DDK - Die Deutschen Klassiker

Hopefully I'll have some final pics soon, and you'll be able to see .

Actually I was surprised how well the Artex'ed sections blended in. The trick is to use a good brush when putting the gloss on.

Quick update: I pretty much finished the interior today, with (at last) the side windows, door trims and door furniture going in. It's all made a huge difference visually, and the weight of the glass and mechanisms has given the doors a more substantial feel when closing.

Believe it or not, the doors have taken nearly three full days to fit up, just in order to get everything to fit well (not easy on these, as they never did from new), and particularly, getting them absolutely solid, rattle free and with a nice 'clunk' as they close.

If we have a bit of sun this week I'll get some (just about) final photo's with the good camera.

Hi Barry,

I was going to show this thread to a potential TR owner but all the pictures have disappeared from the first pages

If it's an easy fix could you repair this as well, as an inspiration for what can be done this thread really covers it

Thanks Gary, I hadn't spotted this.

Very funny you should post this now, as I've just had a 'TR Day', and spent yesterday (after the 911 MOT), checking it over ready for the MOT this morning.

No problem again, so nice shiny new ticket .

The car has come a long way since the last picture, and I'm hoping to take it out later today to get some pre-sale photo's.

I'll try to sort those pictures out .

How much for the car

Trying to arrive at a price at the moment: it needs to go as I seem to have a 911 that needs a home here ..

I'll P.M. you with my initial thoughts

Eek: all of the pictures have come back .

Perhaps it's because I logged into my Villagephotos account, didn't do anything though ... still saved me a job.

Spent this afternoon fiddling with it, plus tidying up the driveway ready for some pictures tomorrow. Got a dealer quite interested in it, so need to get organised .

Finally got around to doing those pictures .

Car is now just about there: needs the boot trimming in the Racing Green pure wool carpet that I bought to match the interior (much nicer than the black hardboard original), hardtop needs restoring (beating, filling, painting and trimming), plus odds and sods.

I've got a couple of dealers interested in it: it needs to go ASAP as the 911 has hit the road quickly, which means I'm mega tight on garage space. Not sure what to ask for it though: usable ones are 7-12K. Concours are around 20K, and this must be a bit above the usable ones . We'll see.

Anyway, it is for sale, if anyone knows of someone that fancies some British iron .

Looks fabulous !

I hope you have good fortune selling that Barry.
It looks superb.
The work you've put into that deserves substantial financial reward.
It looks concours to me and it'll look concours to everyone else (except probably you).
Don't let a dealer get too rich out of it.
So, very near £20k then. Not much less. Don't under sell it (at least not 'till it's hung aound on the forecourt for a few months).

Superb Barry - absolutely superb

looks concours to me as well Barry, good luck with the sale.

I'm with Paul on this Barry

don't undersell it
its bloody gorgeous


Jp

That car is better than when it rolled off the production line.

Great work.

Wow that looks stunning. I'm sure most of the Triumph lot know about it but if not I'm co-driving with my cousin, on the 10CR on thursday, in his GT6. I'll spread the word.
