SIGHTSEEING HOLIDAYS
Hi, I´m back from a short holiday break on a nearby island I specially adore and I enjoyed a lot with these wonderful sights:
First a bicolour doka (dark green-beige)
Another hardworking one awaiting restoration time... (while housing some dogs on the cargo area)
This one defenitely has gone out...poor lady!
The best one I saw again, I really liked this one which belongs to a smiling dude who had inhereted it from his grandpa...
A night vision, a cabrio kubel on a night ride (owner having some beers in a nearby bar...). Sorry but the pic was taken with a mobile
This one was strange, the third one I saw with this combination. It´s like a mixture between a panelvan and a combi. It doesn´t seem to be done after factory manufacturing but a special order! I saw at last 3 the same.
And that was it. Some more out of reach because I had no camera or drove away to fast to shoot them.

1500 CLICKS WHILE AWAY ON HOLIDAYS!!
Many thanks for your support. My wife is encouraging me to pin up some muscle guys but I strongly desagree. What do you think...?

SUMMER HOLIDAYS, TIME TO REBUILD YOUR ENGINE...
After dismantling Gloria´s engine it was time to re-build it properly. I got hte new cylinder heads with their new valvles on and the club crew met to have a lot of fun... We desperately need a new look as we seem to get more and more greasy-like.
We took the crane case to a nearby petrol station to clean it with high pressure water and grease cleaner.
Here a close up with a nice view of El_Gofio´s selfmade engine stand:
It was nice to see the main body colour back again: beautiful grey!!
Back to the garage we started the funny re-building task
And then we were four as Kiko never misses a hard work session!
It looks much better now, all the seals are new, every screw, nutt and bolt, and the oil pipes as well. Maybe tomorrow everything will be ready for the re-start ceremony!
