Progress... slowly...

There's actually some progress on the Squarback, or more presicly on the bumpers :) Started with some polishing today, but there's plenty more. Next year... it may be back on the road (and at least the bumpers will be shining).

Budget painting!

I recently bought "How to paint your car on a budget" from Amazon, and recommended it to Vemund... and look, he bought it to :) It's the best book about car painting I've seen so far. And it's actually written so you can do it on a budget... other "home painting" books goes on about a lot of expensive stuff you really don't need.

On Sunday I ordered a new 34 pict 3 carburettor for Spot... I was actually just checking prices, and suddenly I had placed an order ;) Hopefully this will sort out the troubles I've been having. Hope it'll arrive my mail tomorrow!

I've been bizzy the last days as you can see :) I've started to clean and polish the lights on the Squerback. It's clear that all the rubber has to go, 40 years has taken its toll it seems. Also started dismantling of the bumpers, and they're also in need of a good cleaning and polish.

Where did this year go...

Oh my... it's almost gone a whole year since my last update. And I can't say I've got much done one the Squareback. I rebuilt Spots engine tough... will post pics soon... promise!

Progress :)

There haven't been many updates lately, but there is progress inn the Garage. Wings and bumpers have been taken off the car. Have also started to remove paint and stuff... (I think we just call it "stuff"... there's many different types of body filling all over the car). Some rust have been discovered, more than I hoped (and knew about). But nothing realy dangerous though, but I need a welder and some sheet metal :P

Winter approaching...

Brrr... it's getting colder, and I wouldn't be surprised if it's coming snow soon. But the Spot is fitted with winter tyres, and the heat is pretty good. I'm hoping to connect the petrol heater as soon as possible though...

The project in the garage these days is the Varian (Squareback). I've started to dismantle it, and the goal is to have it back on the road for the summer... so stay tuned :D
