Last a picture of Daniels Resto looker when he was visit me yesterday.

Front suspension adjustment

Becuase of the change to a new beam I hade to make a front suspension adjustment. EMTE däck "tire" helped me with that. Even if it was low it was no problem. Marcus who did the adjustment made a good job.
Patric from Garage Axheden helped me out with the transportation up to EMTE däck.
There is still some space up to the engine.
Marcus did a serious job. The only thing that wasn't perfekt was the caster. With some caster chims even that would be 100% good.
Marcus in action. I made i very easy for him to make the adjustments. I hade not any front hood or gas tank erected.

Back in Sweden again

After some nice weeks over in the USA am I now back at my home. I was out at my garage yesterday to start up and try to do something useful. It took me an hour or two to start up. In the beginning it was just too cold :) I bought some new stuff this trip to. New Simpson Latch & Link Lap Belts for my kids so they sit as safe as possible. For myself I bought Simpson Latch F/X Driver Restraint Systems. This if I will get out on the track again to kick some plastic fantastic cars.

I have updated my PURCHASE & SELL. Take a look and see if there is something intresting.

Here I started mount the Harness/belts. I have also started to fix all cables around the battery. I will take away some of the stuff there that I don't use. In the other opposite side will I mount my new Harman/Kardon CA280. This will give enough with power to my new DLS R1070 Reference that I will have in the space behind the back seat.

The new pulley in place. It was not too bad.

USA tour 1 vistit at Smiff's place

Today I went up to McDonough and again made a stop at Summit racing. After that I went to Kevin Smith alias "Smiff'". Smiff is a member of the BKC and owns a orange -56 ragtop that he has won a bunch of trophy with.
This VW is a real beauty.
Kevin's 2332cc build by Chico Performance Racing. Kevin got 169hp at the Dyno day.
The interior in this car is just awesome. The balance between all the parts is just so OK.
Now some picture from Kevin garage. His garage is just too good. Who would not like to have this place to play in :D
Last a picture of Kevin to the right and his friend and chef for the day Dino.Thanks for the visit Kevin and the good food.
I look forward to see you again next year.
Right now I just want to fly home and finish my own car before the summer. But most of all meet my girls that i miss a lot.
