We still have meteorological summer here in the southeast of Sweden, but today it was very windy and colors are really autumn. It was time for service after our 4000 kms holiday trip in Norway, on the old Oval Beetle, see earlier posts from that trip. Valve adjustment, all exhaust needed a slight adjustment, oil change in engine and gearbox, grease, set ignition, new sparkplugs, rotor, cap, condenser and points. All original Bosch parts. These parts was last changed 12000kms ago. I also mounted red Konis at rear, set at the hardest. Car felt really good after some minor carb adjustments. Hopefully we can have several more nice days for classic car trips this year.😉

Third recreation drive this week in the Typ 64. Nearly 4000 kilometers now in this car since finished. Very nice and mild autumn so far. Todays drive was also mainly on gravel roads, one stretch was newly sufaced and very loose on top, great fun.😎 Here are some pics from today and also a fantastic pic from the early 1940´s. Early KDF Beetles.....and look at the end of the right row...........😉 ------------------------------------------------ Tredje rekreationsresan den här veckan i Typ 64. Nästan 4000 kilometer nu i den här bilen sedan den blev klar. Mycket fin och mild höst än så länge. Dagens körning gick också främst på grusvägar, en sträcka var ny sladdad och väldigt lös på ytan, jättekul.😎 Här är några bilder från idag och även en fantastisk bild från tidigt 1940-tal. Tidiga KDF-Bubblor.....och se i slutet av den högra raden........😉
