DDK - Die Deutschen Klassiker

Well done

I had a look round your car and was very impressed with it

Fantastic work, your fabrication and metal bashing skills are awesome

Greg work on that dash Many years ago I did something similar to a geniune RHD Ghia to make an all metal peak over the gauges. I don't think VW ever produced a pressed metal dash panel for RHD format cars and on the very early SA '59 ghia we had it was factory bastardised from a LHD pressing and the...

No worries,

From my experience of driving in SA you need all the bumper protection you can get!!

Must pop over and see you at some point

Hi Drew

Speaking will Bill the other day and after a few text's he was sent a photo of Mickey's wife with the 356 while they were in SA by his son in law.


Not sure if they keep the reg details in SA for older cars but cool none the less

That is soooo nice, stunning job!

Hope to see it in the flesh at an event next year

Great work! Just goes to show all this stuff is still out there if you persist to find it

This is an interesting read, shows the mounting hardware for the AMCo unit https://derwhites356literature.com/New356Stuff/LuggageRacksfor356Porsches.html You can get the Lietz rack mounting hardware from here (perhaps mod it to work?) https://replicaparts.co.uk/products/porsche-356-all-1950-1965-lie...

Hello

Does anyone have a set of new (NOS) SC or 912 crank main bearings kicking about they want to part with? Looking for std crank and std case sizes.

P.S. I know they are avail from the likes of Design911 etc


TIA

Hi Layercake I guess the fitting hardware is probably going to be very hard to find. If you have the actual luggage rack but not the hardware I would have a go at making some as there seems to be only the following: The long machine screws, support tubes, retaining tabs and then likely a washer and ...

Hi Drew When I worked with Bill from Dakota Classics we had Mickeys 935 Kramer rep 911 in and did a full engine strip rebuild on it. At that time (circa 1999) I rebuilt my SC engine alongside as we did his. You can just see the 935 side skirt in the pictures attached. As Mickeys car has a new clutch...

The rear 1/4 panel cards look like they are from a coupe not targa.

Probably a slightly easier install in the daily than in the 356

Really nice looking motor, that exhaust looks interesting as its got more standard sized silencer boxes compared to other sebring systems i've seen.

Love the tall velocity stacks too, great wor,

How long till CLM? eek

Perhaps a little bit, we need a back to back test on the same motor, any takers
