Collecting new pieces


As the winter is closing in on us, I'm preparing to take on a new project in the Sechs Volt garage. This is in true Sechs Volt style a typical forest-wreck-object that needs to be put back to life. I have already done two Type 1 rescues, and therefore know a little about buying projects in cardboard boxes. There are always a lot of bits missing, so you need to have spare parts at hand. Of course this time the bar is raised further more, as the bits and pieces for this car is hard to get. This weekend was a swap market in Oslo, and by a strike of luck I found a matching pair of headlamps for the new project. They were maybe a year to new, estimated to be 1954 lamps.

They may give you a clue of what's about to roll into Knechtens Vintage Barn in the near future...
And the search for further parts continue =)
