1965 1500S Notch barnfind

Ok.

The car problem about the rims is solved.

Bought me a 1965 1500S Notchback today at the austrian province of Waldviertel.

It was driven in this barn back in 1988 and sat there till now.

Interior is in good shape because the seats where allways covered with red seatcovers.

The whole car is a perfect base to build something nice out of it.

No missing parts and some boxes full of parts (some of them NOS in original Boxes) comes

with the car. 

Austrian title and the keys too.

As fas as I saw there is not much to weld, but I never trust a Type3 before  

I havent seen every area after some disassembling.

Sorry about the bad Iphone-pics, but i was too much excited about this find

and forgot to take more pictures or check quality of them.

Because of my time intensive job at the moment,

it will take some weeks before the Noch arrives to our barn,

so please be patient if you want to see mor of it.

Good things takes longer somtimes

Bought me some rims today.. 

Original stuff.

Now, just a car for them is missing..

And tires..

The ´76 1. PO Manta or my confession to the aircooled scene

Some people say the biggest sin for a mid-european

aircooled VW guy is to drive an Opel.

But the absolute whorst case is to drive an Opel Manta.

Whatever...I dont care about that.

And here is the reason why:

One of the first Manta B Opel build back in 1976.

This is a unrestored survivor car.

This car is completly stock and covered just 86000 km´s.

Full stamped servicebook and a interior like new included.

Had much fun with it the last 2,5 years.

Its naturally not in showroom condition but rustfree

and untouched.Perfect enough for me to have fun with

it in the future too.

 

be there

More stuff

My ex `65 Pigalle and a few more boxes full of stuff arrived this week.

white ratpack

In the next time big  F. will bring two more Bugs to the barn.

And this guy is our security-manager

so, please dont come and visit the barn

whithout fixing an appointment before.

He is such a humorless bastard..

For the future the first projekt I want to reralize is

to build a small but usefull workbench for us.

Sorry for this amatuer sketch.

Was doing that in minutes at a very important

meeting at work.. ;) 

More of our Bench at one of the next posts.

Keep watching

 

fill it

Put some stuff in the barn.

Mr.F´s Whorstback arrived too.

In my opinion this Square just need its original 

headlights and indicators back,

a nice set of Fuchs rims and 

a full "slamitsession" .

This ride could be such a nice supershitlooker.

I love its home made rockers and 

belive it or not, this peace of crap

is´nt far to get a full austrian MOT!

75m² of freedom

This is just to get an idea what we are talking about.
