550 Porsche Spyder Needs A TON of Work Engine Mock Up and Fabrication Speed Racing Kit Car Replica $

@MerlinsOldSchoolGarage is building his 550 Porsche Spyder kit car replica and he has not done much to it yet. There is much more fabrication and mock up to complete before he can proceed with gluing the fiberglass. He has special plans for this car so he will need to take speed and racing into consideration while completing this build.
Thank you for watching.

Congratulations Kieran! You were a absolutely stunning bride! Merlin, you didn't look too shabby either! I send many well wishes to you & your new husband for a life full of love & laughter! Jennifer in Kansas (Wade's wife)

[@kimetherington2252]

Cool wedding, congratulations to the Bride & Groom! Merlin, your new projects are always a pleasure to watch! I don't know if you call this Porsche a kit car, it won't be when you're done modifing it! Anyway whatever you call it, I have no doubt it will be exactly what to want it to be! An eyestopper for sure! Catch you on the next. ✌️ 😊

[@Paul-fl1fy]

Congratulations on the wedding. And love the Porsche project

[@kenfrazier616]

beautiful daughter on her special day. great progress on the 550

[@paulshannon4576]

After seeing your shop, Fab Rats, Chads, Matt’s and others on KZbin I have a theory. Shops are like closets, no matter how large or many at some point they get filled up.

[@schnell356]

Just adding in the headlight buckets gave the whole front end the start of it's personality. Cool build and a lovely daughter!

[@jrmrencso8716]

A lot of work done on the 550, and you got the daughter married off, that's good progress!

[@Ralph94967]

Congratulation to your daughter and her brand new Husband stunning Bride

[@rolandtb3]

Congrats on the wedding cameo with the model T. The Spyder will be a web of intriguing challenges.

[@trfinley7076]

The 550 Spyder is one of my all time favorite dream cars. That is going to be an awesome project. I hope you bring us along on the full build and your first track day with it. The Giant Killer will stalk the tracks again.

[@Terry-lu2dr]

Love the Shotgun Wedding photo.

[@TurboDog73TX]

A very kool project. I'm interested to see it all finished and raced!

All the other channels use a grinder to cut sheet metal. Finally somebody like me using the plasma. Like a knife, just need a guide.

[@MerlinsOldSchoolGarage]

yes 🙌

[@mr.nobodythewall3215]

Merlin, thank you for inspiring me, and gain trust in people again. Not only did you give me back my Shade Tree mechanic you put a warm spot in my heart. I was in your neighborhood picking up a muffler for a friend's VW bus. Had to go by your place. Love the Cummins boat. Thank you for being you....

[@michaeltablet8577]

Absolutely Awesome!! Congratulations on the marriage! God bless you all and give you a lifetime of joy!

[@user-sy9mo5yx9x]

I seen a late 40’s international tow truck for sale in Wickenburg and thought of you. lol

[@BFK78]

Huge congratulations to Mrs. Kierin!! She looks absolutely beautiful! Really cool of Craig and Sue to bring you that Pepsi machine, too. This little 550 project is going to be cool. One of my favorite euro cars from the 50’s next to the Gullwing.

[@user-tq1lh5ut4h]

Congratulations on the wedding and the project looks really good You're one of the best builders I've ever seen Merlin

[@gtoscowork]

She was a glowing happy Bride! Congratulations 🎉🍾

[@jeffwiltshire7817]

What a happy event, congratulations all. How about putting the doors on the hinges and letting Robbie sort it. That would be a snap for him. Looking forward to seeing this build unfold. If you are stuck Jerry could help you. This is his favourite car. Jerry Seinfeld that is. About time he picked up a spanner. Thanks Jeff. Sydney Australia.

[@craigbowley6783]

Very cool Merlin. Your daughter looked gorgeous! And you shined up pretty nicely yourself. Wishing your daughter and her new husband a wonderful life ❤

[@stephenpoe2037]

The epitome of cool. Love that car you're building.

[@jamesmatheson5115]

Ive always liked the idea of retro fitting a 550 Spider body over a Porsche Boxer.

[@markglenn4929]

She was a beautiful bride. Congratulations

[@rhondasweeney7271]

Congratulations to the Newlyweds. Merlin, this build is gonna be out of this world. Can hardly wait until it gets completed and on the road. Thank you for sharing this build.😊

That was a unique wedding. Love her dress!

[@carrollrickard9684]

Congratulations Merlin, man you clean up pretty good. Congratulations to Kieran and her new hubby. You amaze me in your knowledge of building a car from scratch. Watching you and Paul Cox doing all this fabrication makes a man want to go out and build something. Will be waiting for the next chapter on this build. Stay safe and God Bless.

[@SirensC3]

Merlin is having the kit car blues. I feel for ya buddy. I know exactly what you are going through.

[@darrendoolan4906]

That looked like a fantastic day and arriving in style congratulations Kieran on your wedding, can’t wait to see the end result of the Porsche

[@ateamoffroad1179]

Congratulations, it's always a blessing to add to your family. We wish them all the love and happiness.

[@MichaelSmith-jv7zm]

Congratulations to the newlyweds and that 550 is going to be sick. And if that body isn't sponsored I wouldn't shy away from telling the truth of any fitment issues. That way if you end up encouraging someone to build one they know ahead of time.

[@MerlinsOldSchoolGarage]

it was not sponsored I paid full retail and I plan to disclose all the problems I find in the end.

[@MichaelSmith-jv7zm]

​@@MerlinsOldSchoolGarageThat's great, I figured that from watching you and the other KZbinrs you collab with. And family with. Love the content.

[@mattthescrapwhisperer]

The shotgun in the wedding photo was a nice touch 😁

[@Vidar.m]

Paint it silver and the words little bastard on the rear. 😂😂

[@donwilliams3626]

Modify on the fly. Snip and assemble. This is custom kit style engineering! Looking forward to seeing you zip around the track.

[@vm6418]

Hand built Porsche spider car that's very special. Nice job!

[@arvifulgencio3745]

You have work in so many dune buggy lately. The Porche is just a gorrified Volkwagen Beetle so it would be a piece of cake

[@craigsouthern5089]

What a fabulous build in progress. Merlin for the win,you pulled another few rabbits out of your hat in this video. Congrats to your daughter an better half. Love the channel. Keep up the great work. ✌️👍🤙🤙😁😎🍀🍀🍀🍀🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲 🪄🪄🪄.

If I know you Merlin your going to Build a BadAss Porsche❤ I can only imagine how BadAss it's going to be whenever your done with it Merlin.❤

[@Nobody_Important_Yea]

Greetings from Long Beach and Topock. Really like that you show so much progress in your videos instead of tagging us along. Thanks for your content and hard work.

[@theuglytruth8162]

Happy to see Merlins or a pocket full of washers. 😂

[@robertr4193]

The Porsche Spyder kit it coming along looking good so far. Should be a real fun car to drive once you are done.

[@Kristof-Kay]

its amazing watching you building this, stage by stage, your knowledge is impeccable, so glad im here to see it all happening, thanks for sharing

[@kennethmenges5707]

The model t at the wedding is great. You have a beautiful daughter and now a son in law. Hopefully a grandson that will continue the legacy. Congratulations to your family.

That was so awesome for driving your Model-T to the wedding (a showing us a snippet) 👍👍

[@calvinlevie943]

Thank you. Tremendous episode, on your carbuild . You are tremendous automotive person . Plus every thing else you do has that expertise touch . Keep on making great entertainment and video's they are great. Thanks for inviting us along for your excursions

[@andrewceulemans9696]

Crispy autumn day early morning hot lap around the local road course . 😎

[@tracyspencer507]

Fun stuff setting up doors, I suicided my 29 pickup doors and replaced all the wood with steel. I built the doors from door skins and made power windows work in the inner door boxes I made. Lot's of T&E (trial and error)....😊

[@davehollingsworth3007]

The Bride was absolutely beautiful as was your bride Merlin! The Porsche is going to be a beautiful addition to your fleet! It will be a solid, well built car that should give you and your wife lots of fun going to cruise inns ! I remember when I was young, a girl I knew, her dad had an original Porsche Speeder back in the 60's. Wanted it bad but didn't have the $700. that he told me he would sell it to me for! LOL! Those were good times! Thanks for a great video! P.S. That's a way better chassis than the original! Keed up the good work~!

[@glenludwig5135]

Omg. Congratulations on your wedding. Look forward to the whole video. Hopefully!,,

[@donaldwilson84]

I am so glade to see that I am not the only person that has to fight with thangs , do one and and still have a problem with the other side.

[@boblister665]

It's a kit just put it together like a model car right ? We wish life was that simple. I got involved with helping a friend trying to build a Cobra replica, similar challenges nothing fits as it should. Looked like a nice wedding with select friends and family instead of a stressful waste .

[@J-D..]

Love the Porsche build Merlin coming on nicely send our congratulations to your Daughter and her husband from us 🎉 keep up the good work 👍

[@jodywells7519]

Gotta ask! Why such big pipe ?congratulations on the wedding! Beautiful bride

[@chocotaco8929]

Congratulations Kieran

[@billtruett8593]

You’ve got to know having the best viewers means that you have one of the best channels and the content is always fresh !! Such a down to earth viewing channel 😎

[@AllSpeed]

i have a dream of building one of these into a Safari 550.

[@marklar7551]

Time lapse fabrication is so nice Merlin. I love the Pepsi machine idea (always have) and that machine is '80s so there is a way to bypass the slot and have it dispense for free. Also thinking of anyone could bypass the lock latch...its you 👽🗿👽🗿👽

[@stevevanpatten1372]

One that I've Learned about Fiberglass part's. They never fit like they are soppose to fit. You have to Rework them ti fit right if you want them to be Perfect.❤

[@douggrenard91]

Really enjoyed this video, love the VW work.

[@sethleeke8666]

Congratulations on the marriage to Kieran and her husband! May god bless your awesome family! Very cool ride to the wedding with a not to shabby guy! 😂 Merlin looked pretty spiffy if I must say. Great content from MOSG as always!
