  • Thank you for posting this! Nice to see some footage of my father during that era, who was Hurley and Peter's crew chief for much of the RSR and 917-10 cars used in CAN-AM. Visible in the red shirt at 7:52

    At 16 in 1976 I bought a 72 GMC Jimmy which I owned for 2 yrs loved that truck . In 78 I bought my first Porsche at 18 a 67 911S for 7000$ Cdn dollars . A lifelong Porsche love affair began ❤️

    Liked and subscribed. New favorite Porsche video. How does this not have thousands of likes and comments? The grainy video and late 60's/ early 70's back ground music are the icing on the cake. As annoying as it may be it wouldn't be the same without it! These hand made cars are great. The only cringeworthy part was seeing the technician stuff the wires in behind the Tach lol.

    I've owned a 69 912 for 20 years and still adore it.

    My parrnts won the trip to Germany at the 72 Porsche Parade. They traded down their plane tickets so my brother snd I could go with. Spent the month of March in Europe, instead of a 911 we got a bug to use. Got to see the batch of 2.8 RSR's at the race department and a galvanized 911 with no paint. Where are the beer machines

    A special quality to those "hand" built cars. Each one being unique in itself. No cookie cutter assembly with robots doing it all.

    I guess paying attention of a worker could vary on different days depending how one feels, a Monday car might not be a good idea I'd choose a Wednesday or Thursday car build 😀
  • No doubt, this was another era. Workers worked much harder in those days than they do today. Cars were really handmade.

    Yes, thank you very much for posting! At 9:42 the yellow ducktail 2.7? before Carrera badging and white one at 25:30. THAT is my dream car

    Large crowbars, hammers, and lots of banging - Porsche and I have this in common! 😂

    Very cool. I wish Peter Jackson would have a crack at the footage though.
