The suspension got some paint and new bushings.

The engine has not ran for 15years so we gave it a god overhaul,new gasgets,plugs oil.

It was leaked between engine and the gearbox.

The fuelpump was no more so we put a eletric pump from a volvo insted.

Work perfectly:cool2:

[bloodwheel]

 

The generator was dead ,and very heavy, so we put in a generator from a unimog,brand new and free!

 

The engine ,very easy too work on:D

Too winch or not too winch is the question!

About 6 months in too the resturation the unthinkable happened,the was a fire!!:embarrassed:

We are about 50 enthusiast sharing the space here,and on the otherside of the firedoors is the ususal parkingspace withs was set on fire.

 

Altou the flames didnt enter our space, the smoke did!!!!!!

Everything was black and smelt like ****.

I didnt take any pitures ,it was too depressing to even look at live!

About a 150 cars was destroyed,burned up...

My space was the next too the firedoors so we where hit hardest..

I had to trow away allmost everything exept my tools and mutt parts ,but everthing ells was scrap..

Life sucks sometimes:cry:

The renovation of the garage took about 6mounth,fortunately we didnt have to do anything.

Just sit and wait!

After moving in and doing the last welding ,fixed the brakes, its was time for paint.

A good set of primer first.

You can see the firedoors behind the mutt!

At first we tought about painting i in swedish camo, seen on these tgb 20.

But for some reason we didnt do that ,wich i regret today,would have look really good i think.

Instead we went with army original..

After having fun in the sommer,for a few years we got a bit tired of it.

My brohter have some own projects,and i bought me a TP21 also called sugga,whits means for those who dont know female pig!Because it looks like one from behind.

So we desided to sell (just keepin da peace) mutt to someone that will appreciate it more

Sad but true.

The lasted i heard is that is doing ok ,and the new owner is doing some offroading with it...

Do we miss it,H...ya

[bloodwheel]
