Last week I was with my panda on tour through East Germany. First in Thuringia to a forum colleagues from the Super Panda Forum, engine conversion to another fuel injection system, Engine overhaul etc.
Then on Friday, after the engine was running at night, on to Berlin to Eike of the Italo-classic cars forum. On Saturday we are both to Luckenwalde in order to expand an engine from a Lancia Y10 GT. He should perhaps after the Restoration and approval of my 127 are incorporated in it. This conversion has been carried out at Eike get his 127 and entered.
The expansion was so far without problems, no rusted bolts and some parts that would have been in the way were already previously removed by the owner of the car.
We were full in timing, but this would be possible without the active support of Eike had never been possible!
Here he grad a couple of screws (I done that photo ...) was
In the absence of a lift there: 3 man lift up front, one pulls out the drive unit. But it was, the engine is out:
After the engine and the tool was loaded on the Panda, he has something "gesportbootet", ie it depended partly because of the lowering back down a bit. But it was, he fits in:
The most interesting part was the area where the cars were. A former barracks of the Russians. Not normally accessible via road, but now so wild that we cross with the Panda drive through the Botany and had a ditch. So it was very exciting with the lowering and weight behind it, but I am got through ;-)
However, the "hall" itself is such a thing was in itself, one side totally open, less protected from the weather. At least one broken pillar and roof were on my car after a short time, small concrete crumbs, although the hall itself was shaken to nothing. We were glad when the engine was out and we were off again, because I would describe the hall as a danger of collapse. Anyway, I'm what I wanted and it was great ne, interesting action.
And finally my thanks to Eike again for the support, accommodation and the small sightseeing tour of Berlin!
