Rollin'




There has not been to much update on this blog lately. I've mostly been working on details for the car, that will be revealed when the car is driving. Building up for a surprise moment? In a way it's fun to show up in the spring with a car no one has seen before. My biggest consern these days is the time aviable to finish the car. I'm about to reach a critical stage in building my family a new house, and that sucks up a lot of time. But the main goal, given the limited time for VW these days, the car will be rooling at the end of april. The chassie is almost complete, and fitting brake parts and bleeding brakes should make it ready. The bodywork is mainly done, and a finishing coat of color is left to do. The engine will be fitted in early may, and hopefully with some "tuning" of the whole car, it will roll it's maiden voyage to Sweden in early june. I promise to release some more footage as we reach may, and the car is really coming together... The photo show what's going on these days =)

Hei
Det har vært spennende å følge restaureringen av min gamle VW. Håper jeg får anledning til å ta den i øyensyn når den vakker dag igjen er på veien. Lykke til videre ;-)

Morsomt at du følger med her. Det har gått med noen timer nå siden bilen ble hentet, men lyset i tunnelen begynner å åpenbare seg. Regner med litt prøvekjøring på forsommeren, og skal få lagt turen innom en dag. Den er jo fortsatt i "nabolaget".
