We took a long weekend trip to Denmark, with a stopover at Lake Plön,
which lies between Lübeck and Kiel.
In Denmark, on the island of Römö, a storm awaited us.
Luckily, we were able to take refuge in a camping cabin,
but in the meantime it was nice and we were able to go to the beach,
which was not possible before.

That looks like a fun time out on the beach!

Today I installed a Volvo M40 4-speed gearbox in the Model A
to see if the conversion kit would fit,
it sits well in the frame and the torque tube can be kept.
Everything still needs to be fitted neatly so that it is perfect.
That's a good thing.

Soon Spring, then summer.

Oh yes, it may get warmer again, we are all waiting for it.

I've had the C10 back on the road for a week now,
the oil and filter have been changed,
the front axle and drive shaft have been lubricated,
it was still very frosty in the morning and
the Windows were frozen over, but the truck always started at the turn of the key,
the heating keeps it nice and warm.
What more could you want, life is good.
Greetings Harald

Morning Harald

Life is indeed Good.

I have started cleaning up my firewall as a first step in gaining confidence and getting back into this build.

Maybe I will post your comments next year for my truck.
