Watch An 18-Month Porsche 911 Restoration Play Out Over 4 Minutes
Project cars can be painful, painful things. Taking on an extensive restoration isn’t for the faint of heart, but if it’s not for you, perhaps this will give you an idea of how much work can be needed for a big rebuild job.
It’s the work of Jeff, an Australian man who’s almost irritatingly talented. As his 18-month, 1973 Porsche 911 RSR project plays out in this four or so minute video, we see him rebuild the engine, refresh and repaint the bodyshell, fabricate a roll cage, and even build and trim interior panels from scratch. Is there anything this guy can’t do?
The car isn’t finished yet, as the rebuilt engine still needs to be installed. We heartily recommend you head over to his YouTube channel - Home Built by Jeff - to keep an eye out for the conclusion, and to take a closer look at what’s been done to the car up to this point.

Every person who loves porsche knows this feeling.
One guy? Impressive, very impressive. He’s done a great job.
Restoring a car is like completely rehabilitating someone in a wheelchair to the point where he can walk completely normal, maybe even better than ever. It is magical. And this one is too!
