Bugat5speedUS project "Volki"

[Bug@5speed(US)]

Well finally got things undercontrol, and have started the tremendous job of rebuilding from the ground up my 73 SB.

Finally got the tent and work area set up, body off, and now working the pan. Only issue is that my Front Pan Head has some cancer and from the looks of it will have to be completely replaced. I don't think its worth salvaging any part of the pan head or Napolean thingy, so I will go with new stuff. So time to break out the lincoln and have fun.

Here are some pics of what has been going on.

Body off


My new home away from home


Some pics of the cancer: As you can see the ends where the two bolts go thru is completely eaten away, and some rust holes on the tunnel where the pan head meets the chassis.








Hole in the tunnel and a piece of patching material from the other end



Some pics of my dummy box to get things fitted properly at the business end of the chassis





As I get working and have time to upload pics I will be sure to post.
I will post specs.. but as you can see 5 speed, 2.7 lt type 4 with DTM, some GWD stuff, some 944 stuff.. and a lot of nothing on the inside..
