DDK - Die Deutschen Klassiker

There is nothing new in the view that T5 Bs are worth less than C's , it has been that way since the C emerged. In reality this means that the buyer has more of an opportunity to get a good deal with a B. When I bought my first 356 in 1968 , I chose a ( very rusty) T6 B Super 90 made in 1963 . I cou...

Good question ! Mine looks like it is less than 90 degrees and more than 60 , hard to tell as with a dry screen they move on the smallest arc , presumably friction affects it . The other thing I noticed is that not synchronised , one blade reaches apex and is on return while the other stlll heading ...

Er , try again !

Is this the sort of thing you're working towards ? https://i.pinimg.com/564x/37/f7/be/37f7bec8d97d23f5fdda2d1f8a8cb3da.jpg That's great , I'll take one of those . It reminds me of a Gmund coupe in the Porsche Museum , same sort of setting , only the Fuchs wheels give the game away . Of course start...

Marcus , Dan Gannon (cariconics) is your man , believe me.

Well done James , good photos ! You could still have turned up in a Porsche even if not a 356 , they were made to be driven ! The anticipated number did turn up in spite of the miserable weather in the morning . I encountered one other 356 , an SC cabriolet , on the way up from London , the lady dri...

Sell it like Robert says . Values are not going to rise any more except for the best of the best in certain models (IMHO!).

You might even find a good one to replace it while you are out there - sorted !

Hooray - all we need now is good ( ie dry ) weather to keep the tinworm quiet . My car came from Australia and not used to Northern European climate......

Hi Ashley , I do not get to my home address till late Saturday and hopefully the tickets will be there waiting for me !

If you have still not got them as of today ( Wed) phone 01608 652911 ( club office )

Rob , there must be more than 200 , have only counted the ones known to PCGB register, maybe someone else has a better number . I never see a lot gathered together in one place in UK or many on my 356 travels.

At the Shuttleworth Collection , see Events subforum . Expecting about 20 cars to turn out , barely about 10% of the UK population based on pre-booking . I guess fine weather might produce a few more but not going to bet money on it , this is likely to be the last organised 356 event of the year , s...

Per person !

above event is organised by the 356 Register of the Porsche Club GB and the idea is to display our 356s , not many people have seen them before ! It is being held on the last flying day of the year , historic aircraft will be flying , plenty of static displays in hangars ( Shuttleworth Collection ) ...

My second posting on this thread , encouraged by overcoming the demise of 'free' photobucket and finding out how to use 'flickr' as its replacement so can add pictures for Bootsy. I still don't understand why pre-booking is a deterrent to people coming , so what if you are unable to make it on the d...
