Finally: Dinkel is a carjourno

A handful of 911 - 33 mates joined me in an autumn Dawn Raid to the Dutch biggest classic Porsche dealer:

Mercedes-AMG E53 for Dutch magazine SL Mercedes Revue:

[dinkel]

6C 1500 (1927–1929) Alfa looks basic but is a true 20s sportscar. This blackie is one of 3.000.


Restoring this to new would be a sin.

[dinkel]

So, this is how a classic 911 in Rally spec looks like eh? Hardcore.

Mercedes-AMG GT 4-Door Coupé:

Perfect family hack


MB interiors are the best. They really are.


That nose...

[dinkel]

Regular outing with da Porsche boys.

Alfa Romeo 8C Cabrio nose.

Legendary Sam van Lingen workshop is a true timecapsule. Famous Nord magician brother Fred is still serving the Dutch Alfa Romeo community excellent tuned engines. Love to wander around here.


Hustling the new Kia ProCeed around (summer 2019) and dropping by at Alfa legend Rik Zuurbier's outfit.


You gotta love the period Alfa Rome wheels...

18-07-2020 Alpine Run Munsterhuis:

Inspecting Ferrari yum before we jump in the Alpines.


Yup, it's gorgeous but I prefer the GT4. - Stick that plate on!

British Royalty

A day out with Cor Millenaar Mercedes-Benz (Aalsmeer) clients:

230SL auto looks a peach. Cor trusted me with the dark blue 500SL.


190SL (on Webers) and drop dead gorgeous 300SL Roadster on wires.


Super trio! Rudge on a Roadster!

These photos are something else, just drooled a little for some of them?

Ever do any photos for any UK publications / sites?

[dinkel]

Well, back in the days I published some stuff, even on PH.
From 2017-2019 I was lead-editor for a few car magazines.
Every now and then I do a reportage.
Thx and good to read you like it

1968 Porsche 912 in Irish Green:

In my eye the 912 stands as the best looking 911-shape.


Perfect. And with a 90 brake Solex fed 1.6 a great runner.


The colour...

[dinkel]

Most probably the most underestimated youngtimer so far:

Lexus LS400 from the early 90s.

In my view this tops a period Mercedes-Benz S-Class

[dinkel]

A good morning out with the 'new' Alpine A110:

Upgraded Pure to 18" Fuchs, better brakes, 16 mm drop and 30% stiffer Life110 Ohlins. Looks great in dark blue.


Outing with 5 of 'em.


Great lines here and there.

[dinkel]

Glorious Renault Juva:

French post-war workhorse basically the R4 daddy.


Interior is pretty spartan...


Glorious details.

[dinkel]

When everything electric works an Aston Martin Lagonda is a thing of beauty and joy. Really a 2+2 with vast luggage space.


"Let's dump the body here..."


IMO Tadek Marek 5.3 litre V8 is the equivalent of today's AMG 6.3

[dinkel]

Cute pair of 500s.


Interesting Alfa Romeo monoposto.

Rally spec Alfa Romeo Giulietta 1300 (now 1600). Start of a Dawn Raid with 25-ish Alfa and Porsche fans. Unfortunately half way the Alfa had to let us go.
