Good evening Mike  :),

If this does happen, do you think it will have an effect on the prices of original parts?

Marting, how r u doing.

FLat 4 repos didn't make a dent on empi prices.

But if these are authentic to the orginal designs.  Then I would probably step up and buy a set.  Got to compete with Erco on price though.

Not too bad thanks Mike, hope all's well with you.  8)

It will be interesting to see where this one goes :)

Side tracking ever so slightly, I do like BRM's and must confess to contemplating momentarily getting a set of the latest Flat 4 versions, but they'd perhaps look rather odd on my `71.... :o

;D

that's don lowry from the DDS family , if he redo some dds parts  those will be real one not repop so  may be the price will go down with a new DDS production  , because people will buy those new parts  and they will be  better and may be stronger that the old one

would like to have a set of real  DDS wheels and new one would be better

That would be cool. I know I would buy a set and I wouldn't have to hunt for them anymore  8)

Don told me the logo will be different.
So the collector market will not be affected buy a new production run.

Different logo  :-\ The rim's never had a logo on them and the shifters only had a sticker (that can be removed) so that leaves the engine item's so now we know Don could be making engine items too now....Very nice  :)

Yep, that's what he said on the post on thesamba.com. But he also said that he will think about it only if people have interest in his project.
