Interior panels getting ready

I cleaned the interior panels and glued some of the parts where the trim had got loose. Adjusted and fitted new padding to the c-pillars of the car.

Period correct tools

Today I got some more or less period correct tools :) One stroboscope timing light and one dwell tachometer. My old timing light was broken, so this was a great gift. The tachometer is an analog one, so it will look a lot better together with the squareback than my fancy digital one ;)

Finally!

After a long journey, we've finally arrived :) The squareback got it's license plates back yeasterday, and is now ready to go!

Das Feuerwagen goes... and goes... and goes!

More action from the 71 bus, and it's driver Vemund. Not the fastest car on the track this weekend, actually it was the slowest. But the smile on Vemunds face was one of the largest (The CSP team and Ron Lumus had the largest I think... when they finally got the Razoredge roaming down the strip).

JS vs Mr Stensrød

Duell of Fredrikstad, which one is the fastest in town?


YouTube Video


Brannmann Simensen goes racing!

Best pal Vemund let his original firebus loose on the tracks of Gardermoen International Raceway today, at the SCC race n' show (www.sccevent.com). Check out the video... not the fastest bus in the world, but oh what fun! (stock 1600 dualport engine, and stock transmission).




Edit: added the last run today, it's also the fastest at 23,5.

Rear brakes overhauled

Changed/cleaned rear brakes and oilseals. There had been a leak of transmission oil, so everything smelled like sh...! And with four new tyres the car is as safe as it can be :)
