HSM?


 HSM - Hood Strap Mockup

😀

Time to get a visual of my planned hood straps...with temporary hood straps.
(Even the trunk gonna get them to)

Of course I have way too many ideas in this matter…as always…so built not bought is king here as well. 

Think the recipe includes brass (or stainless?) buckle, natural leather.....and magnets 😮

Rise to the occasion

The car secure up on the Speedshop Jenga.
In 6 months or so she will feel the ground again.

And if Summit racing finally will ship those new rims I've ordered back in may
it will be a whole new stance 2023 for the ol' lady.

These beauties' in 17"x7" (the smallest they have) I've been longing for 6 months now
....and at least 3 months more according to American Racing and Summit Racing

Big things

The big thing is that Speedshop Mk II is finally in the making for real. Over three years of complete chaos is coming to an end. And what is that start? Basically a huge 15 puzzle. Got another 32m2/350 sq ft for my disposal and that made the project start for real. To sort and organize a huge mess in the garage so it will be a more appealing use case. A logistical nightmare, but it will be worth it in the end.

Time flies

Over a year have past since last update… So much have happened over the last year both good and bad. But lets focus on tomorrow rather on yesterday…

Steering Wheel

My Steering wheel was beat up, cracked and had a bad paintjob. So I did a quick job, wrapped a cord around the steering wheel in a spiral pattern and after that wrapped black cloth tape over. Turned out great and comfy to hold when driving.
