What´s the time?



It has been a while since my last post, but I have just been busy lately with some swapmeets, and alot of wrenching my own and friends cars.
That doesn´t mean that I haven´t had the time to think about accessories :-)
I have lately sold some of the parts that I knew never was going on the oval anyway,
and why is that? To get one of my dream accessories!
So yesterday me and my girlfriend drove across Denmark to pick up my very own Kienzle mirror clock!
It´s dated 8/53 so it should be one of the first (not sure when they exactly started making them) It´s in very good condition and is working very well, it was winded up yesterday and is still ticking :-)

So here is some pictures of it mounted in the oval where it belongs!

Feature in Super VW Magazine



Yesterday I recieved the latest issue of the french Super VW Magazine, with a feature of the oval inside.
Julien has really taken some great pictures of my car!
Now I only need someone that can translate it for me.

Afraid of the dark?



Are you afraid of the dark?
This might be the answer, 2 sets of the rare Hella bumberguard foglight combo.
Okay I admit it, I have to much sparetime this week end :-)
But I think it looks better than I expected it to do, but I better put one of the sets back on the self.

Even that he didn´t have accessories on offer, I still walked away with a nice parts, among others I got 3 heart tail lights, not In a great shape but agreat price and with some parts that I needed.

Swapmeet


This past week end I attacked yeat another danish swapmeet.
This was a very little swapmeet, and have only beenthere once before, but it was better that expected so I didn´t walk awaay empty handed.
I got a complete left side oval tail light, 1 Hella fog light for the Hella bumberguard/fog light combo, a Osram spare bulb box and 2 very cool accessory brochures. One from 1961 covering GHE products, and one from a danish dealer showing both Petri horn rings and mirror clocks, damn there some good reading in those, and some great prices too!
