So this is the big one on my bucket list.
I have not the money to buy a original one, so I’m building one.
This is not just a summer project, it’s going take years to do, so it will be slowly raising in the background with videos a so on.
More exiting is I had Niels from a little magazine called @airmighy on board on this 😅 And the build will be featured in that step by step. So be sure to keep and eye on that.

Yeah, this oval was pretty toast anyway and perfect for this. Although a lot of remaking sheetmetal  |

Wow, very inspiring, thank you for posting these. Way out of my league but still motivates me on my '66 "kabriolet" to make it resemble your stance. Looking forward to this build.

Great work! I watched the last 2 episodes at once. Glad you have a new camera and video quality is spot on now!

Great videos.
I'm not a builder but I am able to follow your process because of the clear explanations and great visuals. And the music helps.
Looking forward to seeing more.

Remarkable progress, I've been waiting for #4! I didn't even realize that you posted it, instead it popped up in youtube because it's one of my subscriptions
Can't wait to see it roll.
