DDK - Die Deutschen Klassiker

Hi all, Trying to sort out a bit of an engine gremlin and have been told first port of call would be to grade to electronic ignition. Its a 1969 912, running a Bosch blue coil # 9 220 081083, the distributor cap says Beru VK 106 KO but I cant see anything else. Could you guys point me in the right d...

It was late evening approaching twilight no head lights on when it drove into the car park, and pitch black night time when it drove out.

Cheers Ian - they seem like a good compromise between price, functionality and looks.

Thanks for the replies all - 165 does seem super skinny, can a go up to a 185 on Steels ?

Hi all, I know there have been a few threads on this topic but just wanted to get people's current thoughts. I have a 1969 912 Coupe with the original steel wheels that currently has some awful eco tyresl that were fitted when I got it, that are the wrong size - 175/55/15. I have seen discussions ar...

I cant believe there's stuff coming the other way, people on bikes, guy pushing his bike along track edge.

Looking for a decent set of deep 6 original wheels, in good condition, don't need to be date matching.

Anyone looking to sell please PM me.

Thanks,

Grant

Thanks for the kind words, the paint is Bahama Yellow but looks mustard in low light, and properly yellow in direct sun.

It looks better in the photos than up close, but I'm working on that

Not had this long and working my way through the inherited issues, but its atleast starting to look better ...

Motivated me to get out tonight before the clocks go back and the dark nights begin.

MY top tip is stay out of the direct midday sun, aim for shots taken early morning or late evening - Golden Hour. It produces a much more mellow feel to the photos. Also if you can shot at a low Aperature F2.8 and below as helps to blur the back ground slightly and puts focus on the car. Generally g...

OK here she is : I need to change the headlights to euro spec, and possibly fuchs further down the line but the steel wheels are growing on me. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/50398155578_5b6e9a7f31_c.jpg IMG_3231 by mr_mojorisin_2000 , on Flickr https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/50399027132_d...

Hi all, Its great to be able to say I've just bought my first Porsche ! Its a 1969 912 Coupe, looks to be in generally good condition mechanically and structurally but with work to be done, and the paint although looks good enough from a few feet away will also need to be seen to as soon as I have i...
