We will be able to bring this chassis ROLLING to the Barndoor Gathering in Amersfoort this May!<\/p>\n<p>The gearbox and the steering knuckles are in Hessisch-Oldendorf at Christian Grundmann and his great mechanic Marcel. Both of them promised that gearbox and steering knuckles will be finished in time. The front axle beam should be already in England on its way to Mark.<\/p>\n<p>The rear shocks are in Poland at Jacek Krajewski who told me he will finish this job next week (I will share with you an extra post about the rear shocks).<\/p>\n<p>The front shocks I will repair by my own end of next week (post will follow very soon).<\/p>\n<p>The wheels are in Sofia for a paint job, what shouldn\u00b4t be a problem at all. Hhhhmmm, I just realized that I need some tires. But to buy now a set of new brand tires wouldn\u00b4t be smart as there will be some years until the Samba is really completed and ready for its first ride. Letting some new tires ageing for nothing would be stupid.<\/p>\n<p>So is there anybody out there who can spare with us a set of used 16\u201d-tires just to bring the chassis rolling from England to Amersfoort? Come on, guys! Be part of a great story and write me if you could help by donate some old tires you couldn\u00b4t use for regular driving anyway!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Have a nice weekend!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Florian<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Hits: 0<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dear VW-friends, &nbsp; this post won\u00b4t be long, but it\u00b4s the most impressing one so far!
