1995 Porsche 993 Carrera Restored After 4 Years Underwater

[@richardswiecki1248]

It's not a restoration but a resurrection. Good on you. Beautiful.

[@shelbygtsoo]

This is one of the most dramatic restoration I have ever witnessed in my life and is a great testament to the quality of Porsche and the superior out of this world craftsmanship of the restoration team

[@NZotyoka81]

I already saw way worst than that. One of my childhood friend is a bodyshop worker and he has worked on a few cars already what were in such a bad state that average people could not imagine. The hardest misson is when you just can’t get those body parts anywhere what has been completely disappeard from the erosion. They literally have to manufacturing them by hand. European car restoration industry is the best in my opinion because these people have the skill, passion and patience to overcome all thoes difficulties what is constantly coming up along the process.

[@limoncellaprojekt]

It goes well beyond what you have very well pointed out, this 911 is a miracle on 4 wheels, being a matching number example of car remained underwater for 4 and half years and then come back on her original chassis, engine block, crankshaft, camshafts, cylinder heads, valves, and many other parts.

[@gillesgnd4885]

It was a chalenge, just only for the engine and thé gear box..... Congratulations.

[@macbirt56]

How many different yellow 993's did they use for this post? Cause I see 4 different styles of rims? I am inclined to distrust the honesty of the post because of that fact. Let the haters begin hating me now, for my powers of observation. 😂

[@felixcat9318]

Ah yes, the Porsche Posiden 993 Carrera! This was a truly remarkable recommissioning, a true Labour of Love! There have been numerous vessels, including Ocean Liners which were recommissioned after having previously being sunk, but I had never before known of a car recieving such treatment. What a truly unique history, one which is incomparable to any other car...

[@limoncellaprojekt]

most definitely, Captain!

[@richardbell466]

Wow. Amazing dedication. And you kept the same original colour. Bravo!!!!

I REALLY hoped they would have had a short videoclip with sound about the first time the engine was started. That must have sounded amazing.

Absolute dedication to your trade. I can’t believe what you have done with it. I would have loved to been there when you turned the key for the first time. My hats off to you.

[@Jim-ro5sl]

That's absolutely unbelievable. Seriously I'm looking at it and I still can't understand how that could be done.Thats just nuts.

These guys are freaks of nature. Crazy good. Bravo!

[@SuperCommando60]

wow so much left unsaid. Why was it in the river? Why was it left in the river for so long? Who was the owner when it went into the water? What was special about this car that it should be rebuilt...restomodding an existing driving car would have been much easier and cheaper. The 'story' we were promised at the beginning was never told.

Very cool video. However, for all the images and great work,for me, the one moment that sums up the heart of the man that accomplished this task is at timestamp 2:30. Sacrificing one's own toothbrush and converting it into a vital tool of automotive restoration brilliance is a true car guys. 😏

@@citizaniac149 Porsche started using galvanized steel for the 911 shell in the 1970 D-series model, utilizing it for the underbody. In 1976 Porsche progressed to using it on the full shell, bar the roof, then finally the whole vehicle in 1977.

I suspect it was submerged in cold fresh water not salt water.

[@cf6282]

Amazing effort!

[@paulmitchell8706]

If you start a restoration job like this, then you have to have the willpower, energy, drive, and go for it attitude to finish it and see it through to the bitter end. That would mean endless searches for parts, probably worldwide.

[@BITTYBOY121]

You so deserve this Porsche ! - You worked very hard for hours, days, weeks, months to bring this beauty back from the dead, carefully restoring every inch bit by bit with no costs spared ! - All I can say is WOW ! - What a contrast to how it was before !, Well done - Loved watching your video - Much respect from the UK - Fabulous result ! 👍👍👍

Im sure this restoration costed more than a good used car. Twice.

[@dr.curious5136]

Sure maybe, but Porsches generally cost twice as much as other cars. Your problem is you lack the passion or the understanding of something like this. It’s not about the money, it’s about doing something that people like yourself couldn’t or wouldn’t do. There is 1 percenters out there and they are special for a reason. It’s ok you belong in the other 99% .nothing wrong with that and that’s why you couldn’t understand

You can only undertake this work if you love your job and want to "test" the "skills" you have acquired in it on a project like this. Anything else would be financially pointless, as you can already get "DRIVING READY" vehicles for the price of this "restoration". Nevertheless, it is a masterpiece in terms of the "skills"!
