The end is near?

PANIEIEIEIEIEIEK!!!!

the sidescreen came off!!

No serieus, it did come off... the thing you're lookin' at is the inside of the trunk and cabine...

why oh why oh why..

Becouse I spend a daytrip to the northern part of holland, By public transit (8 horribly slow hours)...

to get this piece

Wich the untrained eye might also recognize as the missing part. The sidescreen.

In our yet uncompleted attempts at restoring the side finally started to take some shape in the good direction with this. An complete sidefender with all the nice curvies and roundings.

So after an horrible day today this baby did a reasonable job of chearing the both of us up so homecoming could be as good as the day starter.

But that is not all!

The rear axle is finally on his way, half mounted, the front is on wheels, with disks and all.

So there has been some progress since last writings.

Nothins really finished yet but 'l automobile is nearly getting ready to stand on all fours.

eaven the ride hight with the old springs came out pretty nice in the front. The upcoming weeks will be about getting the sides reasonably straight en mounting the rear wheels.

and that's about a wrapper for it all

here some pictures:

The new mountings of the rear axle (if u look wel you can see the upper reaction arm of the 4-link construction we fabricated)

Front wheels fitted

And the diskbrakes behind the wheels. I know these aren't the previous announced wheels... after some exchange of words we agreed on some scrapyard stuff. So after lookin' all over this came up. Traded in them old 4 holed wheels so these 5 bud suckers could be fitted.

Not shabby if I say so myself.

And that was that.

So till next time,

shrimpy.
