That must have been gut-wrenching 😪  Is that a new clam?  Looks amazing if it was repaired.

No, its a 2nd hand clam, that they've repainted

Just booked myself onto this tour

And this coming Saturday going to visit the workshop in Baden Baden who are repairing my T49 to check on the progress

[Badger02]

Visit to the repair workshop run by Volker this morning. 2nd hand crash box awaiting some minor repairs and bonding to the chassis, new alloy radiator awaiting fitting, new windscreen still to be fitted. Should all be ready for end of Feb

A few other things discussed/agreed with Volker: he's going to quote me to have the rear clam and sills repainted, he will try to get hold of a 135 camshaft to install, LED driving lights from PNM parts, orange indicator lenses, and finally I've brought the tatty steering wheel centre back with me to send to Allon White to get retrimmed.

Repair progress is going well, hope to be back on the road early March

And with my retrimmed wheel centre

A few updates/photos on the repair progress, as well as repainting the front clam, I've also agreed a price to repaint both doors and the rear clam at the same time
