HA!! Well done RWebb!

Oh yeah, and Jack, brilliant film. I think you have captured the essence of air-cooled 911 obsession perfectly...the car, the garage, and in the film.

Best of the latest 911 films. Outstanding!

Great video Jack!

I think your car is the grand daddy of many projects that followed. It certainly inspired mine.

What a cohesive and well-edited profile ---first because every word is important to the story and second because one scene so logically transitions to the next, building a clear picture of a modest obsessiveness. It shows a lot of the car but doesn't loiter, and overall the videography is comfortably artful without clumsy aspirations to artfulness. Nicely cool, and enjoyable as well!

Very nice Jack.

I really like how the road shots show you staying in your own lane. No crossing the double yellow. I always think of the double yellow as a concrete wall. It makes the curve more fun and keeps the speeds to legal limits.

I really like your floor lift. That is something I plan to have fairly soon.

Awesome!

Now what are those tires!?

I was going to go with Azenis 615k...but these look a bit more aggressive.

Very, very nice...accomplished with vision and effort and talent...not just a fat wallet. You should be proud of what you've created.

Thumbs up

Let's be honest, Jack Olsen can turn a garbage storage bin into a work of art. It happened - check it out on his 12-Gauge web page. I've gotta get my can off the couch and make more $h!t happen. Thanks for the inspiration!

I enjoyed the video. Vintage (hot-rod) Porsches and garages, what's not to like?

Well deserved exposure. I've been thinking of emptying the contents of my garage into a shed but you have finally pushed me over the top into "action" mode
