DDK - Die Deutschen Klassiker

Most excellent progress, oh so close now!

I think James has it sorted. He drives the 911 hard as he lives in God's County and with great visible roads. I don't. The West Midlands must be the opposite, so ragging a 911 is not really a good idea, THUS all i need is a good tyre in the wet and one that makes the speedo reading true, there are a...

Socket to hold the cam shafts and the crows foot too.

Do i get a pint for this effort?

Big Tick! We are doing now our 33rd year in the Midland Hillclimb Championship. Silly but addictive sport! My class mate had a big off this afternoon just to sober things up. He left before me and I got 20 mins baking in the Shelsley Walsh sun on the start line.... A full 3 secs slower than my PB, s...

Mine are like Gary's, 73T Coupe.
It is easy to fit them set back so you cant see them.

Not sure what is right, but i don't care much about originality on the car!

My seals all were new from OPC in 1989.

On my 73T they are a simple one part U bracket. I used mine to pull one Dansk wing to fit the leading edge of the door using the head lamp bowl bolt. Worked a treat. Then I used spacers to get the bumper (f/glass) to fit the wing and the 'nose' on top of the horizontal leg of the bracket. You need g...

I've stuck with it from the start to now. It dived after Keith in many areas esp when you compare it to Octane. Recently, it has had some good features, but for me far too 'historical' and deviates away from the cars, but just my take. The details at times are irritating as the mistakes are so funda...

They are the only places I can find to park!
Honest.

Had the morning to myself today, so washed the Boxster and took it out to dry the brakes off, to the local Farm shop, 2 20Kg bags of seed and peanuts into the boot and the frunck and stopped off at a nice hamlet/village on the way back for some late spring pictures. It was sunny but the phone took d...

It's been a treat!
Covered some of our favorite places, and some off our radar, so a good watch for us.

Car worked too, so a real bonus for all.

Well done Rob. Need to get all the parts out and check the IMS gear wheel for damage etc., but looks like a good engine. If it helps, when my 3.2 blew the alum grains were everywhere in the engine, oil cooler and all the galleries and pipes, just everywhere. I threw the oil cooler away as impossible...

I organised an evening trip to explore CMC a few years ago for my motor club, 26 of us.
A really nice place, full of great cars all being worked on.

Not at all surprised it looks so good!

I thought Mike had retired? That lump of alloy jamming the piston should tap back into the case where it dropped in from? Gary is right, free one side of the engine of pistons and you will make progress after that with the crank exposed. If the pump is tight it may be with metal parts from what has ...

Another fan of the Rings! Remember the Good Guys win in the end. Dempsey of course locates the ramp/colour for you on rebuild. There is a good chance the broken mounting stud has been screwed in too far and pushed the back of the blind hole into the engine, you will soon find out! Exoecting to see a...
