1. Very interesting and informative. Thank you

2. Sam want to sell it? I’m in Tampa!

3. Auction fees are one of the greatest American rip off scam there ever was

4. Hahahahahahaha the rear bumper always matches better with existing when it’s seen from the shade …..seriously…..

5. Love it

6. 9:57 Samcrac you looked like you were on crac 😂😂😂

7. There are 911 comments when I wrote this comment

8. I'd keep he Porsche !21

9. I'm a Porsche guy soI'm gonna be a little bit biased this is of interest steam you to project video that you put out it seems like you were really having a good time building up that Porsche but it takes a very specific owner to dry actually drive and own a Porsche. There's never been another car that has given me such a smile has a distinctive sound it is true German sports car. Chevy doesn't do any of that …

10. I love that car, it came out great.

11. Oh man..Why not take to body shop?

12. My ex Boxster S 2001 was so nice and good car.

13. Porches wil get more value later !!

14. Loving the 911 series, that really is an amazing car for the money, they are still fetching up to £50,000 here in the UK. What a tremendous job, well done samcracc. With much love from a British grease monkey 😎✌️

15. I’m glad you tried and gave a Porsche a chance, nice video

16. Well overall I think that it is a success, however, I would follow up with an oil analysis from Blackstone Labs to actually check out the wear and bore scoring…especially # 6 cylinder….

17. Rusty lugs kinda ruin those beautiful wheels

18. Just finished watching this series. Amazing what you can do on a shoestring budget and the willingness to learn a new skill. Having an excuse to buy new tools is a bonus! I agree with the other posts about the panel gaps though. TBH, uneven gaps look like crap and will lower your resale numbers. If it's not that tough to align, why not do it right the first time? I like your channel and would've subscribed but the ads and the personal endorsements were a bit much for me. I know it pays the bills, but makes for an otherwise great video hard to watch. Just my 2 cents.

19. You can't compare that 911 German art to that crude Corvette….The Porker wins hands down in every way.

20. No waste of money, you should give it away…

    I'm looking for a car to drive across The USA…

21. The whole car needs a $5, 000 -$7, 000 paint job now. I'd pay no more than $4, 500 for it.

22. For his own daily drivers, Samcracc only buys Certified Preowned Vehicles!

23. Nice!

24. …not 5mm but 5% of the width – learn to read tires sizes 😉

25. What caused the engine to idle rough (RPM gauge to jump around) when you first started the car?

26. I need one of those ride?

27. Nice work samcracc!!!!

28. I don’t think that. 996 with a salvage title would be worth more than 10K. Did you sell it, or are you going to keep it?

29. Did you sell it already?

30. the 996 mk1 is the best looking, pure design.

31. thanks so much for showing us your builds .
    I have have been enjoying your vid`s a lot and have to say with limited resources you do a pretty excellent job.. my compliments and hope you continue your vids,. thanks… greetzz from Holland

32. And what happened to the Magnum

33. So what are you going to sell it for

34. Would make a fun track day car.

35. Hi, Sam this is Tyrone from dc… u did a really nice job on that Porsche. U wouldn’t be interested in trading one of ur really neat cars for my 2006 E350… lol. Again excellent job on the Porsche.

36. Need some more chickens in this video

37. how much will you sell it for?

38. Whats the market value of the car if you were to sell it. And what happened to it after this video?

39. Sell it as fast as possible and buy a proper (air cooled) Porsche.

40. $9K is cheap but then you have to factor in all the man hours it took.

41. great job,,,,,,merry xmas

42. Canadian spec car with the KPH speedo? that's pretty rare, most Cdn cars are US imports

43. Will u take $13k ?

44. Good job bud, what's the color code for the paint ? I want to paint my mk4 Jetta like that blue, and tell people where I got the color from (I I'll show them your video)

45. Did you have it on a body or alignment rack after your work and how was its straightness?

46. The front hood seam does not lion up

47. It's easy to find with a manual,…i'm European.

48. Which car is faster. Vette or Porsche?? I'm guessing the base Porsche 911 is a tad faster.

49. Hi Sam, if you ever consider selling the Porsche 911, let me know, I would be interested in buying it.
