To be perfectly honest I am sure he's an alright guy. Most guys are.

What bugs a lot of guys that restore Porsches about Magnus Walker is that there's a ton of talented guys doing the same great work with a little budget or not but they aren't recognized by the greater Porsche community. People today fall for style over substance. Not to say Mr. Walker has no substance, i have never met him but I do agree his cars are very well done.

But..
It's easy to throw a lot of money at a 911 and have it turn out nice.

Many here have mouths to feed, kids to spend quality time with and college to pay for (like myself) so we can't dump our extra time and money into our cars like we once could. That does create a bitterness especially among Artist types.

I studied fine arts and design and know this to be true.

Anyway, imo the talent come into play when you don't have a big budget to work with and you REALLY paint and restore your entire Porsche yourself.

Those of us with the rusty metal embedded in our eyes, burns, scars and short grey hair (a must while working in a garage) tend to get annoyed by guys that seem to be creating the illusion of being a truly hands on artist. I work in sneakers when appropriate (to relieve fatigue) and real work boots.. but definitely not designer boots and I don't have the work recorded to video to post.

This may sound like bitterness to many here. But for me, it's more annoyance because I have the battle scars.

Smart car guys notice this kind of stuff and it bugs them, period.
