It was time for a longer test session with the Porsche Typ 64 after some changes. Picture taken at one of the local churches, bell tower in the background. Softer shocks in front, car is so light, around 600kgs so it has been too stiff, now it really feels nice with good balance. Newly built more open exhaust with equal length manifold from each cylinder inside an old VW muffler. Sounds better and feels the same. Newly designed fresh air intake system that can be adjusted 0-100%. Not much air comes in by the door windows and I did make a rudimentary system when car was finished. This feels so much better, more test to follow. Read the blog on our Typ 64 here: https://rekordwagen.blogspot.com/

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........😉
