Ice Ice baby.........

Romy's new ride is shipped, and will be here upcoming monday!
So a new early '50s ride will scrape the lowlands this spring :)

I tried to pick the car up myself, but with -17 degrees it won't be an easy job to drive a car like that though the snow with minimal heating!

Now fingers crossed they won't hit an iceberg like the Titanic!

done!

Finished the '64 tonight!

Almost 1,5" tucking on each side......looks good to me :)

Together with a set of dropped spindles and 135/70/15 tires, this car has a perfect stance for a daily driver!

3" beam for a 1964!

Is this what they mean with "the broken axle look" ? :D
Fixing up a 3" beam for some friends from the south.
In the meantime my friend Bjorn "worked" on his new 1641cc.........hmmm, it looked like he had other things in mind then cilinders and bearings :)

Swapmeet Mol

We went to Mol today with Janneke and Steve!
Always a good show, with loads of parts.
Needed a set of 7x17" polished fuchs, and a set of Enkei 5'spokes.......but both wheels were not for sale at this show :(
Too bad!!
So we had some beers and talked to a looooooooooot of friends :)
And we made some pics as usual.
check out the meeting page for more pics !

Romy's old Oval is in good hands!
She found her place in a small private collection near the border of Austria, where she sits next to a '52 Porsche 356a.......what a cute couple!!
I got these pictures from the new owner, awesome!

Split personality

This would make a nice rat for this summer!
Should I buy it ??

1961

That's a good year!
Especially when it's a turkish blue beetle, with steeringwheel, seatbelts, shifter and seatframes originally painted n lightblue.......
Really wanted to keep this ride and slam it to the max, but you know how I am.......everything is for sale for a good price.
So this sweet '61 will be cruising near Dordrecht from now on!
Now we have to search for transport for Romy's new ride.....that's a hell of a job :(

'57 adopted in Rosenheim

Today Romy's sweet oval was picked up to rest her days in Rosenheim, near the border of Austria.

It was with pain in our heart.....but Romy set her goal for another sweet ride, so the oval had to go to achieve this dream!

Keep an eye on our blog, because in a short matter of time this project will start, and we will keep you up to date on this ride!

And I can assure you, it will be aircooled, pre '57, slammed, narrowed, aproved, as you may expect from a ride that comes out of our stables ;)

Toni, I hope you have as much fun with the oval as we had the last 2 years!

KWF 2010

Yesterday we made a shortstop at the Kever Winter Festijn in Holland.

The weatherforcast looked horrible, but untill 17.00 the roads where good to drive on.
But at the time we drove home the A12 looked more like a place for iceskating then for driving :)

We made it home, and had a nice day in Rosmalen!

Didn't make a lot of pictures........too cold outside, and not to much news to see inside.

But, ofcourse some teasers!

the rest can be found here, on the KWF 2010 page.

(Or go to the meeting menu on the left.)

Last tuesday we had our anual wintercruisenight!
Not much aircooled cars showed up, but nevertheless it was nice to see everybody for a drink....and not to forget the bus competition :)
Everybody made a lot of work of their 1:14 scalemodel, and the 1st price went to the camper on BRM's, CONGRATULATIONS!
