“I’m all for making my life as simple as possible …” as he dismantles a literal rust bucket on the way to restoring a 65 year Porsche. Keep it up Dom, one step at a time.

@chrischallis4240 Год назад

Yes, I agree..it’s a big project, but finite. So, one step at a time will get her done. ! Keep pressing on Dom - loving the dismantling and restoration process..

Hi dom I've just done a 914 porsche same thing cutting floors out sills box section sub frame nightmare on the up hill know keep going

@williamlindsay987 Год назад

Dom The discouragement that many may feel, watching you uncovering such extensive corrosion, is understandable. However, seeing your response to such an EPIC undertaking is, frankly, one of the best examples of shear dedication and determination that is so rarely seen in our world today. Thank you for that. You, truly are unique for the humble attitude and unassuming manor that you display in your videos. Know this, there are many of us that enjoy the outstanding content that you have and continue to share with us. Thank you again. Don:t stop. Stay safe and Keep your happy face smiling.

You have got to be one of the most resilient people out there! Mind you - you had the courage to take the first step too. Look forward to short progress when you are able Dom.

@highpath4776 Год назад

20 mins for a day's destructive engineering.

@michielvanmeurs4747 Год назад

I can so relate to him doing this, put so many hours in on re building this little car! It is why I now, after 40 years of tinkering, went for a rust free car with only mechanical issues😂 But all the power to you, love watching the channel!

@philtaylor9038 Год назад

"Welcome to the world of classic car restoration" Hardest part is keeping the energy and drive going, don't get disappointed got to get worse before it gets better. At least you have a few great tools to help you. And Jay is on hand if help is needed.

@bjorn.barton-pye Год назад

Keep it up with the Porsche, Dom. If anyone can beat it, you can.

@charlieismydarlin7199 Год назад

Enjoyable and enthralling to watch, but I just can't stop thinking 'Trigger's Broom!' Keep up the good work.

@Liam1H Год назад

You will, of course, get there in the end. But then, you've been here before and you've carried on. You know you can do it because you already have! Numerous times. You just have to remind yourself that you' re going to feel like progress is speeding up hugely and those beautiful lines rapidly taking shape when you actually turn the corner and start welding panels back in. As a fellow member of the Brotherhood of the Angle Grinder, it's so much fun knowing that one very pretty classic is going to be restored as right as can be and meanwhile, we all get to tag along and see that little gem reappear. Brilliant!

@stephanielongden597 8 месяцев назад

Hi Dom, I love your attention to detail and commitment to banish the dreaded rust. Looks like your 356 will be one of if not the very best restored gorgeous Porsche 356 in the world.

@judithbarnett2966 Год назад

Dear me! (Yes!!) We're cheering you on whatever and however long it takes! (& if all else fails, talk about the weather!)

@MrAddks Год назад

Keep going Dom,

@stevedaniels1558 Год назад

Hardly a mini-update! Love seeing progress on this car. Brings the resto of my own project into perspective!

@PeterJewell2 Год назад

Thanks for the 'tips' about the WD40 Flexible (and their cutting fluid, last time). On the shopping list. I don't think I could persevere (or even start) with a project that's quite so holey, so well done for keeping going. But I'm desperate to see something being reassembled soon!

@rona1144 Год назад

I purchased a rusty Datsun 280z with the knowledge I could fix it. I remember removing layer after layer of rusted out panels. I had ordered an elephant size meal of metal work. I finished that meal one bit at a time and did drive it with a huge smile. Some of that smile may have been from the 7.6 liter motor 😊 Kept it up you too will be smiling!

@stephenmorse342 Год назад

Thanks for the update... We're knackered just watching.... how you keep up the enthusiasm is beyond me. Look forward to the next update.

@karlfuller4072 Год назад

Love your enthusiasm, keep it up, we're all relying on you mate.

@zero.697 Год назад

Fascinating you are uncovering history as you go. It goes without saying you have to be meticulous otherwise you will undermine the integrity of the whole restoration.

@PurbleDragon Год назад

I love getting little updates! I don't have the time/space/money to do things like this so I"m living vicariously through your channel. Thanks for doing this for all of us to see!

@kennethhancock2433 Год назад

I owned a 59 A Super coupe from 1971 to 1974. I pampered that car like it was sentient. I can still recall the day I used the supplied jack in the rear Jack point and as the rear wheel came off the ground the Jack point pushed into the body work. The car had rust worm already. 50 years on it is not surprising there is so much rust. Porsche, as you stated, used no paint or galvanizing, just bare metal. Who knew these cars would still be so cherished today? I loved mine. Just not the rust. Great videos. I’m enjoying them very much.

@martinkavanagh196 Год назад

WOW Dom ... Just imagine the satisfaction , knowlege and pride you will feel every time you pull the shiny door closed & sit in the 356 to start the motor and set-off onto the roads. I wish I had some expedrience to help but truly we knew from the start that just like doing-up an old house - the deeper you dig the more you might discover eh. - Solid "pay dirt" metal on that inner firewall is a VICTORY. - Well done from NZ.

@parttroll1 Год назад

I certainly a big project but one step at a time Dom, I’d love to see this Porsche finished by yourself. Chin up fella you’re the right man for the task

@rickorr2181 Год назад

One step at a time. Cut some out, fabricate (or purchase), replace. Fantastic videos, thank you and keep up the great work!

@alibarryreynolds7215 Год назад

Keep going Dom, your audience are with you

@martinacerbo2989 Год назад

Great video! I love how you overcome the tinny million problems that the Porsche through at you. Literally, you opened a can of worms!

@peterhofmann8292 Месяц назад

I do love how you tackle this restoration, I am sure there is a lot of thought put into things before you jump in with angle grinder etc. Continue to be in awe of you expertise.👏👏👏👏👏👏

@janeyadey3336 Год назад

And I thought replacing the kidney bowls in my 3.2 Carrera was painful… You have my respect Dominic - and my prayers…. …keep em coming!

@frankemilio6917 Год назад

all this grunt work will pay off in the end when you have a rust free classic. and when you are motoring down the road enjoying your 356, you will know that you made the car. keep going and keep positive.

@paulhodgson4790 Год назад

Keep the faith Dom, it's slow but steady progress.

@jozsefizsak Год назад

I'm not surprised by the rust. I ended up buying a new Mini in 1979 because the door sills which were a major structural boxed in member, had no coating of any kind on the inside, since the car was painted only once complete. They would actually rust through in a single Canadian winter! If you see Porsche's promo video from the 50s, they are so proud of how impeccably well made the 356 was.. Right, if only. I do love the car so I'm enjoying your project.

@johntisbury Год назад

The joy of unpicking old cars. You will get there, piece by piece, just like eating an elephant!

@dennisnelson1522 Год назад

Dumb don't get discouraged keep up the good work period it is a joy to watch a Craftsman and technician like you work.. Keep

@shedlife1745 Год назад

I love cutting out rust and fitting and making the new panels to go back in. especially working on my own. I go into a little world of my own. Loads of satisfaction when you finish.

@robinbeer4829 Год назад

Fascinating delve into the shell. Can’t wait for the next episode.

@cbpaton53 6 месяцев назад

Hi everyone how is everyone today 😀 hi Dom Chinea, enjoying your videos so far, nice porsche keep up the good work your videos look amazing.

@anthonynash2899 Год назад

Slow and easy wins the race,👏👏👏👏👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🤠

@Mark-RD350 Год назад

Dom you have the tools an no how to do this an they are one of the nicest cars ever so don't give up it will be well worth the time money an effort. can't wait to see it done. an future proof it with rust remedy everywhere you can. Or bring it to the Repair shop lol. lookin forward to the next episode.

@honeymon57er Год назад

Keep going Dom, looking forward to episode 87😂

@rachelwhite3813 Год назад

You're doing some great work, Dom. Well done, Bab, well done!

@junglierich8448 Год назад

Dom - your comments about just wanting to get in a drive it and not getting disheartened with all the chopping out brings back so many memories of my first car (1969 VW Beetle 1300cc) …that had a full body off resto - but at 16 I entrusted the surgery to someone else. It still took some holding of nerves vs no bodywork forward of the door hinges and windscreen surround. Just keep thinking about the slow build back to a recognisable motor. Make sure you take a picture of the broad grin on your face when you finally get to a primed complete rolling body - I still grin now thinking back to that point. Brilliant video again thank you.

@haydenharris5506 Год назад

It looks like this one wants to fight you all the way! LOVE IT!

@robertwells1650 Год назад

Thanks for the short update Dom. Keep them coming, so we can all learn something. Cheers from the west coast of Canada

@GrantMaxwell-h4p Год назад

Small steps get you to the destination Dom. Awesome.

@derekblake9385 Год назад

Keep up the good work Dom, I know exactly what you mean when you have to leave your hobby to go off to work etc, it drives me mad thinking of what I need to do and get done 😂

@xjs36 Год назад

Another great video Dom, it feels like I’m in there with you looking over your shoulder.❤

@moof2 Год назад

hang in there buddy. it's the process that makes it fun. just keep thinking that. cannot wait until you see what you have made when you get to the finish line. nice. keep it goin.

@AshenShugar0965 Год назад

Yeah don't give up, mate. Small steps are always best and good to watch. Shows the rest of us the reality of muddling through. Also the bits that you do recreate on the water jet machine, you might be able to sell as after market parts. You have the patterns. Opportunity is knocking.

@peterbus4066 Год назад

I found it useful to have a powerfile on hand. With that you can really specifically grind away small sections and not have a bulky angle grinder in the way. Great progress btw! Really like these updates

@keyblazerslittlegarage3563 Год назад

Keep that 356 content coming! I want to see you use that E-Wheel!

@craigcox5586 Год назад

You’re amazing, Dom. You’re doing such a great job. I’ve loved watching each episode. Don’t get too discouraged. You’ve got this. It’s a big job, but you’re more than a match for it. 😎🖤 (Now go get a beer 🍺)

@badger_claws Год назад

Stick at it mate 👌

@morrisambrosia6785 4 месяца назад

Hell of a job Don, look forward to seeing your next job

@richardellison536 Год назад

You got to be the most optimistic person I have ever seen. Have to say how impressed I am that you can still feel positive about repairing this car. Not sure how many years this will take to finish but I am hooked, I will be watching and enjoying the process. Stay positive and good luck!

@anglerden6937 Год назад

Cracking job Dom, I, ashamed to admit, would have binned it by now. Keep up the good work!!!

@mikesalkeld4465 Год назад

Hey Dom, there’s a video called ‘Porsche 356 - made by hand’ you might enjoy. It’s a 1950s film of assembly. You may see something that inspires you. You’re making great videos by the way. And amazing progress 🚀

@FhVW Год назад

Love the small updates Dominic!

@KeyWestDrinker Год назад

Dom, we've all gotten to this point in a project and thought whilst sat on the floor with angle grinder in hand "wondering why i took the project on" the difference is with us true petrol heads is obviously we like to get stuck in and do the hard graft because how much we love cars! And on a massive plus side you've got a 356! A dream car for me and many, keep up the great work mate, you'll soon have it on the road and all the stresses of the restoration will fade away, who knows you may even buy another project 😊

@animal_engineering Год назад

Ahh the old rabbit hole, I'm at episode 28 I think on my van. so many times I went to fix a bit of rust and just had to like you keep on digging. At one point I stood back and the whole front of the van was gone, and I was standing there looking at what I had just done, very nervous that I had just done something very very stupid. Keep at it, it will be an awesome well built rust free Porsche driving on the road, with the biggest smile you have ever had. Awesome as always. love it.

@neilvickers2465 Год назад

Dom, really enjoying your restoration of the Porche. It reminds me a bit of the Father Ted episode where they try and straighten out a crumpled car they are supposed to raffle off to help fund repairs to the church☺. Joking apart, I'm amazed at the complexity of how the different body panels meet up, and the number of spot welds! Keep up the good work, looking forward to catching up on a few more episodes👍 Neil

@daveflatters4981 Год назад

I am so impressed by you. Firstly, you can keep a WD40 spray tube for 10 seconds. Secondly, you haven’t gone Postal with this Porsche. I think I would have flattened it and scrapped it by now. 👍👍👍

@6171tara Год назад

To keep the faith just concentrate on one section at a time, if you think of everything that needs done it'll destroy your faith. keep up the fantastic work.

@neilfordham5790 Год назад

Thanks Dom, I hope you can remember how it all goes back 😊 great job.

@Caledfryn Год назад

Like seeing the progress. Time wise it’s realistic. Most of the resto channels make it seem like they do huge amounts in a short time, whereas in reality, it takes bloody ages. Currently in a nut and bolt resto of a 1303S so I can appreciate the work Dom 👍

@torenarend Год назад

It's going to be a stunner.... keep it in mind!

@gavjohnson5343 Год назад

Keep on chipping away Don! 💪🏼👍🏼👍🏼😎

@willduo1 Год назад

Keep it up Dom, I know you’ll get there.

@crysiswolves Год назад

Please keep the videos coming, I'm currently restoring a 1973 bay window t2 and watching these is a massive help with motivation. The Porsche will look stunning when its done thats all u need to remember 😀

@johnsholian4318 Год назад

I’m knackered just from watching. That old 356 is in good hands but it’s not giving up its secrets without a fight. Keep up the good work! No pain, no gain…

@MalteseMafia Год назад

Definitely a Marathon not a sprint. Keep up the good work. 👍

@normanbuild Год назад

What a star you are. Thanks Dom

@thedonbros Год назад

Love the update and can't wait for more, especially working with the body work. Can't wait :-)

@6847810 Год назад

More beautiful work Dom keep it up

@stephenpayne9382 Год назад

Well done Dom, best to get right into it to ensure all the rust is done. I also watch the guy ‘Fitzies Frabrications’ and he is an ace body man. He always says just do one bit at a time and don’t worry about the whole job. It’s good advise.

@besenzon1 Год назад

Definitely more Porsche videos 🤙👍

@terrybailey2769 Год назад

Another great video. Please continue with these updates.

@sarahhall738 Год назад

I definitely in a can of WD40 like that very helpful

@Yew_Tree Год назад

Might be worth drilling a hole the other side and using a scope camera to check inside, would also give access to waxoyl or dinitrol the inside of the chassis leg. Great seeing more of the work.

@alamocannon3791 Год назад

Keep at it Dom. Love watching the Porsche.

@hughbryant1326 Год назад

Keep going Dom. Although it is slow going at the moment remember the Tortoise and the Hare. Hugh Somerset

@glynharper1066 Год назад

Great to see more progress, well taking it apart, as they say it will get worse before it gets better, this time next year it should be a lot different, Im just on with a classic beetle restoration myself.

@lunabouch Год назад

Great update… short and sweet!👏🏻👏🏻👊🏻👊🏻

@boydsargeant7496 Год назад

Well don Dom! I’ve been there, peeling back rusty layers. Nice little corner to work on. looking forward to the next!

Good work Dom, keep it up one step at a time and you will get there!

@geoffmerritt Год назад

Buckling in for the long haul on this project. I just looked at Project Binky, coming up to 10 years in Aug 23. I'm match fit for the long haul.

@josephlovell6951 Год назад

One bit at a time. and you will step back one day. In amazement ! At what you have done...

@mgb961 Год назад

Go Dom Go...inch by inch...inspiring to watch and learn.....onwards!...mark in brisbane

@niklaskjellgren5281 Год назад

Just love the Porsche episodes. Restoring a VW single cab so I recognize the never ending rust removing😂 But keep up the good work and don’t stop filming😃

@brentgordon8769 Год назад

Hi Dom like watching you restore 356 Porsche it bring back old memoirs of my old 1961 356 B super 75 !!! Brent Gordon of Canada

@drewmartinezart Год назад

You are a brave man. Thoroughly enjoy your channel. Cheers!

@shauntvr4312 Год назад

Your doing well keep at it 😊

@RCCR-73 Год назад

I watched an episode of Car SOS the other day were they restored a 356 C. That car should have gone to the scrap heap. I'd hate to know how much that cost to restore but it made your car look like a gem! You're doing a great job and when you can drive, it will feel all the better.

@pril250 Год назад

Well pleased to finally see this positive progress, long awaited. Keep up the good work.

@richardedkins8856 Год назад

Love the videos on the Porsche. Just keep them coming Dom.

@darrencoyle3290 Год назад

I am enjoying watching you working away Dom, nobody appreciates the amount of work that goes into restoring a classic car until you see this..one bit at a time and it gives you something to plan for the next step and so on. Nice to sit back at the end of the day with a pint and reflect on the progress. Excellent and I can't wait for the next step..
