DDK - Die Deutschen Klassiker

I`ll be there on Monday

They are Bosch 5" fog lights, but I`ve wired them into the high beam. They`ll see more use that way. They should really be 4", but they work out at about £600 a pair, and I can`t justify that price!! Once you`ve cut the holes they simply bolt to the outer of the luggage compartment, with a...

Hi Rich, yer the hard tops been fun, needed to cut it in half, add two inches to the middle, then re-profile the front and rear, for a nice snug fit. First attempt at spraying two pack, that`s a pain. Got all the seals from the States. Just need to go and see Gary, to see if any of his parts are cor...

Another little project finished. I think they look good, even if they are an inch too big :) http://i799.photobucket.com/albums/yy272/speedstars/photo_zpsbdb913e3.jpg http://i799.photobucket.com/albums/yy272/speedstars/image1_zps165aef65.jpg http://i799.photobucket.com/albums/yy272/speedstars/image_...

Body slightly wider at bumper height, front and rear. Rear seat area scuttle profile slightly different. Rear seat area completely different. Distance from rear scuttle to screen slightly longer. Door hinge area totally different. Door steps slightly different. Some dont have the gutter around the l...

Hi guys, for all of you who subscribe to the online magazine Aircooled Classics, in this months edition they have done a 12 page feature on my car. Just thought I`d let you know. It`s out mid September http://www.aircooledclassicsmagazine.com/ :) :) For all those who don`t subscribe to the magazine....

Nice sidescreens, they do fit better the other way round though. One mans attempt at stopping the water getting in.
Don`t really see the need for the extra fasteners?!

Top notch job, and I thought I was doing well building mine the first time, for 6.5k, just to prove you could build a Speedster cheaply. She must have got the body second hand, for a song, as that`s the major outlay. I take my hat off to you young lady, have a wonderful life together, and happy moto...

Oh, and there`s the rear.

There`s the gap on an original Speedster, it`s huge. Looks like I need to move mine out a lot!

Great call on the Haggerty insurance, I just insured the Speedster and Beetle on a join policy foe £232, like for like policy. £200 cheaper than Footman James wanted to renew.

Sorry I meant bend it over 90 degrees, with heat.

Get solid piece of stainless round tube, run a die down it on one end or get a local machine shop to do it for you, Bend the other end over 45 degrees and cut a slot in the bent bit. Drill a hole in the windscreen frame, hook the top in and pass through the hole in the dash. Cut a pice of pipe the s...

yep, it looks better in the pictures than it really is.
