Thanxs - I can only take credit for installing the 2.4 enine and a bit of spit and polish. I would never part with the oval. I have owned it 25 years which now half my tired old life.


5PL1TDCS10N - November 22nd, 2004 at 10:43 PM

That in itself is no easy feat! What do you do?
Your oval is a great little car especially with the Jud. I used to own the pearl red 56...

Hope it goes to a good home...proceeds to another project?

I'm automotive engineer. Proceeds of Type 34 will go into Porsche 550 replica


5PL1TDCS10N - November 22nd, 2004 at 11:23 PM

You might have to see someone about your poor taste in cars! heehee...


Judsons4eva - November 22nd, 2004 at 11:33 PM

It's an afflication I'm just learning to live with. Of course there is also my 61 Type 14 coupe. That has to go as well to get the 550.


5PL1TDCS10N - November 22nd, 2004 at 11:45 PM

Pardon my ignorance but whats a T14 coupe look like?

Judsons4eva - November 22nd, 2004 at 11:54 PM

Sorry a regular KG coupe


5PL1TDCS10N - November 23rd, 2004 at 11:16 AM

Nice! You have some nice cars there....
Is the KG for sale too then? Is it a Jerry special?


Judsons4eva - November 23rd, 2004 at 04:50 PM

I will be selling the Type 1 KG when I get time to get all the pieces in one place to show a buyer. I could be a Jerry special. Is the sort of thing that Jerry starts with to arrive at collectors car. This is basis of a restoration project. I've stripped it to bare metal to reveal what rust repair is needed. Damage in all the usual places. Floor pan very good and has all parts except centre of front bumper. It will appear on this forum in due course.


5PL1TDCS10N - November 23rd, 2004 at 09:40 PM

Jerry does an amazing job resurecting them! The quality is second to none...
I look forward to seeing the KG when its offered up for sale-W


Judsons4eva - December 1st, 2004 at 12:04 AM

Happy to say T34 is going to a good home with a Victorian forum member. Good to see it has gone to an enthusiast. On to my next project.
