I GOT IT TOTALLY WRONG! The True Story of My Abandoned Porsche 914

Описание: Nothing beats a good story behind a car, and we've managed to track down some of the history of my Porsche 914/4! Let's head up to ‪@yorkshirecarrestoration‬ in the 296 GTS to start stripping out the interior, try to start it up for the first time, and figure out the Shmeemobile's history!

I've recently bought a 1973 Porsche 914/4 2.0 that's in a confusing state; some things have been restored but plenty more needs work to be done. That's why we're up with Steve and Ryan who have been cracking on with stripping things down to get to the bottom of more of the issues. With plenty of rust found; it's been nicknamed Project Patches - but that's why it is in good hands for the fixes. Today's plan is to get it more pulled apart, taking out the interior, and then giving it a go to get this thing started up!

However, I bought it completely blind, with no clue of the history and where this car had been before. However, thanks to the world of social media, we know have contact with previous owners, know a bit more about where it was, what work was done, when it came to the UK and more. Having been able to find out some of this makes it even more exciting to undertake this project! I wonder if we'll find out any former owners in the US from before...

Make sure to also follow Yorkshire Car Restoration directly for plenty of the updates that are coming with this, interspersed with progress on the Shmee150 channel as we go too. It's a really exciting project, even if there's even more work required than we thought!
