New project a genuine Coca-Cola vending machine. Hope to have it restored in record time. Nice feature to have in a garage. More pics will come!
Updated the old 1950 VW Beetle page with all the pics from the build up in 2008. Cool early and rare car! Go to RIDES/PROJECTS or click here for more pics and info.
Restored this original VW Sperrwolf shifter lock awhile back. New keys, new paint and new zinc plating. This was an option that costed extra when you bought it new, but in return you got cheaper car insurence. Because the car was now harder to steal!

Found and saved this 1966 VW Beetle from a field some years back. It was just a empty shell with no motor, no fenders and no interior. It was lowered with a 6 inch narrowed front beam, dropped spindles and 3 splines in the rear. Fully polished Torque wheels was rare back then. Was a cool car for sure! In rust we trust!
Started to build my own sandblasting cabinet some weeks back. Built it in a size thats not to small and not to big. In this cabinet its possible to blast a front beam to a VW bus/Beetle, perfect! Finished it today and started to test on some rust parts. Using aliminiumsilikat. Here are some pics on before and after.

Replacing all rust with new metal on Benny’s bus, the VW transporter from 1983. Hope to finish the rest tonight and then it’s ready for sanding/bodywork/paint. New rubberseals for the all 6 windows, new bushings for frontend and new mirrors from Just Kampers.
Got loads of brand new parts from Justkampers today. Wow what a quick delivery! Basicly a new bus chassi in parts. Removed front beam, torsionarms and brakes. I think every nut and bolt had to be cut, they were froozen stuck! But it dosen’t matter everything going to be replaced with new parts anyway. Need to remove all chassi parts for sandblasting and painting!
