

Bought mine w/187k miles and sold it w/240k and never touched the motor.

So what was the “easy fix” for the high beams… my 911 has the same problem and if I don’t have to spend $500 on a new high/low beam stalk that would be great!

Amazing car 🙂

7:43 my heart skipped a beat

Love it

Those Op-Art checkered seats were very rare in Porsche's..

What happened to the engine rebuild , the bores, bearings and valves and springs must be worn at that mileage

Sub $2k for a top end on the engine? Uhhh, no chance if you actually did a top end. Head studs alone and replacing valve guides and seats is more than that.

I'd like to know where they sourced the brake calipers and discs!?

My god I would love the opportunity to own a 930 in Guards Red.

Old 911 prices are getting out of hand.

On point just right would of been easy to go too far. Remembered it’s a Rolls and respectfully personalised class on wheels.

Love this. The only really interesting part of WD and none of the bullshit.

Porsche make a replacement 80's period looking radio to fit 70's & 80's Porsche's, which has modern features. You could have showcased something like that during this build...

Forgetting hundreds of hours at £100/hr for Elvis's and crews time

Elvis is by far the most versatile so far, sorry Edd

With that being a a 3.0, that motor needed nothing at that mileage. I worked on those when they were new and people would put lots of mileage on them. I've seen them up to 300K before a rebuild.

price ?

There is a way to make that complex piece in one piece. There are some of us that know Metallurgy.

the car is now in good "Nick" as the Brits would say

Very strange that the steering wheel is not from a 911 SC but from a Carrera '85 or younger.

How is this Season 18? Elvis started in season 24 right?

Love the car but an engine rebuild at 100K seems a little excessive.

Elvis is the best

normally, anything you can buy is cheaper than making it . wings for example and they might be 'better' ? . . ; )

The front fender should have been changed rather than patching. It’s not too hard to get another one.

20th time about asking why don’t you allow automatic English subtitles?? Free feature to help non English native people to understand better the language.

Now add the Labour charge in

The wheels are not pronounced foosh. It’s Fuchs which is the german for fox!

well.... saying reliable and volkswagen in one sentence is like saying unicorns exist....

Draining clean oil out….

Where can I get that top end rebulid for that ammount of money ? Screw that, for double of that ammount. I'd be happy if I could pay only double ! So where do I have to ship the car ?

It’s repeating old episodes. 911, Maserati, MX5 ……… different mechanics

Wheels repainted, labor not counted, all in all would cost less to buy a whole car vs spending time and money, unless you do it yourself

They should always have worked in labour costs?

why is the show still going

I was offered a complete G Body 911 for £18k in 2016

Calling Elvis 📞 how many man hrs? And Mike-Bargain at 27k? when book price is 21k in 2023 (24k in 2024) u pay over, then sell under, for a company that people are fighting for lesser models and paying over the odds....you seem to have things in reverse......❤

Wow, it looks terrible!!

Transformer

Even Elvis can't pronounce Porsche.

Noticed we only see him start then finish and clean gloves bring bk ed a real mechanic

We probably won't bounce back... Hope this country will be hospitable for people of the minorities

Ill stick with my Cayman as my daily driver.. more reliable 😂

Complete fake. This car was my friends car and it had to be sold to pay for legal fees she incurred due to her ex sperm donor partner. This is a fake restoration. Shame on you wheeler dealer Mike.
