Janne making a fuss of things

...

Passed the MOT inspection, perfect!

The Rambler passed the MOT inspection today, whee! There's a small leak in the air intake somewhere, have to look into that. Then it's all about building the roof rack, making the livery, building the sump guard, etc. Also the shocks and springs REALLY need to be changed :D Rambler läpäisi katsastuksen, mahtavaa! Ilmanotossa on pieni vuoto, se täytyy vielä tilkitä ennen kuin lähdetään pidemmälle koeajolle autolla. Sitten aletaan keskittyä rallivarusteisiin:...

Short day's work

No pictures today, because of lazy camera man. We got the heater block leak fixed by changing new hoses and other tinkering. Now we have a spare heater block waiting for the old one to break completely We also continued working on the skirts: they're looking very good to us, but we'll see what the MOT person thinks about them. A cage for the roof has also been sourced and the livery has been designed. We might actually get this done before the departure in July. ////////////////// Päivän urakasta ei ole kuvia tarjolla, koska kameramiestä...

Yet another evening of building

Last night after work Janne, Miika, our friend Ripa and I gathered up and continued working on the car. We had three tasks: adjust the idle of the engine as the ignition timing was wrong, change the broken exhaust pipe and fix the hole in the skirt. We got all three done but found two new problems: the heater block inside the dash has a leak in it and needs changing and there's another hole in the skirt needing fixing too. Well, three problems...

We decided on our charities!

We have decided what Finnish charity we will collect money for. We want to do our best to help the well being of Finnish children by gathering money for a new children's hospital. You can donate from here. We are also raising money for Cool Earth in order to save rainforests. Please, take a second of your time to have a look at either, or preferably both of our charity pages. //////// Olemme päättäneet hyväntekeväisyyskohteemme Suomessa: haluamme...
