DDK - Die Deutschen Klassiker

Martin, where are you at with you Targa renovation? That was seriously impressive to follow along with. Best, John Thanks John, No progress since my last update a year ago, I'm still procrastinating unfortunately, but I've been rebuilding a Jag Mk2 since lockdown, compared to the Targa it's very st...

Thank you Ian, top man

I need a workshop manual for 3.0SC

Has anybody bought & downloaded the E-manuals online, I read the reviews & they seem very mixed.

I've got a Haynes, but you can't beat factory manuals.

There are two connectors on the rear, one is the cold start injector, and one is the safety switch (stops the fuel pump when the engine is not turning.) having either disconnected would not give the symptoms you describe Thanks John, My fuel pump does run with just the ignition on, so the disconnec...

Not being very up on Porsche specialists, it was a bit of an eye opener to say the le...

A fabulously understated post ignoring the countless hours of fitting cutting and fettling to get to the welding moment. Keep it up. Inspiring stuff. [emoji106] Yes Gary, Must of had the floor on & off 50 times, before committing to weld it on, but who wants to know that, this is show business ...

Eyy up,major milestone approaching Joined the 2 halves of the floor together... https://i.postimg.cc/tTwq7DD4/2019-03-26-18-33-55.jpg Painted centre tunnel before welding in and drilled a few holes :roll: https://i.postimg.cc/j5wKVPK0/2019-03-30-11-27-55.jpg Look at all those lovely welds to grind b...
