Food for thought while you wait...

Question Singer/Alton's Fuchs: now made by Zuffenhaus through Fikse

Back on topic with 17" Singer green, & Zuff Fuchs...

Zuffenhaus (originally designed by RLer Jeff Alton) has an overt web page that clearly states their wheels are used on the Singer vehicles.

However, I had read that Zuffenhaus was having problems with a supplier, resulting in delayed delivery.
T Screw, I don't think that's impacted you.

Recently, Fikse posted this on their website:

Zuffenhaus has teamed with FIKSE Motosports to significantly reduce manufacturing and delivery times for this custom made, limited volume product.
So, Singer's Jeff Alton Fuchs are by Zuffenhaus through Fikse

Fikse's "Fuchs:"







Singer's promotional images with the exact same wheels:

It is correct. Fikse is in the mix....three parties involved. Re: delays, let's just say three parties involved with varying cue's of work ahead of my project.

Thx....Hope to get it home to Bloomfield Hills, MI when complete....It will have a secondary residence at Porsche Beachwood (East Cleveland Metro) where my team of experts have been puling together the tweaks to the car...

Twin Screw,
My race numbers are closer to acid green than the green on my car, and now that I am blue, I do not have a use for them. They are magnetic. If you are interested, let me know and I'll send them your way.

Love the Acid green accents !
Would do it to my car but it is red and it would not work.
