  1. Hello boys n girls !

    It´s been a while but anyway .. I´m sitting here with my friend mr. Jägermeister and thinking about some mods for the summer.

    The props for the full army/airforce transformation is in the garage but what about turbo.. :) I´ve got the most parts and also the knowledge , I think.. ::) I got friends who has atleast, but do anyone know a english, or other, build thread for some more inspiration !? Not a race engine , I´, thinking more to get it to work with the original injection system and a low turbopressure for just some hp´s and the sound of course.. ;)
     
  2. No response of my turbo thoughts... OK, we´ll see how I do.

    Anyway, took out the Mean Green Machine from the barn for a spin in the really lovely wheather, ::) + 2 degrees, heavy rain and icy roads.. And I loved it ! ;D

    Next time it comes out on the roads it´ll be in it´s new suit ! ;)

  8. Hello Boys n Girls !

    Midsummer weekend here in Sweden and lovely weather ! 8) Going to a party later today and thought I would update this thread, it´s been a while...again...

    I´m using the army truck for a daily driver now and it works really nice, no mechanic problems what so ever and how could I live without a car with a flatbed earlier... ? :thinking:

  9. Nice find dude
     
  10. We´ll soon see how nice it is, it´s been parked a while...... ;)
     
  11. Now I finally got it home ! ;D

    After the usal struggle with all the problems with getting a car out of a field where it has been for twenty years or so,sunken and flat wheels, forgotten tools and cows around you we got it out. And it´s better then I thought actually... of course it needs some hours in the garage but... I´m pleased ! ;)

    nice find mate, keep us posted on what you are doing ;D
     
  14. Hello again !

    Summer has passed, autumn is near. Old cars gone, new cars in.

    But to begin I gotta show you the clip from Bus&Camper mag. ;) I got a mail earlier in the summer from a editor or something from just B&C that they would like some info of my Stealth SC. And here it is, kind of fun to get published ,little or big, in a worldwide magazine.. :D

    And back to the summer, I just have been going and going around in my truck to shows and as a daily driver. Very cool and useful car.. but with a DC at home I been wondering about the SC .... Sell it ? Keep it? Do a serious restoration back to OG ? Or whatever...

    But as i where sitting and looking in different ads for an possible change an Oval Beetle came up and with under five emails we has decided that we do an even change ! Quick n easy affairs ! And thats why i now got an ´56 Oval and the SC now is in Stockholm ! Nice but sad in the same time...

    But on the positive side I now gotta do some dirty work in the wintwr on the DC to have an pickup ready for beach 2013 ! :D

    So, see you when I got the grinder and welder started ! >:D
     
  15. Sorry to see it go that was one uber cool single cab

    What year passat steel wheels did you use and did they need any mods to fit?
     
  16. Mmmmm love my swedish dubs
     
  17. Thanx boys.

    The rims came from my brothers old Passat, I think it was a ´99 yearmodel. but they will probably fit anyway as long as they got 5x112 bolt pattern. The only mod I did was to make the centerhole bigger for the two in the front. I used a normal die grinder.

    And now its on ! Projekt DoppelKabine !

    I´ve just started the dirty work in the garage so there is not much to show yet but I will post here so you can see when, or if.. it happens anything.

    Wish me luck ! ;)
