the ugly ducling is gone...

The ugly duckling is at m.särkeläs place, for a "small treatment"

Even the former owner said that the heater channels are rock solid, it didnt take much to see thaT they need replacement, we will try to fix the front light problem also. 

Im happy that mika is doing this, because he has lots of knowhow to these kind of customs, :-)

...even this car looks bad as hell, i really like it, its bad enough that you can do things with it!

well, to the tin-man. :-) lets see how it turns out...

That has to befrankensteins car....

the ugly duckling - the ghia that didn´t get ANY love :-)

 ok, no one wanted to buy it, so i had to spoil it!
...the other side is still like before...
this was "U-duckies" first day out,
rolling... with bigger boots on the left legs...

from this (before) ... turn the other cheek...

to a "These boots were made for walking over U"...

...cut some inches of the wheel arches, 

some suspension-drop, flares, big wheels, 

...some other "future tricks" etc... le voilà!

ok, some adjustment needed in here, ;-)

4 the bumper, headlights etc.

now its a FUGLY-DUCKling, with muscles.

rothams racing - velj. hämärä panel

i have a mania to do things now, OK its the tough mixup of 35 pills daily, but i´m goint to take advantage of it, if i can. and go with the flow.. ;-) heck i even will start to "train" welding - i have to, :-)

have to do some iterior stuff + fix ups for the panel, some panel to dead the sound, and many small things, but before it will go out off traffick for a good and long night sleep. i have a master plan, n*2 for my winter driving...that will be something pretty interesting. ok, have to asdmit, it will not be LOOOOOW, it will NOT HAVE porsche brakes, and yeas, something that doesnt run water in the heads... :-) maybe an webasto or similar heater...

jesus is coming? - act busy - veljekset hämärä paku

theres a awesome light in the cottage, and i have to use it in my pics.

ok, maybe you are getting bored, but what the hell...  be my guest. :-)

ghia convert - on the run.

after many hours of work in kuplapaja, the vert woke up, and wanted home. ok, there were many isuues still to fix but... i wanted to take the "tub" home. for the cruise, it could´nt have been better... it was a warm summer night and i felt great! i also drove the car to our cottage, lost the brakes too, so i had to fix them before driving any further... there was 4 bars air in the tyres so the suspension felt a bit tough, ...and looks like i have to buy also new shocks, to get a better ride.

harley update @ nummi-pusula - ITS Awesome.

nothing beats (almost) riding a harley in twisty roads. its just so awesome, V2 sounds just right, 30 degrees hot, sun is shining all the time... huh...JIMI likes the bike very much, JIMI´s mom was a bit confused because the bike didnt look like it used to look... ;-)

but its great to be at home for a day, in a bit cooler than in Nummi-pusula, (38° celsius in the shadow) :-( tooooo warm.
