There was a pair of DDS 13x5's, sitting unused and unwanted, over the door, on a shelf, in the back room of VW Paradise, in San Marcos, CA for many years... I didn't want them, too short and small for anything I wanted to do, and finally, Dave Conklin from Dayton, OH, was out for the VW Classic, went to an open house at VW Paradise, asked about them, and they GAVE them to him. _________________ 2003 Samba Chummie Winner- Best Story

I've owned these for a while. I'm running them with Jackman caps since the DDS caps are in bad shape.

Im looking for 1 or 2 13" Dino Dinosaur Front rims and 2 rear Rims. I have had my car for 42 years and it had 13" ftont DD rims but over ther past 42 years 1 rim came up missing.
Its time to get it back to the way it was when I built it 42 years ago so I can enjoy it again. 951545 4two8one.
PS: After dealing with a SCAMMER for the past 3 days that was using all the pictures from this post I desided to put a post here because it looks like everyone on this post have knowledge about DDS. |
