Hi everyone
I was told about DDK at Hedingham, cant believe I didn't know about it.
I purchased a RHD 1961 356 a year ago and have been getting most of my info and parts from the USA (356 Registry etc). I also have a 1996, 993, (owned since 1998 and still only 16,000 miles, its my baby, but I never get the chance to drive it much).
The 356 brings a smile to my face every time I drive it and each journey is an adventure, (something stops working, starts working or I discover something new).
Have been into VW's for 40 years and raced Formula Vee for 10 years, so know the basics.
This Sunday is drive your 356 day! Anybody doing anything in the Midlands?
Anyway I look forward to getting to know some of you soon!
Cheers AlanS

Welcome Alan.
As Sladey says, a few in and around these parts. I have a light yellow 911S, which you may have seen out and about.
We are a fairly 'broad church' on here
More interested in enjoying life and petrol fumes than the politics of forums. So enjoy.
Only requirement is post some photos
Cheers,
Ian
