First the brakes... then the generator

The brakes are now ok, but a week ago my generator failed. I finally got it changed today, but it wasn't a pleasant job since its 30 degrees outside... and thats not what we're used to in Norway :P The new front seats have been mounted, and they are just awesome! Tomorrow I'll have to start the work with the new front wings, as the car MUST be ready for the VW Internationals show this weekend.

Brake failure, and more...

Lost all brake preassure two weeks ago on Spot, but since it's dual circuit it didn't create any dangerous situation. Found a leak on the breakpipe inside the car, it made a real mess. Changed the pipe, but then I found out that the hydraulic cylinder on the left rear wheel leaked. I also have to change the oil seal and bearings on the rear wheel, so I'll do it while the brake drum is off.

What I should have been doing instead of this, is change front seats and front wings... but that will have to come later (or inbetween).
