RÈSUMÈ OF WEEK 16 / 17
TUBED FROG: I BELIVE ITS ABOUT 23 YEARS AGO THAT I TOOK THOSE PICS IN THE SAN JOSE / CALIFORNIA AREA. THIS SUPER COOL ROADSTER WAS BUILD AND OWNED BY HENRY WEHR BACK THEN. BASIC WAS A 61 BERLINE WHERE THE TOP WAS CUT OFF. CHASSISWISE HENRY BUILD A MIX OUT OF TUBE FRAME, 911 PORSCHE FRONT & REAR SUSPENSION, 914 5 SPEED TRANS AND A 1835CC TYP 1 MIDENGINE WITH PORSCHE DOGHOUSE. TODAY I STILL THINK.....MAYBE I SHOULD BUILD A CLONE OF THIS EXTRAORDINARY 80s WORKMANSHIP....
AND ANOTHER BAD DAY: BURNT DOWN LAST SEASON ON THE ,,AUTOBAHN,,
AFTER THE INFERNO APPARENTLY NOTHING OF THE BUG WAS FOR USE AGAIN. REGARDLESS OF ALL THAT SHIT, SOME GERMANS BOUGHT & SHIPPED THE CAR BACK TO THE ,,VATERLAND,,
HITLERS REVENGE: SEEN IN SCANDINAVIA. VERY PROVOCATIVE LETTERING, DONT U THINK SO?
WELCOME TO DA CONTAINER: I COULD WRITE A BOOK ABOUT THIS FIND BUT I WILL CUT SHORT THE STORY. RENE READ A AD IN A FARMERS MAGAZINE WHICH SAID; VW KÄFERHÄÜSCHEN & TEILE ZU VERKAUFEN. MUSS ABGEHOLT WERDEN.
AFTER 2 OR 3 PHONE CALLs, WE TOOK OUR CARS & TRAILERS AND WENT TO THE PLACE WHERE THE TREASURE WAS LOCATED. WHAT WE HAVE FOUND WAS A CLOSED CONTAINER WHICH WAS OPENED THE LAST TIME 15 YEARS AGO. THE OWNER TOLD US THAT HE JUST DONT KNOW EXACTLY WHATS IN THERE BUT HE IS SURE THAT IT HAS 2 BUG BODIES AND SOME PARTS. AFTER WE OPENED UP THE GRAVE OF STEEL WE WERE HAPPY LIKE LITTLE KIDS......THERE WAS A 51 SPLIT, VERY COMPLETE & ALLREADY SANDBLASTED, A 58 BUG, VERY COMPLETE & SANDBLASTED, A AUTOMATIC CHASSIS, DOORS, HOODS, WHEELS, WINDOWS, ENGINES, AXLES, TRANSMISSIONS AND A TON OF SPAREPARTS. WE TOOK EVERYTHING FOR A PEANUTS. CHECK THE PICS BELOW.....INSIDE DA CONTAINER, LOADING DA SHIT & ON DA TRIP HOME. CHEERS THE ,,EINHEIT 11 TREASURE HUNTERS,,

RÈSUMÈ OF WEEK 14 / 15
REAL VS FAKE: HERE U CAN SEE TWO 356 PORSCHES. ONE IS REAL AND THE OTHER IS A REPLICA. THE BLUE ONE IS FROM THE UK & IS MADE OUT OF STEEL VS THE IVORY COLORED COMES FROM SUDAFRICA AND IS MADE OUT OF GLASS-FIBRE. THE REPLICA FITS ON A STOCK BEETLE-CHASSIS AND ITS DONE IN A REAL GOOD WORKMANSHIP
THE ROMETSCH BANANA: A NICE EXAMPLE OF COACHBUILD BODY WHICH FITS THE VOLKSWAGEN CHASSIS
SWISS BUILD TUSCHER: ONE OF 3 WORLDWIDE EXISTING TUSCHERs. 2 OF ÈM ARE STILL CRUISING THE SWISS ROADS. ONE BELONGS TO A COLLECTOR IN THE U.S.A
PRE-KDF PROTOTYP CLONES: BUILD BY A POLISH COACHBUILDER A COUPLE OF YEARS AGO FOR THE VOLKSWAGENCONCERN
SPLIT CUSTOM PROJECT FIND: WHAT A FIND! ALL THAT HAPPEND LAST YEAR. AFTER A WEEK OF RAIN, MY FRIEND AND E11 MEMBER, RENE WAS CLOSE TO SUICIDE. EVERYTHING AT HIS BODYSHOP WAS AFLOAT. MORE THEN 40 USED CARS WERE DESTROYED BY WATER & MUD! THE WHOLE WORKSHOP, ALL TOOLS, TEST STAND FOR BRAKES AND INVENTORY WAS GONE ( TO HELL ). WITH HELP OF FRIENDS ALL WAS CLEANED UP AND RENEWED. BEHIND THE BODYSHOP RENE ALSO HAVE HAD GARAGES WHICH WERE USED AS STORAGE FOR SPAREPARTS. TO CUT A LONG STORY SHORT...........WE FOUND A VOLKSWAGEN BUG BEHIND ALL THE MESS. THE CAR REALLY WAS SNOOKERED AT THE FIRST VIEW. BUT SURPRISE SURPRISE...AFTER A GOOD CLEAN UP AND SEPERATING THE BODY FROM THE CHASSIS WE DISCOVERED A ALLREADY WELDED, MODIFIED CUSTOMCAR PROJECT. THE CHASSIS WAS PAINTED IN GLOSSY BLACK , FITTED WITH ALL NEW PARTS LIKE, NARROWED AXLEBEAM, DROPPED SPINDLES, HIGH TECH BILLET BRAKES, PROFLYER TRANS ETC.ETC ! THE BODY HAD SOME MODS LIKE, ROUNDED DOOR EDGES, NO MORE DOOR HINGES, SUICIDE DOORS WITH NO DOOR HANDLES, RAIN GUTTER REMOVED, NO MORE TRIM HOLES ETC.ETC ! WE ALSO FOUND A COMPLET CUSTOM TWEED INTERIOR, COMPLET ENGINE AND ALL THE SPARE PARTS U NEED FOR ASSEMPLING THE SPLITY.
MEANWHILE, E11 MEMBER AKKY BOUGHT THE CAR AND IS ON THE WAY TO FINISHING THE CUSTOMIZED - RESTORED - 90s STYLE - HIGH TECH SPLITWINDOW.
