There is a lot more cars involved for me has always been perhaps the biggest interest over the years alongside with "realsports" like football, golf,karate,tennis.

At  this time i have realized that i have to focus at one thing at the time so now i have built our house almost from the beginning and have also done my other cars i have one 69-Sting Ray one 325cabrio, also have a 55 beetle a 64 beetle dragracer one 67 project streetracer one restored 74 Jeansbeetle so if you guys have a thread for showing your other cars i might show them there also in a near future plans is to build a new 2332cc turbo engine just waiting for some parts i really like to have it done this year so i can go to SCC and race.

For sure i will, its always fun with the hospitality and we are all interested of aircooled cars.

Been to BugRun in Sweden but im sorry to say its a lot more party there and they dont always seems to be there for the cars can feel the lack of interest, more for the party wich naturally is fun also :beer:

How about you do you live close to Oslo or is it a long way to go?

cheers
michael ;)

Cool,, if there is anything left in Losen after the trip to the Pod, I'll bring him and have a go.
We are staying at Skjøgestad motel,,just a testdrive away from  Mantorp. We have done this for years.

With a turbo on that motor u are getting together,u will have yourself a  killer

Long time.. I will not race with the old pickup but i did put in a race gearshifter from Berg's that was a tremendous difference.

Did also change something else, can you see?





cheers brothers :wink

Are you going to bugrun, i will take the boat  om friday and then settle for a 200milse trip with the jeans beetle on the trailer for som straight forward driving, if you come visit us in the race pits look for my blue 64 race beetle and the other yellow jeansbug.

cheers
michael :yes
