Another fantastic spring day, 14 degress, no wind, sunny and not a cloud in the sky!
It was time for a Typ 64 drive in the beautiful weather.😘
We drove for 45 minutes and then down to the old local train station Eskilsryd.
The buildings are being restored by local train entusiasts.
Car runs really well and a new personal Top Speed record of 164km/h was recorded! (GPS).😎
Very stable at that speed, I am positivly surprised how it feels at high speed.
Total milage since car was finished is now 1734kms.
Spring Greetings from Sweden😉
