Good evening Mike  Smiley,

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.  Cool

It will be interesting to see where this one goes Smiley

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.... Shocked

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

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

Different logo  Undecided 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  Smiley

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.
