Burnin' the midnight oil in the garage,Jan is makin' some progress on his world class Ghia project. This car impresses me every time I visit "Langeberg". One of the nicest lowlight convertibles you'll ever see !!!

Mr.Riishedes oval looker has now recieved a beautiful "splash" of shiny L11 paint, all thanks to paint-gunslinger, Mr. Niels Erik Kristensen ! The car is looking very nice from all angles indeed,-but pity about that great ol' dent under the rear seat.....:)

Dragracing/Sweden/The 80's

This chopped Notch was ( and still is) owned by CSP founder Mr.Keith Steinick.These pictures were taken at Mantorp Park,Sweden, back in 85. I saw this car on the strip a couple of times,-powered by a 3,0 l. ARPM engine.Can't remember the E.T.'s though.....??

Danish Nostalgia

Back in the early 80's, some guys from Herning,DK, tried to organize some street/dragracing. Two of the aircooled enthusiasts who attended this event was Mr.Keld Hejlesen ( top picture, 150 hp.2,0 l.type 4 engine) and Mr. Frank Andersen( ? hp.2,?l.type 4 engine) both guys from Aalborg. The IDA's ( now 51,3 mm.) from the split is owned by Mr.Elnef, and the filters and manifolds "lurkes" in my garage somewhere... ;) Pictures from Herning back then,courtesy of Mr.R.Lokdam. ( scanning by Mr.Riishede :) )

"Reload"-sneak peek....

86 mm. type 4 crank.......

Join the club.....

Mr. K.Riishede,Copenhagen,has bought this fine T34 Ghia. This car won't hit the streets until Kim's super nice calloker is finished though :)

Light beige 275....

For several years ,Mr.M.Berg,Copenhagen, has been in search of an oval model vw. The car had to be something special, and Michael didn't count on finding it here in DK....But suddenly this gem came up for sale on the internet. There IT was !!!!! This june 54,totally "unscrewed" oval,had been hidin' in the back of a dealership for the last 25 years. The car is now getting the "berg" treatment : 1776 IDA engine,gasburners ( no repro !! ),correct taillights,etc.etc.....This is going to be one VERY nice looker !! :)

Here's to you, Mr.Tipsmark :)

Mr.G.Tipsmark wrote something on his superb blog :http://www.life-and-cars-of-gustavt.blogspot.com/ which made me think of this old picture. Could this be some of the famous elusive parts ?? :)

Mr.Riishede,...a black pan fan...

Lookin' good so far,-can't wait so see more of this project :)

Tom K....

Danish autocross-guy,Mr.Tom Kristiansen, was out testing his vee-dub for the first time.In this race Tom came in on a fourth place, which is not to shabby,considering the engine that powers this vehicle is a "reserve" unit :)

Danish Nostalgia

Also Mantorp 85'.Car owned by Mr.Frank Andersen,Aalborg,DK. This car exists,in a quite different style,today, but the Ghia,....I'm not sure ??
