It always makes me happy when people are willing to save these cars, where others may scrap them. Looking forward to the reviving process.

Currently resurrecting a 73e in similar but less rotten condition. Front suspension area is my first rust repair. Will follow you as I progress. Thanks

I'm very excited to watch this project progress! I recently acquired a 67 912 with similar levels of rust and rot, looking forward to learning and watching your car progress

Nice job! Just starting into a very similar amount of rot on my '78 too, looking forward to following along!

You're a brave man to take that project on. Any idea where that rusty car came from?I'm amazed people are buying certain old Porsches. Back in the day people stayed away from certain models. Apparently they are all valuable now.

Mike , if you want to give the car a little more support when you cut the floors out you can run a few 2X4 under it and use jack stands just to give you piece of mind . If you use T25 torks head screws. You can get creative and then unscrew everything when your done and reuse the wood.

I need to be able to flip it on its back to do the floors so can’t do that.

@@rennch. you could do the floors form inside or underneath, but it has to be a bit lifted from the ground for it to be done underneath

This looks like a blast, oh you already blasted it. Well this 69 look like a real puzzle, as I am puzzled why you do this to yourself. But it looks like it will be another fun journey to watch you work through while I search for the perfect 12 year old single malt to pair with this build.

Wow, that's a serious amount of rust - the holes around the rear suspension (torsion bar tubes) area are particularly worrying. Wonder how it looks inside - I guess you'll find out?! I think you'll almost be building a new car from scratch. I assume you've got some sheet metal from restoration design for the more straight forward sections?

I think you could convince Miller or Lincoln to send you a welder with a few emails detailing your likeminded fan base that would absolutely eat up some welder marketing.

I’m building one on my channel now. I thought it was rough until I saw your project. I feel your pain. I’ve been building cars for 30-40 years but just started my first vintage 911. Thanks for the tips came by your car at SEMA late one day but missed you. Looks great. Get a chance check my channel out and the 911 build

I suspect you are planning to change/move the bracing as you progress through the work. As it stands, about 1/3 of the car is fixed to a dimension. I kinda like the 2 x 4 comment as temporary day to day support. On and off, just like that.

When you have that kind of chassis, time to switch to a sport build.

This reminds me of my 911, and I haven't had the pleasure of even sandblasting it yet. Just from stripping the car so far it's a basket case.
