This weekend I discovered that GoPro in freezing weather does interesting things
I was wondering about that!
I was wondering what was going on there in the video.
Lol I thought it was my phone till i tilted it 😂
Candy colour respray car project?! with sparkles :P
It looked like you were in Pompei and the lava drops were coming down on you.
Hoovie sees the potential with so many cars…. The potential to lose money 😂😂😂
yet here you are helping the funds with a view on one of his videos 😂
But the Weeeeezaaaard makes a bunch... 😁
A crappy one gives the most content, is more educational and is funny to watch the Wizards little brain chips fry a little bit. Because there is no reason on earth to not break these poop boxes for parts and make pretty good money.
Unless youve a channel...
its a lovely way for even professionals to train at leisure on how rarer more expensive non everyday cars slot together.
Whilst laughing at hoovie being truly bloody clueless as to what he buys, following the formula of learn nothing more than "ooo these are good cars when theybwork, isnt it "odd" "complicated" "pretty" or top end mercedes.
One day i expect to see a flying lemans or DTM c car in that collection too...
Imagine he drives one of those into the wizards . ..
Can you even buy one?
Not losing money making content with it..
Hoovie’s loss is the Wizard’s gain.
Can't wait to see the towing reviews with these new to you Porsches!
Right the question is how will they compare to the Apollo 911's low end torque and is LS swapping the way to go for you towing porsche? 😆
Thanks Tyler for saving another old Porsche, the Turbo deserved another chance. Looking forward to seeing it brought back to its former glory. You have inspired my projects and CZcams channel, saving old cars that nobody else wanted to save (even if some are serious moneypits or even if they had to be rescued from an overgrown jungle). Given how new cars are going, it justifies saving a lot of the older ones particularly from the 1990s and 2000s.
"Looking forward to seeing it brought back to it's former glory"...you came to the wrong channel for that my friend😂😂 I mean sure the Wizard and his boys will get the thing road worthy once again, but Hoovie usually doesnt do ground up restorations for cars like this, he saves that for the much older classics.
You know he's going to blow up the engine right! Otherwise he would have no content for his channel. That's what he does to Porsche's.
@@jbm0866 It will at least be in a condition that it will run again. After all it is a 20 year old car that was an ex-rental, it won't be perfect but better than what it currently is.
"Maybe we can bring you home and save you." Because this is ALWAYS 100% the case on this channel.
Smartest channel on CZcams
I think he's planning to flip it. There's a Florida man he knows looking for this exact car.
Edit: Maybe not. Didn't realize it was a tiptronic
Thats what my wife said about me...
things you car say about a car and a ho.... emmm lets stop there.
I saw your comment and thought for a split second, "I don't remember making this comment."
I love the new orange 911 Targa. It is very appropriately patinated. I love that they kept the holes in the engine cover from when the whale tail was removed.
Perfect spots for the Hoovie circles.Maybe it whistles too?
I’m from about 30 minutes east of Eureka, and learned to drive on those roads. You can imagine my boredom the first time I drove through Kansas!
There's another one in Florida for only 1k more but with 135k miles. Clean Carfax too.
This is the real reason I still follow you, unlike other CZcamsrs, you still keep true to your roots. Hoover, buying Hoopties.
You still buy something many of us can buy, and eventually flip (or shoot our money down the drain😂).
Really LOVE the channel. Long life to Tyler.
Still pulling content = profit
Seats were definitely swapped, I’ve never seen a turbo without the hardback sport seats. I have a set if you’re looking for them, they need a bit of work but can give you a good deal.
I'd guess the supple leather is way more common to see paired with a Tip, which itself is in the minority.
There are some turbo 996 Porsche that don't have hardback but i think they did swap them
My 996 Turbo doesn't have the hardback sport seats.
Supple leather 996 turbos are everywhere…
Sport seats and hard back seats were separate options in these 996 turbo cars. Many Tiptronic cars shipped with the standard comfort seats.
There's just something nice about having something you don't have to baby it to keep it mint because it's used & worked on alot. I would feel much more comfortable doing a cross country driving trip with this used beater than I would with a car that's fresh off the dealership lot.
I live in NWA and love it. Love your videos that you get old cars running and driving.
My god I love old Porsches. so glad you did the Targa the way you did. More old Porsche content please
Spicoli has come so far with his father's ultimate set of tools.
🤣
I just got my first Porsche 2 days ago. 2002 Seal Gray Metallic C2 Cab 6 speed with 120k miles. I love it so far.
Hoovie your attitude for shit boxes is the best. I thoughtfully enjoy every video.
At 13:33, 15:43 & elsewhere.
Was that Euro-Asian Bob getting back at Hoovie by warping time & space for being besmirched? He does seem to have that power, going back in time to find time capsules and the like.
Funny the timing.
(We need to hear about the Greyhound bus fight, please.)🚌
I thought I was having a stroke lol
"I'm an automotive masochist that likes to rescue hoopties" hold up, I thought this was a towing channel?
One of your best videos who the! Loved seeing the dealer front end and then the purchase and evaluation!
I makes my heart glad to see a 911SC resurrected and enjoyed. I have an original 1983 911SC Cabriolet with the factory-installed aero kit. If you like the look of the chin (front) spoiler, great. Maybe you already know this but from an aerodynamic standpoint, the front and rear spoiler go together to help hold the car to the road better.
Tyler, I very much enjoy watching your videos; keep up the great work! I enjoy seeing both new car content (touring car museums, manufacturing plants, and when you buy or review newer cars) as well as you saving cars.
The video is melting at the Targa engine presentation 😅
I had an S-Line a6 2.7t, years ago. I honestly didn't hate the tiptronic. You learn to time your upshifts a half second early, and once you nail that delay, it becomes fun to use. I remember the downshifts being almost instant, so if you needed to pass, you just tossed the stick over and down and zoom around the slow guy lol
Ive had one tiptronic car and i also thought it wasnt that bad.
Tiptronic actually suits this 911 Turbo. The engine has so much torque you don't need a fast / manual shift unless you are using it as a track car.
It's actually a good thing these initially came with slushmatics for the automatic version. It would have been worse if it had the sequential automated manual transmissions that most other supercars had at the time. In everyday cruising, stop/start traffic and freeway driving you wouldn't want clunky shifts.
Agree. Gotta time the upshifts but you definitely pick up on it fast
tiptronic became popular when I was learning to drive stick, tried it on a new (at the time) altima which threw me for a loop because it was down to upshift and up to downshift so I'd accidently try to downshift to hit third but that thing didn't accept your prompt to shift half the time anyways lol
Thank you Tyler for doing a video on all Porsche! Love it! You are kicking butt and it is great looking forward to the next car. May have to get a shirt from you for Christmas, nice content.
Porsche of Wichita: “Here comes Hoovie again; show him right to the discount rack.” 🤑
I forgot about you sending off that Porsche to be redone. It turned out better than I would have thought. He is really talented. Plus great deal on the Vegas Porsche can not wait for next video. Not sure if it was the video or me that got blurry towards the end. Thanks
Hoovie probably also forgot if I had that many cars I'd have to keep a book or whiteboard on where each car was 😂🤣
What is going on with the interior shots at 13:32? Did the camera melt or something?
I just started getting into your videos, and what fun they are! Love the projects that don’t make sense (but for crazy people like us watching you on CZcams). I also love that you’re a true car guy doing this in the heartland! As a KC guy it’s fun seeing you driving around places like Wichita or Eureka Springs, AR. Great job on the old 911 Targa!
Thanks Tyler. Loved this video. Got a thing for Porsches and it was lovely seeing your family asleep on the journey too.
Hi Tyler! Been watching you since the beginning with Apollo 911. You are doing awesome. Congratulations on all of your success and thank you for posting so regularly. I like watching your escapades in the car world. 😁👍🏻
Very cool ghosty 👍
11:46 I was taught first gear is too low and you should bump-start in 2nd
I always used 2nd as well
Man this would make an awesome winter beater . Safe, fun. Wish I could find a deal like that.
That Targa looks amazing! Definitely one of your best Hoopties. Slap a stereo in it and go drive, ignore the rest of the issues. It will never be perfect but it sure will be fun!
What happened when Tyler Hoover came home unshaven, grinning like a maniac, and covered in glitter? 😀
Good video. I had an orange/tangerine 1971 911T, 2.2L Targa in S trim with the dogleg 5 speed back in school. Loved it so much I got a 1980 911 SC Targa in red. Agree the K jetronic had to go. Wish I’d carbed my second one. Sold it 20 years later with 80K on the odo.
I enjoy how so many times Hoovie gets the experts to explain what was done. Not that I would ever attempt any of this with my "newfound knowledge, " but it's still fun learning.
A car dealer's dream...having Hoovie on speed dial.
My mom had a lime green 73' Targa when l was a kid. When l was in high school l could push it out of the garage and down the alley to sneak it out. We had it until the early 80s but one thing l remember was we replaced those door speakers w/ speakers from a small set of bookshelf speakers that l believe came out of Bose 301's. They fit the factory cuts in the door. They sounded great w/ the old blaupunkt radio.
I love what you’ve done! Years ago, I use to sell parts for old Volkswagens. I even own a few. People often spent more than the car was worth, but so what? It was their passion. I went back to college, and no longer work on cars other than my own, but fixing up a car isn’t about flipping it. It’s about bringing a vision into reality.
Run start - put it in 2nd, otherwise the compression stops it too fast.😁
4:34
Man that was too close for comfort for me....
I think Hoovie perfectly described my automotive altruism in the sense that I'm always looking for something older that I can revive myself. Maybe sometime in the future I'll sell off a couple of mine once they're done and find a derelict 911 to fix, and finish it off with that nice shade of robin's egg blue I saw on those newer 911s.
Congratulations! I’ve been looking for one in similar shape to use as a track car. You found one much better than any I have found.
I think people look for Hoovie to unload 💩on and usually comes out like a 🌹
After seeing the targa in person at Palooza, it’s great to know how well it drives and even better to see how much you appreciate it. Thanks for resurrecting a classic.
Love to see it! Too many of the 70s and 80s 911s were lost when they got cheap. Taking my '87 Targa down to NW AR next week!
I’ve been waiting for the update on this car! So happy that you made the choice to bring it back to life and not make it flashy! Such a cool car! Absolutely jealous!
The old targa might be my favorite project you’ve ever done! Such a cool car as it is now.
Love the new project! Given the rental history, hope ur budgeting for interior decontamination & new seats.
That engine bay has a strong 70's vibe.
Leonard did an awesome job 👏
Their line about needing inventory was Sales 101, taking it away from you to get your juices going!
Great Choice with that Porsche i loved the Classics 911s the wierdness in those body styles is so amazing and unique
It’s probably blue flake mixed with the clear. I’ve seen it done on driveway paint jobs to add “class”
I have a 997 turbo manual. I think it is a better car than the 996 and not just because of the lights but both rank among the greatest cars ever made. They have mind bending performance but can easily be used as daily drivers and with the back seats down they will take plenty of luggage. I even got a full set of golf clubs and trolley in the back once. The acceleration is amazing but the best bit is that they take corners at ludicrous speeds. I retired recently so sadly mine is going to be for sale once I sort out an electrical gremlin. I have had it for six years and have loved every second driving it.
Thanks as always Tyler for showing the best parts of Arkansas. So many people show only the bad parts.
If you stay north and west of US 67, Arkansas is actually a pretty nice state. Rather than continue South on Arkansas 23, I actually prefer going east on Arkansas 16. The road between there and Clinton Arkansas is actually more fun to drive than the Pig Trail. Much less traffic, many more curves, lots of mountain vistas, and probably more wildlife than automobiles. You'd better have your tank full before you attempt it though, cuz there's not a lot of civilization in that part of Arkansas.
@@michaeltrace1109 That is hilarious, I actually went to school just outside of Clinton. I grew up on those roads, HWY 16 up through Shirley, my parents still live there!
@@DashnCars , then if you like driving I'm sure you like that road too. Unless you are actually trying to get to Fayetteville from Clinton in a timely manner!
@@michaeltrace1109 those are the best, so many hidden roads around Mt View area
your love for the 996 brings me back over and over again!
Truly appreciate the correct pronunciation of the word Porsche.
911 looks nice gets up and go's looks like a keeper
It's always awesome seeing something happen near my area. I drive those same roads, but come at them from the south. What camera/lens are you using? I always have trouble getting a good sense of speed when looking forward.
I love the metal flake bass boat style paint. I would repaint the faded top panels to match and leave it that way.
Love the new effects when you're checking out your rebuilt Porsche.
I love what you did with the Targa. That convertible conversion was an abomination. $30k for that car is great. I love just like it is… now.
About that gearbox; if it's the merceders unit, there's an UK company that does transmission tuning. Might help with the sluggish shifts.
I'm so EXCITED to see you fixing this car. Its gorgeous. It looks really fun to drive. I wish i fit.
❤️❤️❤️ thank you for saving this hooptie
Ah Hoovie, never change! Wizard and the crew need to eat too. Keep spending!
Definitely keep the lid with the speed holes in. They're easily worth 5hp each
Loving the trippy effects!
Best 911 towing test to date! Thanks Tyler!
Bring her back Hoov. I love the way you resurrect high end cars that idiots destroy. She'll fit right in with your fleet. Comfortable automatic. Cool Targa. Fix em.👍❤❤😎😝🤑
I think you'd be better off buying one in a box with "some assembly required" stamped on it... so you absolutely should get this!
Good job on fixing it up now just drive it & enjoy it
Those cars a so much fun to drive! I think it feels like a go-cart when you out on the open road! So tiny and fast! another great video! thank you for sharing!
I think this car deserves restoration but I would say that about any Porsche.. so maybe im biased. lol I was going to say minus that red one with the wood on it but you saved it too omg you're the Saint of Porsches
100% manual swap it! And get either a numeric or 997 GT3 shifter!
Yes. And because the opportunity to paint the car the way you want, it should be painted Yellowbird/GT2 Yellow. It needs it, it wants it.
@@ForcesNL it’s the perfect opportunity for a respray in a different colour. I have to say there’s plenty others in speed yellow so something different would be cool!
@@gregmayled Zanzibar red. Or Miami Blue or go home lol.
😂 I was so excited when I saw this new video pop up. I thought my phone was broken when the go pro went crazy lol. Can’t wait to see the new Porsche vids!
Great content as usual. It’s great to see great cars being saved!
Hoovie had a 996 turbo manual, made it perfect, sold it. He's not saving these for him, he's saving them for us. Fix it up, paint it yellow, manual swap it, and you already have a buyer.
Porsches are probably the only German cars I would consider owning, especially the older ones.
Great car and great story! I completely understand about lower horsepower on that type of road. I’ve got a 2021 Miata club. Such a blast to drive!
Awesome to see the Porsche back in the garage!!!
PLease swap the wheels on your slr...the left side should be on the right!! The turbines are the wrong way haha PLEASE
Top gun : I feel the need for speed
Hoovie : I feel the need to buy old crap
You totally nailed it with the “lower horsepower, older car” being super fun to drive on back roads. Certainly not the same, but sometimes my e30 is way more fun to cruise around in than my “fast car” or ones I’ve owned in the past.
In that sort of restomod but derelicty condition, I'd LOVE to own that Targa! Great job 👌
If your going to keep the Porsche Targa I would swap out the door panels and carpet for black ones but leave the rest alone. Definitely looks good with that patina look.
Stripper glitter as you call it went out in the 1980s. It was banned from the clubs because other showgirls hated it all over the place and men had a hard time explaining to their wives how they were just looking at Christmas ornaments when it wasn't Christmas.
I enjoyed that. I had a vintage 911 and a mid 80s 928S. Love my Porsches and can't wait to get another.
What an amazing Targa. I would love to see you put more money into it, but it can totally be enjoyed just the way it is too. 🤘🏽
Hoovie: This paint, it looks a little bit shinier than it used to be, so you did something!?!?
Leonard: I did. We did something. We polished it with... We gave it a bath with Comet!!😂😂
Hoovie: Cars too nice for me I'm kind of a bottomed feeder.
Also Hoovie: I paid $300,000 for one car.
Look up the definition of bottom feeder. He's spot on.
A 300k SLR is most certainly bottom feeding lol
@@ericervin4778 are you serious? cause this dude is loaded and is not a bottom feeder, and yeah he buys some shit cars but a bottom feeder is buying cars for 500$
@@jacob1423 I'm dead serious. From Merriam Webster: "an opportunist who seeks quick profit usually at the expense of others or from their misfortune." Someone's financial status has absolutely nothing to do with being a bottom feeder. And Bill Gates, Jeff Bezos, the Walton family, etc., etc., etc. are loaded. Hoovie is doing well financially for himself. And more power to him.
The cut from you walking in to the dealer to the car sitting in your garage. Classic :D

Hoovie’s Garage is the best CZcams channel!
This will be a classic Hoovie Hooptie fix up!
Picking that up was a no brainer. That's going to turn out very well.
Yes, no brainier, with the Wizard's touch. 🪄👌
Now THAT is a 996 I would bring back to life, too🙃
Keep doing the fun stuff. We'll keep watching.
We should really do a gofundme to get Hoovie a phone-mount for the car so he finally stops handholding it while driving
I'm going to start hanging out behind my porsche dealer. I've been looking for a reasonably price 996 turbo for years.
Yes! I found a clear title, bad clutch, bad RMS 996 C4S for $9800 sitting behind a porsche dealer in Colorado a while back.
The '79 SC is fantastic. The original color is called Casablanca Beige Metallic and is gorgeous in the sunlight. Great save!
Bump starting works a lot better in 2nd!
