RÈSUMÈ OF WEEK 18 / 19

UNA VISITA A ESPANA PART 2: NOW, LISTEN TO THIS STORY. IT ALL BEGAN IN 1987. TOM & JJ FOUND A NICE FIRST HAND OVAL NEAR LUGANO / TICINO / SWITZERLAND. JJ BOUGHT THE CAR RIGHT AWAY AND BROUGHT IT DIRECTLY INTO HIS GARAGE IN BASEL. THERE THE CAR WAS WAITING FOR A RESTORATION. BUT JJ FRITTER AWAY TIME AND LOST INTERESTS ON VEE-DUBS. HE SOLD THE CAR TO PIERO TERUEL WHO OWNED A BODY SHOP IN ANGENSTEIN / SWITZERLAND AT THAT TIME. SOON, PIERO STARTED WITH THE RESTORATION OF HIS NEW OVAL WINDOW BUG........AND HE WAS FAST......AFTER A COUPLE OF MONTHS THE CAR WAS READY FOR THE STREET. THE BUG WAS LOWERED AT ALL 4 CORNERS, FITTED WITH 356 PORSCHE CHROMISE & A 1835 CC ENGINE. IN 1994 PIERO AND HIS FAMILY EMIGRATED TO MURCIA / SPAIN. A COUPLE OF MONTHS AGO PIERO SENT ME SOME NICE PICS OF ALL HIS VEHICLES HE OWNS IN SPAIN RIGHT NOW. I WAS VERY SURPRISED...HE STILL HAS THE OVAL WINDOW BUG AND THE CAR LOOKS STILL LIKE AT THE FIRST DAY AFTER THE RESTORATION. AND NOW, THE BEST AT THE END..........PIERO TOLD ME THAT HE & HIS FAMILY MISS SWITZERLAND A LOT AND THEY WILL RE- EMIGRATE TO THE ,, EIDGENOSSENSCHAFT,, SOON. U ARE WELCOME ,, PIERUELS ,, I HOPE THEY WILL TAKE ALL THEIR CARS WITH`EM & THEY WILL BE E11 MEMBERS AGAIN, LIKE YEARS BEFOR. CHEERS TOM

1ST TRIP / 1ST BREAKDOWN: AFTER A EAZY TUNE UP ON RENES LATEST SPLIT, TOM & RENE WERE READY FOR A 1ST TESTDRIVE. THE WEATHER WAS NICE AND THE BUG STARTED RIGHT AWAY. RENE ADDED FUEL, CHECKED THE OIL & AIRPRESSURE OF THE NOS TIRES. AFTER A SHORT DRIVE THE CAR BEGAN TO SMELL OF GASOLINE AND THE ENGINE STARTED TO STUTTER. DAMNED, SOMETHING DID NOT WORK CORRECT, BUT WHAT HAPPEND? 55 KM LATER THE CAR STOOD STILL. FIRST WE DID NOT LOCATE THE ERROR AND WE TOWED THE CAR BACK TO THE GARAGE. SOMETHING WAS WRONG WITH THE GASOLINESYSTEM.....BUT WHERE? AFTER A WHILE WE FOUND THE FAILURE. IT WAS THAT FUCKING LITTLE BOLT ON THE FUEL PUMP WHICH WAS LOOSENED. RENE FIXED UP THE WHOLE FUEL PUMP AND.......THE CAR DRIVES PERFECT NOW. LETS START THE SEASON.....

WE FADE TO GREY: STILL ONE OF MY FAVORITE SONGS OF THE 80S, PERFORMED BY ,, VISAGE ,,! WHAT I DONT LIKE ON THIS TITLE IS.....THE ONLY ONE WHOS FADE TO GREY, ITS ME. ( NOT THE CARS )
