Hi from Hamburg, Germany

[schmalle]

Hi folks,
I live in Hamburg, Germany, and own a red 69 Satellite convertible. I bought this car years ago, still working and driving it and have a lot of fun with it. It came with a 318, auto trans, AC, power steering and power brakes. The AC was already deleted when I bought it.
Things I did:
- new wiring
- front bushings all new
- swaping to manual steering
- rebuild transmission after blowup

In progress:
- big block swap with repainting the engine bay
- manual brake swap
- add a Eaton true trac to the 8 3/4 323

So the car never will get boring ;)


Two years ago I bought another 'beauty' and made it road worthy. It'll get the 318 out of the satellite this year.



best regards

Marc

Hi guys,

thanks for your welcome. I'm looking forward to get the Satellite back on the streets in about 2 weeks.
Yes, the grey beauty is a '62 Valiant, working on the cars happens outdoors ;)

@snakeoil24, a Zündapp with side car is rare, even here in Germany, as much as I know.
