Juergen, your car is going to look beängstigend with that cream body and flat black hood. I studied your language in high school sometime in the last century but your English is far better than my Deutsch ever was.

Kepp posting with your progress.
 
finally the engine is back in the car, still waiting for some parts to be delivered but i think i´ll reach my goal and bring the dart back on track to the customizer east meeting in helmbrechts :)
