This is the workshop where I have my 914 maintained. I was asked to make a short film to show the new facility.
It's the first time I filmed using a DSLR. I wanted to have a retro "filmic" look.

Can someone give me a hand to polish the english subtitles ? (text file attached)
If you want to read the subtitles while watching the movie you must click on the related button in the menu bar under the video.

Here's my take on the captions. My french is a bit crap, but I think I fixed it some. I hope it helps.

QUOTE
1
00:00:33,300 --> 00:00:37,950
Art Restoration is not an idea
that came suddenly

2
00:00:37,950 --> 00:00:40,890
Rather, it is the idea
to be independent

3
00:00:40,890 --> 00:00:44,490
professionally speaking, to live
my passion, to be autonomous,

4
00:00:44,490 --> 00:00:49,010
to work on Porsches.

5
00:00:49,010 --> 00:00:52,840
Today Art Restoration
has 10 employees.

6
00:00:52,840 --> 00:00:55,340
The workshop is 1400 square meters.

7
00:00:55,340 --> 00:01:00,010
Clients entrust us with their cars
for different work,

8
00:01:00,010 --> 00:01:04,640
from simple maintenance to
complete restoration

9
00:01:04,640 --> 00:01:06,880
We will actually do work on demand

10
00:01:06,880 --> 00:01:10,140
placing much importance on managing the car

11
00:01:10,140 --> 00:01:17,140
budgeting for
various aspects of repair

12
00:01:20,350 --> 00:01:25,000
bodywork is at the heart
of Art Restoration.

13
00:01:25,300 --> 00:01:28,790
I am fortunate to have
hired in my team,

14
00:01:28,790 --> 00:01:31,650
people who are as
demanding as I am.

15
00:01:31,650 --> 00:01:34,540
We are now equipped
with the tools

16
00:01:34,540 --> 00:01:41,540
to allow us to fully reconstruct
a car if necessary.

17
00:01:42,430 --> 00:01:46,300
Classic 911's were painted
with solvent-based paints,

18
00:01:47,010 --> 00:01:49,900
and we are a rare or even unique
garage in Alsace

19
00:01:50,800 --> 00:01:53,340
in that we are equipped with solvent-based paints.

20
00:01:53,340 --> 00:01:55,880
Water-based paint never seems
to have the same finish,

21
00:01:55,880 --> 00:01:58,960
the same color, the same depth,

22
00:01:58,960 --> 00:02:02,049
and when speaking of metallic colors
as they were done at the time,

23
00:02:02,049 --> 00:02:04,000
with a water-based paint,
we are far from the mark.

24
00:02:04,600 --> 00:02:06,000
Whereas with our solvent-based paints,

25
00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:08,600
we really approach the
finishes of the time.

26
00:02:13,200 --> 00:02:16,389
a "flat" engine is
technologically simple

27
00:02:16,389 --> 00:02:19,700
The implementation is complicated, however.
...it always leaks, oozes.

28
00:02:19,700 --> 00:02:23,359
Rebuilding an engine is not only
disassembly, cleaning , and reassembly,

29
00:02:23,359 --> 00:02:25,939
but there are a lot of checks,

30
00:02:25,939 --> 00:02:29,900
adjustment to be made
to build a reliable engine

31
00:02:29,900 --> 00:02:34,129
which runs smoothly and does not leak.

32
00:02:34,129 --> 00:02:37,959
We have set up a workshop with
machine tools with a person for

33
00:02:37,959 --> 00:02:40,549
fitting, turning, and mill operation.

34
00:02:40,549 --> 00:02:44,049
It enables us to assemble
engines with a quality level

35
00:02:44,049 --> 00:02:46,900
and reliability that is remarkable.

36
00:02:49,500 --> 00:02:53,879
Our general philosophy is,
above all, customer satisfaction,

37
00:02:53,879 --> 00:02:57,500
which means, cars are sold

38
00:02:57,500 --> 00:02:59,899
with as much transparency as possible.

39
00:02:59,899 --> 00:03:01,700
Customers who buy a car
from us will know

40
00:03:01,700 --> 00:03:03,429
its strengths and
weaknesses

41
00:03:03,429 --> 00:03:07,589
when someone comes for maintenance
we will give them advice

42
00:03:07,589 --> 00:03:09,769
and above all, we will solve
the problems.

43
00:03:09,769 --> 00:03:12,600
We take pride in not letting a car go

44
00:03:12,600 --> 00:03:15,000
until the problems are resolved.

45
00:03:18,600 --> 00:03:21,400
Restoring Fuchs wheels

46
00:03:21,400 --> 00:03:24,100
is also an important element
of our business.

47
00:03:25,489 --> 00:03:29,239
Three years ago, I met a German
who still has the know-how

48
00:03:29,239 --> 00:03:32,009
to restore Fuchs wheels
as it they were done originally.

49
00:03:32,009 --> 00:03:34,709
He retired and I took over
his business,

50
00:03:34,709 --> 00:03:37,100
and now we restore
Fuchs rims.

51
00:03:37,100 --> 00:03:44,879
At the Art Restoration facility

52
00:03:48,600 --> 00:03:50,389
the company is more than just the men that work here.

53
00:03:50,389 --> 00:03:52,109
-it is the customers.

54
00:03:52,109 --> 00:03:53,559
Many customers become friends.

55
00:03:53,559 --> 00:03:57,069
For me, my passion for Porsches
is driving the cars.

56
00:03:57,069 --> 00:03:59,779
Porsches have the most to offer
when driving together.

57
00:03:59,779 --> 00:04:02,869
Every Sunday morning , at 8:30am
we meet at the garage,

58
00:04:02,869 --> 00:04:04,100
have a bit of coffee...

59
00:04:04,100 --> 00:04:06,819
some discussion at "the flat",
and then we drive.

60
00:04:06,819 --> 00:04:08,100
We try to spend
two hours on the road.

61
00:04:08,100 --> 00:04:10,100
We have as much fun
driving a Porsche

62
00:04:10,100 --> 00:04:12,900
as seeing one in front
and another behind.

63
00:04:12,900 --> 00:04:13,900
That is great
