Official opening



Our true vintagefriend Svein Olav have been busy the last two years building a dreamgarage. His other garage is not to be shamed of either, but the new one has got all opportunities to work on the cars, over and under. Svein Olav invited some of the hardest Vintage-nuts in Norway over for a cup of coffe and some tirekicking. The new garage is totally amazing - and very detaljed in every way. Enjoy it T2 man!

Locking mechanism for the split vert

I simply love the fact that lots of guys out there are willing to make parts that are very hard to find. When you make parts like this you can not expect to sell alot because there is probably just a handfull of potencial buyers on the globe.. Thank you Sascha!

Loading the canon for OCC

Forces within the Sechs Volt Garage are stepping up to defend the Norwegian colors in central Europe sometime next summer. A selection of Old Speed Canons are rumored to hit the roads in a fierce battle between German engineering, home brewed ingenuety and a bit madness. The Abarth Zwitter will be ready to fight in the small displacement class, and we gladly eat Okrasa and Judson engines for breakfast... Prepare yourselves in the south; we are loading the canon with balls of steel... and sliding into our outlaw shirts =)

WE DON'T PLAY - WE BATTLE

Driving in the rain

Sometimes you should wish you were at home and had your pride and joy parked inside. But yellow sechs volt bulbs and the wipers did a great job on the way home. Driving with original dim on the rubber is no problem. *Oval57*
