DDK - Die Deutschen Klassiker

Congrats on the sale Barry!

Well done, she was worth it. In a fast, handsome and usable way obviously

Bert

same here knew it would go quick..

Thanks folks: I have to say when I put it back in it's stealth garage yesterday I did feel a bit gloomy. Offset somewhat by the fact that the new owner and I got on well, and that we'll probably see plenty of the car in the future.

As for me? Well, I'll concentrate on the workshop for now, but over the next year or two keep an eye out for something suitable to tuck away in the barn if anything crops up at a super-dupa price (in no particular order):

3.2 / SC to backdate into a narrow body early car (and lightened).
3.2 / SC to turn into a 'Limey' '74 Carrera looky-likey.
RHD really, really, really rusty 2.4T,E,S

Or even:

914 to convert into RHD 914/6 or supercharged 4
Smashed targa to convert into narrow bodied, flush bumpered speedster.

All RHD, or to be converted ....

Anyway, for now it'll be lots of scurrying about the workshop, and possibly a slight update of the old trusty BM.

I would like to see you do a 914 to a 914-6 I think this is going to be the move in the next few years..

Barry, can't you shoe horn a 2.4 MFI into the back of the Cappo?
Nice project that, a rear engined, light-weight, little runabout.
That'll keep you busy.

Well, someone on the Cappo site is putting a RX7 twin turbo engine in his .

Believe it or not, it just about fits, with a little help.

Doesnt Nick Moss have a very interesting early 2.7 carrera targa in his barn....? How cool would that be: a carrera RS speedster

Aaargh i have to stop drooling.

Bert

Just in case, i still have a rusty 2,4 tub

Thanks Oliver, I think I can resist at the moment .

Don't worry Barry, we already have a car that fits the bill.... RHD and needs some welding

Jesus, I thought it was a climbing frame only a weekend's work for Barry

Oh goody, an early parcel shelf to do as well: my favourite .

Alan, I've checked, and I think you should be able to sent it as a 'Large Letter' according to my Royal Mail size guide.

Don't reckon much to that roll cage Alan... :lol:

And just look at those wheels - not exactly Fuchs are they ???
