porsche 912 - out in the cold

we took the 912 porscha out of the garage...its heading to kangasniemi as well... theres some machining needed for the brakes...and some other stuff as well... the 3.0 engine is half teared apart... i still like the body very much, and it can keep the sad sun burned look for now, but im not out of the ideas...thats for sure. i got two wheels from the UB-52 (check out tomi s. blog its pretty cool) and after one minute they looked pretty niiiice. (a bit alfa romeo style)

Jussi Jyranko from Kuplapaja took care of the delivery, and he also brought a Karmann Ghia pan to the garage....hmmmm... theres gonna be some tubbing, slamming, shortening, and more for that... ok, i think ill shorten it 20 cm to get it under the Steyr 55 ... well even two weld racing wheels came along... :-)

- i feel better than James Brown! -

christmas coming early? part 2

i got a pair of the famous karpiola race axles, and they really came in time... the problem seems to be that for a small company like karpiola bros, its not so easy to make so many axles that would sell (probably) but they are payed, and at my hands. :-) so whats missing? well...a transmission that can take the punishment? well ...its coming from rancho performance... (rancho seems to be THE transmission shop) :-) check them out...
