DDK - Die Deutschen Klassiker

Update. for now my friend has decided to keep the Targa. I think that it is the right decision. As soon as he started to get some serious interest he started to think that he was doing the wrong thing.. he is now considering buying a modern Targa to go with the old one!! thanks for all of the help. ...

This is a rare car, one of only 46 worldwide. It requires some very careful promotion by the right people to get the top price. Can you confirm the colour please. Likely Bahia red over black. If original colour it is very rare. If repainted in the year 2000 to guards red (by mistake or otherwise) t...

Hi all. it has been a long time since last visiting. A good friend is thinking of selling his car and I wanted to post it on here and look for suggestions of the best way forward with it. He is looking for a simple sale and has asked me to help. He has owned the car since it was 7 years old and he i...

Final update.
It sold yesterday. It has been purchased by Brian at Rindt. He will find a new life for it. The seller is happy and I think that the deal was a fair one.

I think you may need to revise your sales patter

Love it.. I could never be a salesman...

I have had a few engines rebuilt by Ninemeister recently and am very pleased with them. they have rebuilt my 964. a previous 964 and are currently working on a 930 and 993tt for me..

Hi All it has been a few months and I owe you all an update.. I had a good look at the car and did a realistic/pessimistic assessment of the money and time that i would have to spend and decided not to make an offer as it would have been less than the sum of the parts and the owner was keen not to b...

So I have been asking around and it looks like it doesn't make sense for me to restore it as the cost is looking north of £100,000 to make an £80,000 car.. I think that the car is worth more sold off in parts, which is against the owners wishes.. If anyone is interested in the car as a project or in...

No the owner has asked me not to give out the reg number, but he tells me that it is associated with AFN.. it is a F reg and ends 10F..

thanks

I have decoded the VIN and the first 4 digits are 1181 XXXX this seems to show that it is a 911, 1968, T Coupe, and not an L as the owner had told me. Thanks for all your help. I have some thinking to do. As you all say it is is a one year only model and with boxes and boxes of parts it could become...

Hi there is is currently painted burgundy red and has a plate on the a post with the code 6808-1 which seems correct?

. I don't know where you got that engine number from but it bears no resemblance to format used for 2.0 911 engines. There were 4 different engines used in the 1968 911L: - engine type no. 901/06 with serial no. in the format 308 XXXX fitted to ROW 911L models - engine type no. 901/07 with serial n...

Hi there this is an odd one, i have been offered a RHD 1968 911L. The car is stripped and has the front and rear wings removed, the structure is solid, with good floors etc, but has some patch welding on the inner wings, front and rear.. It is in a workshop with a number of other old cars, lotus, Ma...
