Okay, mate, thanks for that. It's a '56 so we're safe......or it will be. Right now it's a rusty chassis, rusty bulkhead, and a pile of bodywork! No engine, no gearbox, no steering, no brakes, etc.etc.etc.......but if we don't need an EU, it's roadworthy:-)

Austbø109: It's going to be a first car/offroader for my daughter, she's 14 now. She'll be helping me rebuild it. To keep it cheap, since she's supposed to be paying for it (!) we'll probably put a series111 engine and box into it, also s111brakes, clutch and steering. But thanks for the offer.....

Helge, once it's built, it'll be worth showing to them!

Some cars DO NOT suit a modern upgrade.

If you try you will end up with only arms.

(I will take care of your fingers...)

 

But a -56 wreck is okay to modify in my book,that is.

You better let Sara start a topic here so we can help her when she gets into trouble.

Give my best wishes to the young mechanic.

Hi Gaute! (and everyone else :) )All we have at the moment is a rusty but usable chassis, very rusty but usable bulkhead, and bodywork. All of which needs work....plan is to put an S3 engine, S2 gearbox and transfer case, S3 steering and pedal box into it. Probably put S3 brakes on it as well, so I can fit dual-circuit brakes and make it a bit safer......It'll still look like a Series 1, but it'll be easier to drive and maintain. Chassis needs new rear cross-member, bulkhead outriggers, and fuel tank outrigger. All easy. S1 seats and interior. Galvanise the chassis and bulkhead once the welding is done. We'll keep it simple, and true to the spirit, at least, of an old S1, but with more modern brakes and engine. No, I'm not putting in a V8 :D Anyone have problems with any of this? ;)

I've signed Sara up for a forum account, we'll start a new thread in 'projects' soon.....

Edited to add.....it's a 1954 model, same as me :P
