Re: 356A Coupe restro

Well what a very good weekend result. Not expected given both the amazing Porsche's and VW's on display at this years Volksworld show. I drove down on the Friday in appalling weather and then back on Sunday night. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/53594746266_9bc7a31434_b.jpg Untitled Runner up be...

Re: House of Karmann

Back to progress. Body is now rust free and RHD. Chassis is ready to come back for additional work hopefully on Wednesday night. Hopefully the clips below work ok. https://live.staticflickr.com/31337/53567754519_fb04859047_b.jpg IMG_8910 (1) https://live.staticflickr.com/31337/53567434466_cdc57ec110...

Re: House of Karmann

Plenty of threads on here about IVA. Any modification from original to a car seems to make it liable for IVA and meeting a set of regulations and therefor not really optional. My speedster was built to IVA standards of which most are for safety and I do agree with most points. Even simple stuff like...

Re: House of Karmann

Thanks Keith Steering column details. The original column mated to 2 x CV joints which should meet IVA requirements for crash purposes. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/53515214888_9d3ccb995e_b.jpg Untitled https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/53515214903_e2d1c1f57a_b.jpg Untitled Four bolt mounti...

Re: 356A Coupe restro

Yes, lots of options around Norwich and Norfolk from Route 11 cafe to Ketteringham Hall orangery. Also out to the coast dare I say even Yarmouth. Something on the A11 would be easy for people to get to, assuming its more than 2 :)

Re: House of Karmann

The cross brace support between the original shock mounts wont fit. Pete fabricated simple steel bracket to add strength in mounting body to chassis. It will be a solid body/ chassis mount same as originally used by Volkswagen. It is IVA test compliant. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/5350784076...
