DDK - Die Deutschen Klassiker

These are the set of 15" 7 & 8s I had done at Lee Mayor Restorations.
They are that nice I've never mounted any tyres......silly isn't it.

They look great Mike.
Can't beat a nicely detailed Fuchs.

Another thumbs up for Mike Bainbridge, he's just done a full rebuild on my Targas 3.0SC motor and gearbox last year.
Not the quickest by any means but at least you know it's been done correctly.
I wish I could download Mikes knowledge on Aircooled engines and gearboxes.

Welcome to the group Paul from a fellow Yorkshire man.

Ps the 914 looks fantastic.

Last MOT was 2015 and it's done less than 200 miles according to the clocks.
Looks like it's been stored in a warehouse and not used.

Looking for the two red headlight rings if still available?
Cheers

Don't think they'd tackle Anodised and painting finish of a fuches wheel.

I ended up buying this just before Christmas and working my way through, body all solid, engine rebuilt 2000 miles ago, alfaholics suspension with bilsteins, been working through it, general service work and odd electrical gremlins.....well it is Italian. 1970 GTV1750 https://www.amazon.co.uk/photos...

I bought these for my double garage and made a massive difference. Got mine from Amazon.

He's been a great character on The Motorcycle Show, I think Henry Cole is in love with him
Amazing what he can do in his garage and looks such an unassuming little man.

This family set up gets good reviews amongst the classic bikers here.

I know the deliveries can be a bit long but worth asking.

Another thumbs up for Lee Mayor although I had set done with Nick at Early 911 some time ago and they were good too but not sure he's still doing them.

I've had a letter and a book from Official Porsche classic centre Leeds and they are doing the same thing, it doesn't give a cost of it but it looks like it ties you into servicing with them too so that equates to lots of ££££s.

Don't bother with OPCs on cars like this, indies give far better service IMO and realistic prices and you can speak to the Mechanic rather than someone thats sat at desk thats probably never seen your car.

Hi Dean, I wouldn't rely on baking them any later than 1 hour after cleaning and plating on grades above 8.8. In the 32 years I've been here I can't recall having any fasteners fail due to hydrogen embrittlement cracking. We do have one offshore customer that has there special fasteners Zinc Nickel ...
