I took advantage of the opportunity to pre-adjust the brakes using the famous stepped board. Opinions are mixed on this, but I found it useful. Then I asked my friends if they had a moment, and we put the body on the frame. It's nice to see things come together again. Greetings Harald
Just went through this entire thread. Awesome work. Keep it up. As others have said, always cool to see HAMBers across the pond bring back to life these old hunks of metal. That event in Denmark looks really cool!
Looking GREAT! I used the stepped board on my '34. It works well. I don't know what the mixed opinions are, but I can't think of a better way.
When I was researching brake adjustment, I read a variety of opinions, but I'd already done something similar on my Mustang by placing a piece of wood between the seat and the brake pedal and slightly preloading the brakes to see if the drums were pulling evenly. Regards, Harald
The event on the island of Rømø is truly a major event. Hot rodders come from all over Europe, with an estimated 45,000 visitors over the weekend, although the race only takes place on Saturday. It's very well organized. One half of the beach is full of campers and caravans. It's amazing. It's good that the Danes are so relaxed about it; that would be unthinkable here in Germany. I'm happy that something like this exists nearby. Here are some pictures: The aerial photograph shows the race track on the left, the open field, and the campers on the right of the access road.
