DDK - Die Deutschen Klassiker

Hi Howard,

I have sent a PM, lots left. Just let me know what you would like.

The only ones I am starting to run low on are the black anodised aluminium.

Thanks Tom

Bought a new key ring for the car

Collected the car fro...

Loving the drive and feel of the car. That's good, especially given that you have plenty of other excellent choices! Do you need to thin out the fleet a bit? I do, and for a little while considered selling my completed full resto (the orange car). TBH it wasn't the sunk investment of blood sweat an...

James, Thanks for the reply and sorry for not responding sooner. I have Deser sports seats and have learned only recently that these are a pretty good copy of the original sports seats. I think the issue is the foam is too hard / new and it feels like I am sitting on top of them. Almost impossible t...

I am considering changing the front seats in my e. I will be fully reupholstering my seats and would rather have a seat I am comfortable with before i go and spend money on the covering.

Does anyone have age appropriate sports seats for sale?

Regards

Tom

Richard,

Thanks. Delighted that it at this stage, just the final touches to go. Loving the drive and feel of the car.

Stopped into see a friend today and took some pictures of the E. Quite incredible the difference in size. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/51995545703_2a7850e557_b.jpg https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/51994481317_7e718677b2_b.jpg https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/51994910971_8fb1c33081_b.jpg...

Darren, Thanks for the kind comments, have really appreciated your help and subtle guidance along the way with this project. I am looking forward to have the interior complete, the car will come alive with this. In terms of the build, Gary has done an incredible job. I know that over restoring a car...

Thanks John. Wanted to bail out is an understatement.

Time for some miles to heal the wounds.

....and my pump has arrived.

Thanks everyone. 50 or so miles tonight with my wife, running reasonably well. Just loud enough that she didn't want to talk over the engine noise. :) My own fuel pump has arrived so keen to get this on and the car tuned, running rich and slightly hesitant at times, better on fuller throttle. Absolu...

So just short of 8 years later, two bare metal resprays while it was being rebuilt :?, didn't ever expect to have to do that. That in itself sounds simple but it brought complications such as a door skin that needed stretched :cry: . In any event its 90 % finished, just the interior to sort and it w...

Excellent, I will take one as well.
