DDK - Die Deutschen Klassiker

Mine arrived today. Now fitted. Looking great.
Many Thanks

With the bits off, they are off to be prettied up.... Spring plates and overs are being re zinc plated. I did consider buying the adjustable spring plates from Elephant Racing, but as they are quite pricey, I will go with the originals for now. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52654155797_1757f28...

One of my winter jobs is to sort out the squeaky rear suspension. Its been really annoying! Step 1: Jack up the car. I usually use the suspension mounts to do that, but obviously if I'm taking the suspension off, I need an alternative. First off, block the front wheels. https://live.staticflickr.com...

Thanks for all your advice....... Just for reference, my car has 79 3.0 engine, which is now a 3.2SS with twin plug ignition, 46MM PMOs, lightened flywheel, FG tinware, Turbo Thomas dual outlet stainless exhaust. I also have a fibreglass rear bumper, aluminium engine lid and 915 gearbox. I would ima...

I got mine out recently through the clock and speedo holes. Just undo the top 2 bolts on the strap, remove the wipers and bolts that hold them in and you should be able to wiggle it out. Its a tight fit, but with a bit of patience it will come out. My advice would be to put some electrical tape arou...

I'm in the process or replacing my rear suspension bushes. At least, that was the original plan. As always, this is turning into a 'whilst you're in there project' My 70T has a 3.2SS engine and 915 gearbox, so it's heavier in the rear than stock. After inspecting my torsion bars, they are the origin...

Hi,
I'd like a black one too. I've been thinking about it for a while, but I think it would be useful. Please let me know if you still have any.

Many thanks

Chrome London sent my fixed radio back. I had fried both the radio and the blue tooth dongle. I reinstalled both yesterday and put some NOS basket weave on the dashboard facia that I happened to have in my garage. The sound through the single dash speaker is pretty good, although I did replace it a ...

Hi Matt,
I just sent you £15 for mine

Thanks James. I'm pretty happy with it. Frunk area now back together https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52615438264_50f4afd018_z.jpg Front end is now back together again. I fitted an early style orange Porsche badge. Previously it had a sticker. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52615438144_70f68...

I installed my blue one today. Its certainly very bright and I've not had a chance to drive my car in the dark yet, but I think I'll keep it as is as I certainly won't forget full beam is on!

I bought some Porsche black paint. Shocking match! More of a dark grey than a black https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52612976609_7a0c42f281_z.jpg So I bought an alternative from my local EuroParts shop in Chessington, which looks a lot better https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52612976504_975dff...

I just ordered a blue one. I had my dials restored and I think there should have been a blue cover for full beam, but was presumably missed. This is an easy alternative to sending them back. However, I have a couple of boxes of the originals, so will leave the rest as they are.

I've been following Johannes on Youtube for some time. A true perfectionist. I'm pretty sure my issue is not my brakes as the issue arises at 70ish mph. I've been reading quite a bit about steering wobble. It looks like worn ball joints are a common culprit. I quite like the look of these, but as an...

The windscreen has been removed. All rust was found to be surface rust only. Rust inhibitor has been applied. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52569629025_34009a38ab_n.jpg https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52568722217_344753483b_o.jpg https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52569709888_a9c97e38e6_o...
