Germanlook Split?

[tommi_nylund]

luckily I´m able to roll a split-window in my garage at saturday this week!

I just wanted to know if anyone has ever do g-look split. Many g-look ovals I´ve seen....so why not split!

I have some wild plans in my mind about for example suspension, but we will see that what I´m really going to do with it. I´m afraid I´ll paint it matt, which isn´t very german look, but I´ll concentrate more into mechanical than making perfect paint-job, at least for now that´s my plan to make it handle so good as I´m able to make it.

What I´m planning would be that over 50-years old car would go and handle so that I could take it to circuit and have fun!

I'm the "guy" that bought Alex's '52 Split.

Why not a split indeed. :agree: But you must keep us posted on progress along the way.

if you do a split, make sure its one that is not in original shape to begin
with. Find one more suited for customization.

Ofcourse I´ll let you know what I´m doing in my garage, dont´worry that.

-> vujade: yes, mainly that is the reason why I want to have this specific car because it needs some body metal to be changed before I´m satisfied with it and it leaves me free hands to do my modifications without destroying 101% perfect split-project for original 100-points restauration. If you understand what I meen? Though I´m not going to customize the body what you can see from outside in any way, but inside it´s different story.

You know what'd piss off a purist more than Hoodrides Patina Machina would be a GL'd Heb, or a Heb slammed to the ground.....

Yeah, who wants to build a GL Heb.....
