DDK - Die Deutschen Klassiker

Well the sun was out so I had a go at replacing the old 'toilet' latch covers with the correct Fibresteel version... What we started with... https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20220808/90a737bc08e0bb01a7bc2cc9f514b595.jpg Don't leave the seat up! https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20220808/2dd176bc9496b...

Hi All Question for the all knowing DDK hive mind... I have a pair of what I believe to to be 80's Porsche bonnet crests (they came off my 550 'rep'). So what I'm asking is are they 'real' Porsche parts and what (if anything) are they worth? https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20220808/b01bf8d84cb7e471...

Afternoon All So in the true DDK fashion of 'not leaving things well alone', it's time to tidy up a few little details (shinny stuff curtesy of Roger Bray and Fibersteel). There's nothing major involved, just a few holes to drill... https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20220728/2df68fc9e44e2d1c3a84d9eb2...

Hi Graham
Love how flat to the track the Lola looks, sounds great as well...


All the best

Very little, just a good clean up of the idle jets and tweak here and there…
Runs smoother now, with a little less popping but still very loud (which is nice)!

Hi All Not strictly today, but last week I managed to get the 550 ‘rep’ in for a quick rolling road tune, not looking for bragging rights or power figures (I can’t help feeling at only a thousand miles I can’t take hearing it screaming at its rev limit), simply after sorting out a flat spot or two… ...

Think long and hard before you sell, good old Porsches are hard to find, but old cars that we have real ties to are irreplaceable!

All the best

I’ve now managed to put over a thousand miles under the ‘Brockleys’, so it’s a qu...

Hi All

Dropped my wife at the station this morning, got some fuel, got it covered in filth. Running sweet! :) https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20220504/db61ff254340e0e948aaf37bd9648f4f.jpg https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20220504/bc7fbb5ef2ab9bda5443ad19f9299db2.jpg Your car's looking great Gary After al...

Hi Al Looks like a nice project and what could be nicer than a 'Sepia' 2.4T (I have a soft spot for LHD T's)? Love the seat trim and good call on the 'standard' bumper! Looking forward to your future posts. All the best Ian F. PS. Don't take this the wrong way but... "Welcome to the Brown Broth...
