We have to start somewhere, right? So it may as well be the seats! These seats need replacement covers really but I bought some Clyde’s Leather Treatment (AND a 20% discount you guys can use) so let’s see how that works. We do need a nice place to sit when we use the car and even a moron like me can get the lather back using a product like this.
So in this delightful film (hehehe) I will show you how to clean, recolor and nourish the leather so that it looks SO much better than when we started. Let’s start with something easy to keep up the motivation to do more!
Also an update on the transport damage too!
All written, researched and edited by me. You can download all my Porsche model guides at www.jayreadyoutube.com so go and take a look there, OK?
Why not follow me on Instagram too? I am a CAR guy first and I get around so take a look at the reels and pictures that I take because you might like them! Also you get news on my own Porsche, my MG and other life events there before RU-vid! Look for jayreadyoutube on Insta now!

That intro was a masterpiece, love the sense of humour I these videos. With that said I’m starting to grow fond of the 928 more and move with every video. You are saving this car for sure, can’t wait for the next video.

I’ve been to quite a few Cars & Coffee at my local Porsche dealership, and several other Porsche-centered meets, and I’ve never seen any concours Porsches (aside from the ones sold by the dealership at astronomical prices). Older Porsches are drivers cars, and they are driven more than fussed over. Some flaws are part of the charm it seems, and will be gotten to eventually. Seeing those cars made me feel better about my own 85-footer that’s for sure.

Enjoying your vids. Just subscribed and looking forward to more. I bought a 84 928 five years ago and I’m still working on it. Best tool for the money is a 2 post lift. These cars are great for guys who enjoy working cars. If you have to farm out everything you will need to do to maintain this car, your going to get tired of writing checks. Hope you and your 928 have a long and happy relationship. Doug in Tennessee.

I love the 928, a fine choice, clean the earth points, and the 14 pin connector , pop new fuses in, a can of deoxit is good to keep electricity where it should be. I don’t have one anymore but I did pay close attention to my 40 year old electrics and it went a long way towards reliability. Enjoy it, Jay, I look forward to seeing more of this series. Thanks for sharing, when will the next vid be out? 😊

Glad to know I am not the only one that keeps gloves handy for other stuff I am into. That line was gold! I have an 85 footer 996 C4 aero. If you ever drive your 928 from Connecticut to British Columbia....never mind that won't happen successfully. I don't think mine will make it to Connecticut either. Happy dumb decisioning from a fellow practitioner.

I have always loved the shapes of 928’s. I come for your humor. I bought a German car in San Francisco. I really wanted to fly out to drive it home. The dealership called late in the day “we didn’t realize how rare this car was” in the meantime I realized driving a Porsche 912 targa soft rear window was not that wise. Anyway, I am still getting calls from transportation companies. I feel for you.

Hi Jay, In Europe at least, we can renew leather with products from COLOURLOCK. They have their own “liquid leather” with which repairs of badly damaged leather can be carried out. Maybe take a look at their website.

Nice and easy way to improve the 928 😀 hopefully the finish turns matt over the time. What also could be a good improvement if you're gonna change the tires to upgrade the rear tires to 245 width on S4 rims. They fill the wheelarches very well 💪🏼

Thanks Jay. Just ordered the conditioning kit and saved a couple more bucks with your code. My 06 997's seats are very stiff. I'm hoping this stuff will work. I've tried numerous other brands with no luck. I was this close trying Vaseline, Extra Virgin Olive Oil, or WD40. Such is life reading the boards on how to restore stiff leather LOL. BTW, love the 928s. Lots of luck with it.

Quality over quantity in all things Jay, even subscribers. (Although there is a certain quality in quantity. lol.) I love the 928 and will be following on religiously. As an aside, I have watched one youtuber with 2 million plus subscribers and the personality of a potato. It reminds me of the current state of the music industry. There is no accounting for taste.

Hi Jay! I had a black 1988 928S4 Automatic. One tip that shocked me is I used some of that old Nevr Dull wadding polish stuff on those same wheels you have and I had and they came out like Chrome! I never knew it was shinny under there! Might work for you?

Porsche built the 928 to a very high standard, certainly including the leather upholstery. Well worth spending the time, cash, and effort to "bring the leather back" as much as possible. I'm enjoying the channel with one exception: "My car's crap" is neither accurate nor a very engaging title, even allowing for British humor.

This car is not going to be a money maker. The scratches from transport on a used car that has been battered isn't worth the worries, most of it can be buffed out and clear coated again. Would be fun to watch you do the bonnet and nose yourself..
@JAYREAD

Hahaha! No, Ted! It’s battered aluminum which is down to bare metal. It’s not buffing out! Aluminum requires more skills than I have and, besides, why should I do it when it’s not my liability! ❤️

If one wanted perfection, buy a new Porsche (even then there are flaws including the outlandish price). Older Porsches have character and panache. All and all most 30 year old Porsches are in significantly better condition than other brands, because most Porsche owners value the brand is more than just a means. My 1999 911C4 has character and age, but still emits Porsche panache. I know her flaws and yes I did fall for the IMS scam (nothing wrong with my bearing). There is an obligation in owning an older Porsche, maintain the standard and leave as good if not better than when you acquired.
@JAYREAD
@JAYREAD Год назад
The word ‘panache’ is the word that describes me most perfectly, I think. Yeah, I’m gonna go with that. Panache.
