The new pan

The original pan is a little rusty.

Instead of changing the pan halves I picked up another pan in ok condition. On the good side the paint has been stripped so it's almost ready for a new coat. On the bad side two minor repairs have been done to it that are visible. I might redo them but I'm not sure.

The tear down - Not the original wings

Anorack / thermos time.

A mate from our garage said that the head light bucket indicates that the wings are from the oval era. I recogniced the colour as Jungle Green which was only available in 1955.

Finally inside "Der Schweinhaus" November 1st

Start of the new project.

A 59 that's going to be transformed to a split.

The 59 had been stored in a barn in southern Sweden for a long time until another member of our local club found it and towed it home. I bought it from him about two years ago.
