DDK - Die Deutschen Klassiker

A few from their 50th Anniversary Celebration weekend…

As ever one car stood out from the crowd ….



Peter Lovett's 74 RSR….





…now those are arches….





…a few more from the Peter Lovett collection, lucky man …..

Peter Morgans restored 911S….





Some gorgeous cars on display….









…and some, well…less so! ….

Beginning to warm to the early IB's….



…and being drawn to 964's….



…when it comes to Top Trumps nothing beats this….yours for the equivalent of about 10 2.4E's ….



…took the 993 for a (rare this summer) drive afterwards and still love it to be bits…don't think I'll be parting with it anytime soon…and why would I? …



Cheers,

Darren - that's a '74 3.0 RS ...

Whoops, that's what I meant.

Great photos Darren. Some nice cars pictured there.
I'm sure the funny colour green one was at Heddingham last week.

Yep, your car looked perfect Darren. Great pics and a nicely done event, PC Swindon can really put on a show of customer cars, over 20. But with so many immaculate and well used 911's it's impossible for me to name a favourite.

Given that Peter Lovett's Peking - Paris car has been so successfully hard driven across nearly 8000 mls, there's hardly a mark on it. Lovely car.

Yep, it'll turn up for any ol' event and it'll be needing a new funny colour green badge soon

Don't think so Paul, just a really common car/colour combo…….every meet, every event, every other car magazine cover, they're all over the bloody place! …..

Too right! We need more green cars

Got any more early S detail pics Darren?

And for 993 fans that white C2 was perfect, as was it's big brother GT2.

Hi Darren,

great pictures and your car looks lovely. Do you know any more details of Peter Morgans car as it has an uncanny resemblance to mine. Obviously my car is a lwb 69 car but the reg isn't too far away

First time I'd seen the car in the flesh, thought I knew the number plate!

Peter documented his rebuild with a number of videos which can be seen here… http://www.youtube.com/petermorgan911 …I've not caught up with them for a while although have to thank Peter for pointing me in the direction of Nick Fulljames with his engine rebuild clip.

Cheers,
