DDK - Die Deutschen Klassiker

Thanks for the replies chaps but I’m ideally looking for something that we can improve.

I am looking for a complete and running Porsche tractor in oily rag condition or perhaps better that is road registered. Anything considered as it’s a project for my 12 year old son and me to use,improve and show. We have more enthusiasm than spare cash so We don’t mind doing the graft and legwork o...

Indeed

Old two strokes were not designed to run on modern thin oil's and a nice thick single grade oil will help to seal the crank. I would say that primary compression is almost definitely your problem. A leak down test will confirm this. Many of these vintage engines have been converted to a modern style...

I have looked into having a batch made but they would be cost prohibitive.

I had them specially commissioned. The quality is as good as OEM Porsche over mats. https://s5.postimg.org/p2ycefswn/455F20C8-22B7-4EE2-85E2-D9E31592E41A.jpg https://s5.postimg.org/yaqkv4s93/EF301E94-C874-40E7-8828-10AB6C3BEAC2.jpg https://s5.postimg.org/o0o5vvunr/5D0115DD-C456-4D01-B19A-C7263808485...
