and now it's finished ;)

it seems like car will saty rusty for some time and will enjoy benefits of rat-look.
just need to fix brakes and find some sunny day to roll on streets. so more pics and updates coming soon!!!

btw - if somebody can show a direction where to find few missing parts,
i would be very thankful. at this moment it's missing
- header bow
Image
at this stage i have found it on www.volkswarenhaus.de
but the price... khmmmmm 249 euro :? maybe somebody know the place there it is possible to get an old one.
i can make a copy here in latvia. we have good craftmans to do it here.
also i have extra rear wood for sale or swap.

- front turn signals

actually i'm missing only this red part. couse assembly is the same like that on T1 bus.
and i have some old lenses left. only thing missing is steel housing cone
