Inside - Front seats

I had to weld and paint the fender before installing the seats


The seats are from an old Celica. They was disassembled, stain removed, chassis painted and cover washed. Then covered again with a new cover.



The result.

Gear box - Cleaning and inspection

There is the gear box outside the kombi.


It was necessary to use a spatula to remove dirt.


Now it looks better.

Engine - Crankshaft and pistons out

The bottom side of the engine. 


The oil pump out.


There is a lot of soot added to the crankshaft. Typical of an overheated engine.


Connecting rod bearing caps numbered before to be removed.


To loose the crankshaft bolt I used the same sequence used for the camshaft bolts.


Now the pistons can be removed too.
