Episode 1 Summary
Up late, surfing the internet, looking at cars.........then this happened...........
I bought a lovely-looking Porsche 911 Carrera (996) that could probably tell some juicy stories judging by the Graffiti scratched into the paint.
​
Did someone skimp on the Porsche 911 Maintenance? Would you like to know what happened? Has the engine destroyed itself? Is the Porsche IMS or the IMS Bearing Trashed?
​
Do you think this beautiful Porsche 996 can be saved?

Episode 2 Summary
The moral of this Porsche 996 story seems to be "More speed, Less Haste".
I really enjoyed the haste though!
The Bumper, Mufflers, and Coil Packs on this 911 were pretty easy to get off, Porsche Carreras are less challenging than expected for a clueless DIY enthusiast.
The Badlands winch worked Really well.
