[@michaelschneider-]

+1 .. Heaven on earth. One Porsche said to another Porsche . . . . . .

[@charley22123]

Wow what a place and what talented staff you have , surely the planets most desirable showroom , shop , and for me place of worship . Thank you big time .

[@AceSeptre]

There are so many gems in this shop. Also probably the only place on the planet with MULTIPLE Group C and GTP cars for sale at the same time. The 962s, the NPT-90, Buick 85G, and Toyota HF-89. Not to mention all the 935s. You could literally stage a late 80s early 90s IMSA race from this garage.

[@michaelschneider-]

+1. Our '98 Carrera S coupe is at Canepa Motorsports I proudly say. Having ordered the 993 new back in the day .... I get to experience the coupe "as new" once more! .. How cool is that . . .

[@redtesta]

so envious. what an amazing life and joy you created for yourself.

[@gaugemix]

it just keeps getting better!

[@robtullius7540]

Wow ...what a great video of your awesome shop...thanks for letting us see your operation....outstanding

[@PetersenMuseum]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@olegstepcenko74]

So many 959’s in one place, amazing detailing restoration. Great please where legendary cars are reborn!

[@romans8forging181]

Wow...truly insane! You have been very blessed.

[@terrymarsh8094]

Thanks Bruce and the Peterson’s Museum for this video, Much appreciated

[@420people]

I let out an audible gasp when they showed the last Silver 959. Absolutely stunning.

[@ericswild]

How clean this shop is says it all...

[@nephimcknight5832]

993 GT2? You guys got the goods. What a dream it must be...

[@althejazzman]

I would buy a Canepa 959 if I could, and I don't even live in the USA. 950bhp on E85? Wow. That's a strong engine. He's right, they were 20 years ahead of their time in terms of the technology used, that we now consider standard.

[@420people]

This is the equivalent to walking into a hobby shop and gazing at wall of different options. Then choosing what you’d like to sink your teeth into.. just incredible. That last shot with the lifts is a dream sequence.

[@mattharvey78]

Those 959 SCs are beautiful. It boggles the mind to think how much doing one must cost.

[@donjuan150]

When I hear the name Canepa I think of 959! Thank you Bruce!

[@jonathankenny4443]

One of the most knowledgeable and passionate guys in the Porsche world. I could listen and watch him all day .. living his dream everyday .. wow imagine working there every day .. heaven

[@englishgearhead]

Truly the best historic racing/restoration shop in the US.

[@georgef1176]

Bruce thank you so much for sharing your amazing shop and craft

[@MrGTO-ze7vb]

Bruce put together a shop and auto collection that is one of the best in the world. His restorations are immaculate.!!! I met him back in 1985 when he had a shop in Santa Cruz modifying Chevrolet Blazers with superchargers. Now he has a huge building in Scotts Valley where Seagate Technologies used to be. I worked at Seagate during the 1980s.

[@ropi4524]

Bruce knows his stuff... 👍😉😊

[@tadejstanta8710]

I think this is the peak. Wow is the only word to describe this garage and attitude to cars, you can't say more

[@paulnichols7410]

I remember seeing some of those cars racing in the IMSA days at Portland. The Bob Tulius group 44 Jaguar. The 83 Nissan. What a great time in motorsports. What great memories, Thank you!

[@slavomirsemko5547]

I just can't say which of the cars I'd love to ride the most. All of them were my childhood dreams from magazines. They still are... :-) I'm happy they are preserved (hopefully) for the next generations... You got my utmost respect Mr. Canepa.

[@lasseellingsen4779]

I can listen to him for hours..

[@walterszczesny3619]

Bruce,very nice video! Well done!

[@cw9888]

This was the best Petersen installment so far, by far, and it was in large part due to Mr. Canepa and his obvious passion for these functional works of art. I could listen to this man ramble on about cars all day! And then you get to see all the legendary cars in such an impressive shop. Unreal.

[@ruipires7954]

That green 959 just floored me.My God,just when you think you've reached the Pinnacle.Out comes a green 959.Just outstanding!!!

[@allensaunders449]

I didn't know anyone reimagined 959s i love it the singer or ruf of 959s

[@michaelschneider-]

@Rui Pires .. +1. . The green exterior color of the 959 v. III is outta sight. . The red color interior is a hoot.

[@carlcondon5805]

THANK YOU FOR THE TOUR. WAS VERY INTERESTING. I WOULD SAY THAT 99 PERCENT OF US CAN ONLY DREAM OF WHAT YOUR ABLE TO ACCOMPLISH. THANKS AGAIN!!!!!

[@audreydavis7761]

Porsche heaven for sure

[@Vampirebear13]

I for one, could never get enough of seeing Bruce Canepa & his fabulous shop. He is The Master :-)

[@PetersenMuseum]

The best!

[@pappyodanial]

Excellent color choice on the 959.

[@ShimazuStudio]

I have to say, I was on the edge of my chair the whole time watching this. This is truly as passion this is not work but a dream come true. Thanks to Peterson and Canepa for sharing this and making my stay at home enjoyable and a blast.

[@PetersenMuseum]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@Twin_Flyer]

WOW!! What an amazing shop!! The 959 has been a favorite of mine since the beginning!

[@nickpappas4133]

As a retired Audi/VW/Porsche tech I really enjoyed this video.

[@Tmrfe0962]

Holy cow....thank you so much for allowing us to see this. What an extraordinary shop.

[@PetersenMuseum]

Our pleasure!

[@beyond_the_infinite2098]

I love when Canepa races Historic TransAm cars. I was especially thrilled to see him race the 1970 AMC Penske Javelin for the win at Laguna Seca a few years back. I know he's a Porsche guy, but he's a Rambler guy in my book.

[@Yojikman]

That is mind blowing!!! FANTASTIC.

[@Boomer850]

Just found these video, Wow there aren’t enough words. Would visit this place every week if I could, just to see the the history, automotive art, design and true craftsman. Brilliant.

[@lindasalgado2951]

That green on that Porsche 959 is so nice! Amazing!

[@HorsepowerIndustries]

me and my family visited this shop a couple of years ago and we we're blown away! we will definitely visit again soon!

[@suzettekirby2455]

Wow, great collection! Thank you for the tour.

[@PetersenMuseum]

Thanks for watching!

[@henrymorgan3982]

One of the coolest car videos I have ever seen! The historical value alone is priceless. Thank you!

[@michaelwyman5565]

This was a wonderful video. It made me day dream about car wish lists for hours. My Dad worked for Bob Akin and attended quite a few of his races in the 80’s. It’s was great to see all of those 70s , 80’s era Porsche’s. Thanks so much for the time Bruce!

[@PetersenMuseum]

Thanks for sharing!

[@animefan1929]

What a marvelous collection!

[@sonnybadyal7767]

I really liked your clean shop and awesome vehicle collection... those are some of the best/nicest Porsche 959's that I have ever seen...just beautiful! Thanks for your narrative on each vehicle threw out your video.

[@darrellgordon9224]

Watching this video I say "wow" so many times I have to stop and try to think of another word to say. Wow!

[@GS-fk8dw]

Mr Canepa, you're an honorable man. You have a great work ethic and take pride in the work that you do. It's a pleasure and honor to see your work and the pride you take in it. I hope to one day be able to afford a 959 from you.

[@michaelschneider-]

@GS 15 ... +1 Agreed...

[@mcwriter007]

Wow! The legendary Tom Shaughnessy Ford GT 40 garage find!!

[@MikesRestorations]

Bruce Thanks for sharing your incredible work and this awesome collection of cars with us. Your depth of knowledge is amazing! I really enjoyed!!

[@Grandmaster-Yas]

You are a legend Mr. Canepa.

[@micaeladempsey7885]

Spectacular collection! Thanks for sharing!

[@TheGreener121]

This legit is petrolhead heaven.

[@alohagoodbye8868]

It was nice to get a look behind the scenes of some of the restorations and customs of these cars.

[@Nonakame]

Fantastic tour! Thanks very much for sharing, really nice to be able to visit during these hard times. Really cool to see some of these cars again or for the first time. Thanks again!

[@330arr]

Oh look - it's heaven on earth

[@ryanhutchins5334]

Fabulous cars! What quality and craftsmanship.

[@PetersenMuseum]

Couldn't agree more!

[@kutzweb]

Love your cars Kip, glad you are close and we can see them often.

[@timaz1066]

OMG...I love this video and all of these Porsche's...I love Porsche's, what a treat! Thank You Bruce!

[@michaelpavan6700]

Thank you for sharing Bruce. Beyond that, I am just speechless.

[@douglasmcclaran5892]

Thanks for the guided tour of your cars, they are beautiful examples of rolling history. Some these cars I remember seeing being driven at Mid-Ohio and Watkins Glen when they were new. Its good to know that there are people who appreciate these cars and have the resources available to keep them in pristine condition so others can enjoy seeing them.

[@2HRenovation]

Everything in there is so perfect! OCD Car Heaven.

[@Ancient_Child]

This was a delight to watch. I can see why it's Porsche heaven.

[@melissatincopa9606]

What a wonderful collection of cars!

[@המכונהשבאופנוע]

I admire people like you!!! You also need the right team, that's for sure... what a pleasure to listen to you

[@niosanfrancisco]

Bruce defines Passion.

[@marcstephan7650]

It doesn't get any cooler than that ! I enjoyed my life restoring customer's cars but just one at a time.

[@ZEPRATGERNODT]

What a great video. I could listen to him all day.

[@PetersenMuseum]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@milenmi1]

Absolutely amazing!! I didn't know you can do this from A to Z. Especially on a 959. Wow.

[@mattpowe]

Just like the Petersen, a great place to visit if you are in the area. In fact, the two places are basically joined by the PCH, so a great drive if you are heading either direction!

[@JeffHaas-haasman]

Thank you Bruce for the detailed tours. Always fascinating to hear of the details, the extent of work.

[@PetersenMuseum]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@cromulentparty]

those 959's are something else.. I didn't realise Canepa brought them up to 800hp

[@allensaunders449]

Watched parts one and two perfection. Love the 959s

[@bendimson6460]

This is living for ones passion at its best, nice one Bruce.

[@mo-hammadabunaser1367]

Thank you for this amazing tour, this was even more fun than the museum tour! Love seeing these cars torn apart and reimagined!

[@educate8164]

gorgeous.

[@steviesindahouse4903]

Good morning everyone !!! And welcome Bruce !!! 😃

[@ProducerLare]

👍Beautiful collection! Thanks for sharing!👍 ... but a few questions: *”... is everything NEW?... everything restored?... everything rebuilt to new?...NEW?... NEW?!?”* 🤣😂🤣

[@jeffrosano4674]

Thank you Bruce...Would like to work in that shop.Fantastic quality of work.

[@UberPilot]

These videos are so great. Almost as great as the driving videos. After watching and seeing the money and time that goes into these cars I love my Honda. Like the guy with 300 cars.........has to be completely psycho.

[@hockeymann88]

23:41 Wow. Amazing car right there.

[@frontleftspeakerposse]

If you get the chance, go there. You can walk around the sale floor and show room, and might get a peak/tour of the shop.

[@kanjoracer4914]

What a Humble man . That would be an absolute dream to work there

[@johnnygoesfast9397]

Except you dont get benefits or a livable wage, but yeah...

[@michaelschneider-]

@@johnnygoesfast9397 .. Nonsense.

[@charlenemarcks7483]

I remember as a kid the Canepa Kenworth T600 that he put all these cool aerodynamic pieces on it. It was the first “aero” semi truck.

[@scottyskydog]

OMG! The Danny Ongais Interscope 935 Porsche! Awesome car and awesome driver!

[@domingodeanda233]

That was pretty damn good!

[@alsimmons9173]

this video could continue..and continue..i would watch.amazing.thanks for it.

[@PetersenMuseum]

More to come!

[@Mrmarginofsafety]

Amazing walk around historical race vehicles what a treat!

[@sibunit38]

Canape's garage is a DreamGarage & Shop

[@Rottie1973]

Really cool video. I love 959s and what they're doing to them is awesome.

[@gridrunner1319]

Amazing cars ....just amazing. With the recession, coming depression by a liquidity then insolvency crisis, I just might be able to get one of his cars in a couple of years. Those car prices are & will get just hammered. Save your pennies guys ....

[@carlosoruna7174]

Now that is one hell of a shop..

[@iammaximus614]

A True Enthusiast, Thank you for sharing

[@PetersenMuseum]

Thanks for watching!

[@csmarkham]

The CGT prototype blew my mind. You could do 30m on that car alone. On many of the cars there, actually. He's also done a Pebble-winning Dusey. Proves if the guys have the skills and the man can get the info, the shop can do anything.

[@csmarkham]

Also, that's the only time I've not seen any Cobras on the shop floor. Always seems to be a few around.

[@tommy911t]

911R with dice... Living life!

[@michaelschneider-]

@Tommy Tuite .. +1... I saw that ... Living large with a 911R... In the next life.

[@mittstewart5089]

Canepa is Awesome 959s are EPIC

[@joaoportesantava1412]

I wish I had the money to own a classic Porsche. I learned how to drive a manual on a 1.6L beetle and I wish it was a 911 because I just love it. I’m a legal Brazilian immigrant sense 1987 and I love this country. I worked carrying golf bags at Summer set country club in west Saint Paul Minnesota and I would carry two bags 18 holes twice a day. There was a member that owed a 964 and I would just stare at it when I was 13 going into work at 6-7am I love the restorations of these beautiful cars. I have no clue what color I would pick for the 964 if I could own one because they are all beautiful! What amazing work you guys do. I wish I could visit your shop one day. I have lots of health issues and maybe I’ll be able to stop by

[@nexrace]

just WOW
