As someone who is restoring an old car myself, I don't know if I tell you congratulations... or that I'm sorry for you!🤣 But I think you've had a great first step, just by cleaning up the car the best you could. In most videos, people tries to first start those barn finds covered in dirt, without even changing the oil, which is the cheapiest thing and can save your engine from a disaster... Good luck and best regards from Brazil!

@aj_nichols 2 года назад

Thanks for the tip! Im gonna drop the engine and take it from there!

I know bikes are bit different from cars but i was bad at oil changing when i got my first bike was brand new and the first oil change was like 6k km and for the second one the mechanic said that was no oil left lool he was surprised about why my bike was not burn without oil xD My bike was a 125cc tho, but i used it every day until it finally broke xD

A 911 SC as a barn find is pretty rare, glad you rescued it. Looks like it's going to take a fist full of vids and dollars.. good luck.

@JinxBikeRace Год назад

i found a nearly mint condition 78 911sc as a barn find a few years ago, owner would only sell me it if i picked up a 914 with it but it was definitely worth it.

@ComeJesusChrist Год назад

Finally someone is not starting the process with blowing the car to pieces with a pressure washer! It’s shocking to see people start the engine after decades in the barn without replacing the fuel, oil, filters and consumables.

@sckirschstein 2 года назад

My suggestion: Get a spacious protected shop. Get several shelfs. Get the mechanical manuals for parts, procedures and torques. Porsche can help you. Get the proper tools. Disassemble as much as you can to clean, de-rust, replace or restore by parts. Use the shelfs to classify, label, keep or replace by part nr. Plan you work, work you plan, piece by piece, system by system. Over all...: Try to not convert your 911 jewel in to a VW, altough they have the same father.

@aj_nichols 2 года назад

Nah, I'm just gonna get it running and drive it through mud puddles.

@sckirschstein 2 года назад

@@aj_nichols Don't say that, it's a sin. Before any mechanical rotation of the engine a oil change is recommended with carter examination for debris and coals. Old oil is water-saturated, so after the first minutes of being shaked in a warm running engine it will emulsionate to loose main lubricant and cohesive properties. You will terribly damage cilinders, piston bearings, camshaft, everything that needs lubrication in that precision jewel.

And, the hell hole is in great shape! I've just been cleaning it up, replacing all fuel lines, brake lines, suspension and rubber bits. I'll definitely be following your progress now! 👍👍
