DDK - Die Deutschen Klassiker

Just heard major change to today’s route ... weather must be appalling back home in Yorkshire ! Took my daughter to Durham to start Uni yesterday and rain was biblical in that area. On the way back, traffic slowed as a 3 series was parked in the central reservation Armco and there were a few areas ...

Great work Rob, as I am getting back to mine, this is proving very helpful. Plenty of food for thought as I ponder all those seemingly small but key questions about my build - dash layout, heat, pop outs or not, what can/can't be done for IVA, etc.. Importantly, good luck with the job hunt. All the ...

Just done. Thanks for keeping this sanctuary running.

Cheers

Progress has been a little slow, partly a little hesitation due to the Govt consultation, however am now starting to move forwards again. My chassis was in poor state - rusted out along the bottom of the tunnel, framehead bottom half almost no-existent once the crud was removed, lots of heavy rust o...

Having sorted out the fuel leak, I now need to bolt the front protection plate on with the front arb and I have so far failed. There is just no way to get it all lined up to get the bolts into the captive nuts on the chassis. This is not helped by lying on my back under the car with the front raise...

That is a great summary for those of us running along behind you, thanks. One thing I am still not clear on is Q plate vs age related. I thought a shortened beetle chassis automatically put the car in Q plate territory, have I got this wrong? I have 2 Beetle chassis one (72) supplying the donor part...

Minor update on this. Progress was a bit slow in the run top to new year, although engine was stripped, most time just spent looking at it and scratching my head. Managed to get some 1600 heads (nicely rebuilt), pistons and barrels and also a pair of baby dell's. When I stripped the engine down, it ...

Welcome aboard. You won't go wrong with a Speedster Clinic build. Being some way through a Pre A coupe build you have done the right thing in getting a beetle doner as all the little bits that you need are what costs the money. Spend the time in restoring all the bits as it will save you a fortune d...

Just about to embark on a long held ambition to build a kit car. Kids are grown up - not left the house yet!! - so I have a bit more time to spend with Mrs Fuchs and also to indulge myself. I have been swapping messages with Gary at Speedster Clinic and am getting things organised at home so I can p...
