Behind the Throttle DIY
We’re Marty and Tate—a father-son duo, wrenching through DIY life one project at a time. On this channel, you’ll find us swapping thermostats, building floating shelves, fixing fenders, and figuring it out as we go. We will tackle automotive repairs, maintenance and DIY home improvement projects.
This is the raw, unfiltered space where we learn, experiment, and share what works (and what doesn’t) before launching our main build series over at @ThrottleandWrench. We haven’t picked our first car to rebuild yet and will make that decision in 2026, but looking at either a Cayman S or maybe a GT4 to start.
Whether you’re into tools, torque, or just curious how things come together—we’re glad you’re here.
Subscribe and follow along as we build skills, share tips, and keep it real Behind the Throttle.
