Wrecked Porsche 356 - (Episode 8) Door Frames and Windows

[@utahyork3338]

I like how Walter comes in, gets his minute of love and then continues with his day. Enjoying the work you do. Best 19 minutes of my day.

[@geerstyresoil3136]

I really find these mundane activities useful. thanks for posting them. I need to repair my window regulator and its funny how a simple video helps give me more confidence in self repair.

Nice article in the Registry magazine.

[@steveroark4023]

Amazing - it seemed like an impossible task up front. Crazy array of skills to bring it back to life - fabulous work!

[@BenMadisonTheDummy]

I'm loving this 356. So many people would have looked at that car as only a candidate for complete restoration and you have preserved it's story while at the same time making it as beautiful as it can be. It's a nice balance and you will proudly drive that one. I currently have a couple Austin Healey Sprites that I'm working on with the end goal of trading up to a 356. That's the dream anyway.

[@terylmadlem9558]

Amazing work . Great video. Looking forward for the mechanical restoration. Thanks

[@johnapel2856]

Nicely done. And the passenger side went a LOT quicker!! 🙄 I thought I saw Walter when you were working on the drivers side rear quarter window, and Lo and behold...Walter! Yay! Thanks, and Woof to Walter.

[@bryanlineberry5502]

I have learned more and enjoyed your video more than anything else

[@ianhardin1148]

Nice job welding that door. I wish I had the time/mentor/etc to learn how to weld.

[@WACRE44]

You made that car nice . Thanks nice job

Replaced all the rubber on my '68 beetle a couple of years ago...talcum powder can be your best friend when getting everything to fit again... :) Nice job!

[@mikedx2706]

Liquid dishwashing soap is a great lubricant too. I was wincing as I watched him forcing the rubber seal into the metal window frame on the doors.

[@benjireid798]

fantastic build

[@hevog]

Great job, as always! Now you can park the 356 outside with all the windows in and have room to work on the Landcruiser again :-) Looking forward to see you work on the motor and the transmission, will be pretty much like with the beetle, I suppose. You are definitely getting closer to take the 356 for a first spin. Thumbs up!

[@heliolps2]

Luv it, can't wait to see where you take from here.

[@pappabob29]

Impressive !!! Nice work on a "rarely ever fun" tedious job!!!

[@peterwilson3454]

magic ..well done

[@vwcoco]

Superb work again sir !! Love this Porsche and would own this one rather than a restored one !!

[@N4sir98]

Do you know if the person who previously owned the car is following your videos? It's gone through an amazing transformation already!

[@Jerod_Helt]

If so I hope they contact me. I would love to know the history of the car and the story on how it got damaged.

[@moudyblue]

You’re the man bro 👍🏻

[@ulysseslima9534]

Man, you did it!

[@originalblackplate]

Walter! ❤️

[@vayabroder729]

Wow; dealing with weatherstripping and trim is such a nightmare!!

[@javedmir7989]

Oh so tinted glass was not available? Love the original blue tint !

[@mafcawebmaster4237]

You made it look easy; I'm sure it wasn't. I went through many of the same steps restoring my 1959 El Camino.

[@vayabroder729]

Wow! A ‘59 El Camino! Those ‘59 Chevys are some of my favorite cars ever!!

[@mafcawebmaster4237]

@@vayabroder729 I found it in a storage yard where it had been sitting 22 years. rickblack.org/photos/Nemo_El_Camino.jpg Sadly, I sold it a few years ago. Had great fun with it.

Impressive window fitment and door gaps! Which Porsche concourse will be your first one for this beauty?

[@nathanratchford9996]

Boy the passenger side door was way easier!

[@TRyan-op2jo]

Out of nowhere, he breaks out the tig welder...ok. now it’s clear he’s not a hack! My son wants to know what you are listening to as you work. He hopes it’s old Van Halen. I’m guessing Buck Sexton.

[@N4sir98]

I too wonder what he listens to.

[@locosporlosvolkys7640]

Increíble transformación!, gran trabajo!

[@willfamily6326]

EPIC! Nice work

[@djambrosia]

My Karmann Ghia rear window rubber was exactly the same when I replaced it. It's amazing how similar they are in body and trim design. Out of interest does the Porsche have tacks used to secure interior trim parts?

[@Jerod_Helt]

I don’t think there are any tracks. But the cars are very similar 👍

[@Kraber50]

And that's all, but it's not finished yet

[@TylerBigHead]

Hey if I just have to replace the liner on one side how hard is it to do

[@TylerBigHead]

Sorry the felt strip and metal has came up on mine

[@DEMOGarage]

How do you not constantly drop those tiny screws? That always happens to me.

[@Jerod_Helt]

I drop them all the time. I just edit it out 👍

[@jimzucker]

so let me understand, you are not going to bondo/repaint this car right?

[@Jerod_Helt]

Correct. I'm not painting it. I'm driving it as it is

[@ronpackwood8772]

👍👍✌️

[@badvoiceallnoise]

driver side looking kinda sus

[@grassnap2118]

I don't know why he fixing all things before painting

[@steven6692]

I don't care how he thinks...that car should have been painted before assembling...period.

[@rickydee9761]

I'm sure he will have his reasons mate, more than likely to get the shape of the windows correct and to help structural rigidity
