DDK - Die Deutschen Klassiker

Finally decided to get my daily driver 912 stripped & repainted for the summer. Needs rear window repairs to make it water tight for next winter but decided a good time for a colour change.








need some new front wings...


bumpers shot blasted and prep started


Front all sound..

Moving on quite fast...

doors & engine lid all sound and prepped..

Whoa, hold back a bit - at this rate you'll be finished by your 3rd post Your car looks great and love the colour as it is

Good luck with the project.
Darren

cheers Darren... fast progress of the last couple of weeks...
Rear wing repaired where previous arch was not seam sealed many years back.



This rear window is going to slow progress though

Front windscreen corner repaired



no rot on nearside wing


Front scuttle repair needed however the white scuttle that was going to be used seems to have a different design airbox. The original is elongated with a bulge at the top. The white one underneath is just oblong. Any ideas what year this changed?

Rear window repair sections started.

One side nearly complete and just the centre section to weld in next week..

Front wing trial fitting

lovely bit of work there owen nw

Thx It's coming along quickly in between the other projects.



last chance I've got to choose the colour... black or OG SB

keep it the original colour; looks
great work, can i ask why the two wings are different colour? did you strip the e-coat off or was it bare metal when you got it?

Coming on well! Keep the original colour, looks good on an early car.

Ditto.

Yes the wings came like that... but the one without the coating is a better fit so assume there are a couple of suppliers for these Porsche wings?

Still un-decided on the colour... Love SB but also like the lines when they are black....

Go for black much better than yucky brown

headlining out....

Dash top out

Front scuttle repair...

speaker has seen better days...

Slow progress so got dashboard blasted and zinc-primed ready for re-covering
