We are very carefully in replacements of original parts. Fortunately it is not our first rebuild and not our first US Car. We also made our expierience in that field in our youth long ago as we dont want listen to wise people

re-cored or rebuild of core or cooler is not more common in germany. It is hard to find one who do this anymore The complete paint coming up from militaerlacke.de US Army paint we used 383 Green Black and additional their other products as all matched to each other which simplifies...

Thanks for sharing your expierence it will be helpful to got one

Where did you buy your core? I am just checking for the best exchange solution. I have clean the core and got a lot of dirt out of it. I don't want wait until i have water in the cab. I had in the past in my Volvo 945 a leaky core. It takes a while until this can be noticed with all bad...

Complete the Blower and continue with the Core, decide than also if he shows no leaks to use a new one 37 years old it should be not a bad idea to exchange Will be here with our next order

@flyfishtrailer cant wait to have him back on the road. We are fixing just now with enginebuilder the rebuild of the old 6.2 engine with all recommedated improvements to prevent again an enginedamage of heat. Still not a cheap issue but not that expensive costs like for the P400. Now we can...

You grown up with two languages? thats a gift 🍻 English is much easier as German, specially the grammar Be sure only less german use correct grammar 😂

Had i knew yesterday that it take only less than an hour to adjust the box ...

Yes we have a lot of funny words, and i always try not to translate by the meaning of the word. Steinschlagschutz = Stone beat protection rofl impact = Wirkung, Auswirkung, Aufprall

Finally back on the chassis not adjusted and not mounted. I need more space in the shop If you have just 4 hands ... a really hard job without a liftplatform

The inner fenders were still provided with "Steinschlagschutz" from Mipa and the box is now ready to go back on the chassis. Our choice was the first time Mipa Mipa Underbodyprotection - Steinschlagschutz easy to applicate with air gun and low pressure (2,5 bar/36psi) but also avialable as...

😇 no its just primer and as the box cover the back from the cab are these surfaces just painted carc green 383 as you will not come between this area by mounted box. I know that some others also paint the box off the frame. We prefer on the frame as mounting will be not an easy job without...

Cargobox is ready to go back on the chassis Pics taken just after finish painting - color still wet

Keith_J you have some transmission companies in the US that use the 4L80e in all variations with appropriate equipment on the application focus. Here in Germany, that's a bit more cumbersome but also possible. It will only be expensive if there is no core or overhaulable transmission. If one...

Until i dont got a No Go from the engineer for roadapproval with history classification is our solution the 6.2 remanucactored with an 4L80e build after 1997 and the NP205 and 2 new driveshafts as the NP205 have a fix yoke we want use. The adapter should be a new one with a speedsensor for the...

I love my Volvo Estate - not more that big cargo volume like the old 9 series which pack a 1x2 m bed mattress but still big enough to sleep inside or pack a brushguard... Fuelcosts 140 Euro for the 820 km Trip and 2,14 Euro / 1 Liter Diesel and a whole day lost. I couldnt find as a privat a...

Thanks MAZ537 i know Morlock Motors since more than 25 years. I prevent any purchase of this company about my expierence with them. From myself is the advice be careful and check twice before purchase. ;)

That is not much. Here i have to expect 800 Euro only for the leather on bench and back without new foam. If you want special feature you pay more like different color of the sewing thread, special quilting... for example the Chevy logo on the back - which is not conform to the original...
