The horn honking was the car cheering that it’s finally back on the road. Love to see this.
I think so too lol. The 993 soul showing it's joy and humor.
It was so happy to be driving again ❤❤ 😄
Damn this story hits for me… glad I found your vid and channel. Just like the owner of the 993 I lost my dad to cancer (came out of nowhere for him) 4 years ago. He raced Porsches in PCA and SCCA, had a number of different Porsches over the years but he kept a 77’ euro spec car that he imported himself in the early 80’s. The car has sat since the early 90’s, and it’s been in my garage the last 4 years… it runs and drives, but def needs some sorting.
Even if I never get the car fully sorted, I don’t see myself ever letting it go lol.
I'm glad you found the channel! I'm very sorry to hear the similar story tho.
If you ever want to ship it here for a video and get the car cleaned up just shoot me a dm on Instagram or email me 🙂👍
I purchased my 911 and had my elderly father come with me to buy the car. We flew to Boston for the day, enjoyed dinner and shared the experience together. This reminds me of that day. 🙂
Love that! Very glad to hear this story connect with other car enthusiasts and brings you to a special time and place!
Hopefully your subscribed and I'll see you around the channel 🙂

@@nolanohana awesome 😃😃👍👍
Amazing car story, amazing detailing & you can see how personal you take your work & you know how much that family car means to them. Keep up the great work 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
Thanks David! You definitely get it! Thanks for watching and definitely check out my other videos and especially the hyper car detailing vids! Be sure to subscribe if your digging the channel! New vids every Sunday 🙂
I am not sure how I JUST discovered your channel, I watch so many detailing videos as I am a detailer myself. Your gift for explaining all of the processes is so helpful and appreciated. Thanks for sharing your knowledge 🙏🏻
Thank you for watching!! I love when detailers watch my videos!
You will likely enjoy the gt4rs video and both gt3 touring videos!
@@STATUSDETAIL I’ll check em out now👍🏻
@@CryerMobileDetailing enjoy 🙂
Wow, awesome video!
Wow super cool to have JR Garage comment on one of my videos!!!
Appreciate the kind words 🙂
If you liked this you might enjoy the Bugatti Chiron detail video too! Also vids on Pagani hauyra, 918 Spyder, McLaren senna, McLaren p1 and many other cars!
Very moving. I shared it with my son while crying. Such a cool story in all ways. Thank you so much.
Glad you enjoyed it🙂👍
Definitely check out some of the hypercar detailing videos too!
The best Turbo generation of all times!
Agreed!
100%
This is a bucket list car, especially in guards red.
Agreed!
I really appreciate that you guys didn't try to talk or con him into selling it. Anyone else would immediately start making offers and try to take advantage of all of the issues to get it for cheap.
Not in a million years would I have done that! If your new to the channel definitely check out my other videos like detailing the chiron. Hauyra. P1. Senna. 918 etc.
Imm chasing passion driven detailing first not money. Had plenty of opportunities to make way more than I do now but turned them all down.
This was all about returning the car to the family and making it perfect! Nothing else crossed my mind 👍🙂
I have a $300.000 car. Where is it? Oh, it's in the barn. Crazy!!! :o
Lol. St least it was pretty good condition. Wasn't terribly difficult to bring this one back to life!
Dude you killed it! I think this had became my new favorite video from you. I hope this gets the views it deserves. All of your hard work will pay off soon. What a time capsule that car is. I hope the son cherishes that car. 10/10 video man!
Thanks! I think it's my current favorite video too! The son is definitely enjoying it and his daughter is in drivers Ed currently! So she will soon drive her grandfather's car after some brief manual transmission lessons.
Hi (again), you suggested I watch this video after a previous comment I made on one of your videos. A sincere comment, you have very special talents the videos are clear evidence, but what makes your videos really special is YOU. I appreciate your direct, simple, straight-forward honesty and patience. Thank you Mr. [insert surname here]
I'm Evan! I'm glad you enjoyed the videos and channel! I'll see you around the channel and thank you for the kind words🙂👍
His Dad would appreciate this 🙏
I think so too 🙂
Amazing story and job on this dream car. It looks so good. I'd love to see a follow up video on this car.
He's been driving it a lot!!!!
Maybe in spring we can get it in for a maintenance and update video!?
My dream car 993 turbo, beautiful car and a beautiful story. My dad had a red 944 porsche and he also passed away from cancer. Really hope they never sell the car and keep it in the family.
Thanks for watching!
Sorry to hear about your dad :(
Do you still have the car!?
Based on our conversations he plans to keep the car in the family!
Yes we still have the car. My brother has got it.
@@milkasta6046 awesome 👍🙂
Great video!! Terrific story. Greatest last Gen AirCooled Turbo. But background music volume must be lower. Piano was competing too much with your voice/story.
I agree music was to high. Frustrating because I screwed around with it so much lol. On my tv it is much louder. On phone it's better and on PC I edited on it was just right! Need to get better at that!
Glad you enjoyed the Story!! Be sure to subscribe for more cool car stories 😃👍
Agree!… Piano music was shocking, just ruined the video for me.
Single stage paint looks the best for solid colors especially black. Clear over black looks milky you will not see a true black unless you use single stage paint. The red on this car is quite amazing, a brilliant color for this car.
Agreed. Something special about single stage paint. The color on the 993 was incredible in person. The camera just about does it justice. So vibrant and beautiful. The quintessential color for a 993 Turbo in my opinion.
Super video and what turned out to be a real nice 993 Turbo Por-Sha.
🙂🙂👍👍
The car was honking itself in joy.
Haha that's right!
@@STATUSDETAIL Thank you for making this.
@@Khan_Art_ more incredible story's yo tell 😃🙂👍
What a fantastic tribute to the family and this 993. Porsche is as much about legacy and continuity of tradition as it is about the car itself, and your video captured this perfectly. Well done - says a lot about the work you do.
Greatly appreciate the kind words and Happy to see that the story is being interpreted the way I hoped it would be!
I absolutely love your attention to detail. I've watched a few of your recent videos and I'm hooked!
Awesome and thanks! I am working on the edit for the next video!
@@STATUSDETAIL Love to hear it! Stay on that grind.
What a beautiful tribute and what a find stunning looking car that is
It drives around often now. That's the best part
Awesome video 👍👍. Beautiful 993 ❤️ way better looking than any Porsche now days
Thanks for watching!
That car has definitely stood the test of time. After the amazing detail job, it looks as good today as it did new, especially that beautiful wing on the back of that car which harkens back to the days not long before this particular era of Porsche of the "whale tale". I saw one of these 993 Turbo's not that long ago going across I-64 in Lexington, KY in bright yellow and it looked absolutely fantastic. You could tell the owner took very good care of it.
That wing is definitely a beautiful Design!!
The owner definitely takes care of it. It sat awhile and the real problems were basically just from not driving. By no means was it trash or anything like that.
That $13,000+ mechanic bill was a shocker and that's AFTER the Porsche dealership had wanted to be a part of the resurrection of this vehicle. But as they say "if you have to ask"...... Well worth the money and effort to get this piece of Porsche history back on the road for not only the owner to enjoy driving, but for car enthusiasts to be able to see in motion, hearing the sounds, smelling the smells, etc.
@@joevanseeters2873 you hit the nail on the head with the last part of that comment. I wish I'd gotten a breakdown of what they did because they certainly did a lot I made a sound like they didn't do very much in the video.
It's clear this particular car with it's personal history has really moved you, that is evident and you did an amazing job. Dry ice cleaning underneath to enhance it's value, do you think....?
Thanks for watching!
To me detailing is really an art form. So I get the detail something that's special not only to the car community but also to a person because it has a personal story attached to it it just becomes a very special thing!!
Dry ice cleaning the bottom would definitely not hurt the value. But I'm not sure if it would improve the value. For the right buyer I could see them paying slightly more to know the car was like meticulously clean underneath. But many people wouldn't care so it's hard tell.
Beautiful story and great job on the detailing.
Thank you! I should actually have another 993 barn find coming lol
@@STATUSDETAIL can’t wait man, love your channel. Really wish more people had this much passion in their work.
Good video! The music was a tad too loud though.
Thanks!!
Agreed! On my editing setup it seemed ok but when watching on my tv it was definitely hard to hear things! I'll keep audio on the lower side next time around!
Thanks so much for sharing the story. Great job (as usual) on the detail. For a lot of folks cars are just transportation, it’s nice to see how people can come together over because of them.
Thanks David! Really grateful the owner let me film everything so I could tell the story!
this car is amazing. by every evolution, you see, it´s a PORSCHE. AND THE NEXT GENERATION, oh it´s more looking great as before.
The 993 looked so right !
Wow what an amazing video! Thank you for taking the time to do this. I'm an owner of a 1995 C2 and I have a part time detailing business that focuses on Porsche. I recently did a 79 Turbo Guards Red and this really hit home for me. Keep up the great work. Subscribing!

Would love to see an update video if possible; hows the car doing, how effective has the ceramic coating been in protecting the single stage paint from uv/oxidation. ... definitely wouldnt mind looking at some more b-roll of this beautiful car. Loved the video!
Car is great! Being driven often. Was even used in winter as a daily for a bit due to his daily being in a shop for a long time.
Amazing work! Thank you for sharing! The explanation of the paint correction for this 993 shows a lot of knowledge and experience of your great work.
Thank you 😃
Wow, Fantastic video!

Really AWESOME story, perfect delivery, and as a car lover, the emotion hit right in the spot 👌🏼❤️
The way you unfurl the story is really touching. My wife is a Porsche Ambassador and we are PCA members out of Colorado, I can attest that within the community of Porsche aficionados there are lots of cool stories, but this one is Ultra Special.

This was definitely a fun car and fun story! Figured the car community would enjoy 👍
Stunning and straight from the heart thanks 🏆
Definitely a heartfelt story about dads 911. This is what the car community is all about. Awesome family stories about cool cars!
Wonderful chronicle of an amazing car and the meaning it elicited beyond its brand for the family.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks for the awesome video
Thanks for watching it 🙂
Lots of other awesome videos on my channel. Check out my most recent upload of a turbo s that's new!
I have the same car. Same exact repairs to make. Horn, sunroof, turbo leaks and needs paint resto.....want to do another one?? Great video!
I'd love to do another! Are you in the Chicago area?
You can ship the car here if not.

Great edit, great music and great story. Awesome work which shows that that last 1% (99%->100%) can be only achieved by passion, which only a few are driven by. So far the best and the most inspiring video on your channel.
Thank you! I really loved this story too 👍🙂🙂
Great video. I’m kind of shocked that this 993 came from the factory with single stage paint
Not sure when it ended but typically the 993 is single stage and everything before it is too. I was really surprised the painted areas had been resprayed In Single stage. Makes me curious if it was done a long time ago or if the painter new what he was doing and was trying to keep it as original as possible?
Great video.. great story ..great job..
Thanks for the kind/encouraging words Mark!
Had a lot of fun making this story and figured the car community would enjoy it!

100% agree
Stumbled across your channel and loving the videos, music could be dropped as I’m more interested in listening to what you have to say. Very knowledgeable guy and I can feel your passion for what you do.
So glad you found Status! Music is so tough. So many people like it and people also don't always like it. My newer videos have very little music. So I think it's a good balance
Absolutely fantastic video ! And I think only true car enthusiasts will appreciate it . Thank you so much for sharing it .
Thanks Rob!
It was a lot of fun making this video and working on the car! Lots of car guys in the comments saying similar things so I must have put together a pretty good edit that tells the story well! It's definitely not always easy to do that but this one was special so I am. So happy to see comments like yours letting me know I did this one right 👍🙂
@@STATUSDETAIL absolutely fantastic job ! It touched me personally as my dad has a Porsche 991 Turbo S which will eventually one day be handed down to me . Thank you again .

Thanks Travis! Really tried to put everything I had into the overall production on this one. I still feel lots of room for improvement to make even better videos! Looking forward to pushing the vids and channel to the next level!
Beautiful car and stunning looks after the meticulous detail.
Thanks!
The 993 is the most beautiful turbo of them all. A mix of the 995 and later..

Perfect timing. Thanks. Edit: triple quadruple thumbs up.

Awesome story!
Gotta love a 993 Turbo Barn find!!!
My regards for you from Kuwait...
Thanks for the video
Thanks for watching 😃
I knew a guy back then 1995 who bought one of these brand new. I was gushing all over it and telling him how important it was as one of the last air cooled 911 turbos. All he did was shoot it down, telling me he hated it and it was riddled with issues.
It's a legend but in the moment might have been hard to see! I bet he looks back now and thinks different.... Or maybe not lol.
I've got a few 993s, I'd love to get detailed at that level!
Are you local to Chicago!?
If not you can ship them here. I have a new 992 coming from Ohio and a Tesla coming from GA next week!
My goal is to gain more cool cars and cars with stories from out of state so we can create content and deliver status details to anyone!

It was a joy to work on!
Just come across your channel and the 993 turbo is fantastic ! lovely work and interesting esp on the oxidized paintwork as im currently trying to sort my roof on my 1998 VW T4 Transporter as its flat black and very dull. So ive liked and subscribed keep up the good work !
Thanks for watching and subscribing Giles! I'm going to have to Google T4 Transporter now because I rarely don't know a car!
Hard bro 🏅🥇🏆🙏🏻😎

Damn, what a beautiful car. Guards Red 993 Turbo is one of my dream cars
Definitely goes down as a timeless and iconic car! I didn't get the 993 thing when I was a bit Younger but now I totally see it lol.
@@STATUSDETAIL Same here, I wish I would have scraped all my pennies together and got a big loan or something when I was younger.. before prices went insane. haha
@@2fast2nick would have made a boat load of money because they are so expensive now! Lol
Thanks!
Thanks for watching and for the Super Thanks!!!
Great job at bringing the car back. What kind of ceramic coating you use?
I like gtechniq ceramic!
Very nice, although you guys forgot to point the center wheel cap crests to the tire valves. Details I know. Porsche fanatics notice. Beautiful car, great job.
Is that a OEM thing? The tech actually put the wheels back on. We didn't do wheels off in this job for the detail portion. But I will certainly make a mental note of that even if it's not a oem thing. I just can't un read that! LoL
Beautiful car 👍
Agreed!
its crazy that 90's model cars are considered barn finds now.
Definitely! I think even a 2010 something could be a barb find if it's left sitting in a garage for 12 years covers in dust and leaking fluids.
I put the definition in one of the comments and it didn't have anything to do with age of car I think...
Thanks for watching 🙂
what an unbelievable story. awesome!!! whats crazy is im a prevoius car dealer prep dept mngr and detailer. ive been doing cars on the side since 93. my brother actually got a guards 97 993tt after his e46 m3. ive been taking care of the porsche since he has owned it. its under 25k now all o.e. parts that came with it all records and its just a great example. ive got it 1st place twice at hershey pca swap meet in its class and it hasnt gotten below 2nd anytime its been in a judged event. its such a bueatiful car but the paint is very finicky. we use all groits cleaners and a german 2 step glaze and sealer calld klass. it comes together in a gray and 1 red rect bottles. it works well and ive only clay barred it once. so my friend the job you have done here is absolutely stunning. i cant tell you how awesome it was to hear this story. i consider myself lucky to even drive and take care of him its a very special and now extremely valuable. since 2022 started there's been 6-8 993 turbos sold for 300+k.. this video will get watched many times by me so a sincere appreciation of this video my friend. please be well
Absolutely love comments like this! Grateful for viewer's like yourself that definitely "get it"
Sounds like the story behind your 993 is also very special! Especially with all the awards attached!
Definitely tricky paint! Polishing the edges on the back wing was a precious and scary time lol. Easy to burn paint on such a old car with mystery detail history.
So glad you enjoyed the video Gregory. I hope to have more stories similar to this to tell! I believe I might have the opportunity to tell a similar story on a Ferrari soon.
@@STATUSDETAIL I couldn't pull myself together enough last night but that story spoke to me extremely deeply because the reason I'm a car guy is my dad. I'm 47 and since I was three years old my dad got me subscription to every car magazine every toy car he drew toy cars he built me toy cars he bought me RC cars and just did so much with me and my brother and sadly he passed away before my nephew was born and he didn't get to do the same for my nephew and having the 993 turbo in this family would have just been really wonderful for him to see. I would trade that 993 for one more day with my dad but that story was just wonderful I will remember that my whole life so don't ever stop putting out content because you never know when it will have such a profound effect on somebody. Be well

Good job, beautiful car. I had a flat red car that could turn pink if not cared for.

Besides the 959 this is my second porsche
I'm a pretty big 911 fan. Love all the generations. Currently really like the 991.2 touring
What a great story and amazing automobile. Nice work and tribute. Are you doing a family reveal vid?
Thanks! I'm glad you enjoyed it!😃
I had planned with the owner to tag alone when his mom saw the car so we could film the reaction. It would have been so awesome to capture that but the logistics and schedule just didn't line up unfortunately! Maybe I film a wash and put some Audi over it of the wife and son telling stories about the car.... That could be cool!
My buddy had a similar 993 Turbo Black On Black. He put some HREs on it
Sounds awesome!
Porsche ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
🙂🙂
Nice video, but the piano background music made me fall asleep ;-)
Lol sorry about that
Anything to do about the rim rash on the back left tire.
Refinishing it
Dry sump and 5 years without running, add some minor external oil leaks, and that smoke is relatively normal on the first startup. The oil tank is located above the cranskhaft level, and it goes into combustion chambers by gravity, through piston rings, and after so many years without running.
I believe that's one of the things the tech explained. This was filmed awhile ago tho! So I don't remember exact details. What you described sounded pretty accurate tho 👍
Just discovered today your channel. Great video and story telling work! As you said, it's more than car detailing and I completely agree. Really enjoyed the videos watched. Wishing you all the best in your business and on YT. You've got all it takes! btw, you got a new Sub! ;-)
Thanks for subscribing!!!
Thanks for perusing the channel and watching videos! If you haven't seen the hypercars yet ... Go check those out!!
Beautiful story and superb car but may be a little more action time like action with voicing over the story. Thanks for taking the time to share
Thanks for watching! Appreciate the feedback! Always trying to improve 👍🙂
old video, so not sure if you'll see this comment. I was wondering if you ever have concerns with using a pressure washer for the first rinse on a really grimy car like that. When I wash my car after it's been too long, I always use a garden hose with a really light spray nozzle that has no pressure at all behind it just so I can get everything damp and get that surface level grime off there. Once it's been soaked down, then I move to the pressure washer and foam cannon. Am I being too paranoid, and using a pressure washer first is just fine? Just wanted to get the thoughts from a professional. Keep up the awesome work!
I do my best to respond to all comments 🙂
If your going to pressure wash them the risk is the same no matter what step. If you want to pre soak as you mentioned then use pre foams like carpro lift or gyeon foam. Or a strong apc and spray them do your rinse. 👍
Great video I hope it helps you grow your brand great piano music throughout the video.
Thanks Marcus! It's actually helped me grow a lot so far! Gained a lot of subscribers so far from it.
Including me
@@dynapak951rotti thanks for subscribing!! Means a lot in the early stage of the channel 🙂🙂
Fascinating! So off the top of your head, this car would require - just roughly - how many 6", 3" and 1" pads?
Hypothetically one of each if you continually wash them out. The main problem with this is when you reuse them right away you start throwing water all over the place and that's kind of problematic.
So if you want to avoid this around one pad per panel will definitely get the job done One pad per every two panels probably also works out.
I honestly don't remember how many I ended up using but it was a whole lot and I ended up throwing away a couple because they just don't wash out very well so they're kind of tie-dyed with red paint forever I keep some of those for weird things like tar residue removal on other cars but I'll never use them again as a primary pad on a car with multi stage paint.
You can polish single stage paint with a few pads if the paint's not very bad but when you're eating up all that oxidized paint that this car had you end up needing to cut way more which requires extra
