Hello everybody,
in the meantime I managed to repair the electrical system. Everything works, including backup light, direction signal and cornering light. Very happy! I changed the bushings of the push rod and installed a hazard warning light. Thanks to your help I ordered the Speedo gear in USA.
Now I have to check the brakes. I think they are a little bit weak. I opened one rear brake and everything looks fine. Dry, and parts look not too old. May the brake cylinder. I will see.

Nice Sunday!
Regards Alen
 
Stupid question: Back seat lesabre station wagon 1963

Hi all,

maybe a stupid question but I don't want to apply force!

I put my back seat (separable, two parts) down but I cannot put it back in an upright position. Is there a hidden arm or an mechanism that I don't see? Both parts seem to be blocked. I don't want to break something.

Thanks
Alen
 
Hi all,
I just managed to pass the german technical check (new lights, Brakes, tires, Hazard flasher, and so on). It was a little bit hard but now I have the necessary papers to drive it in Germany. Tomorrow I'll try to get the permission and german numberplates from the licensing office. Afterwards I can hopefully finally use the car. I bought it already in January.

Regards
Alen
 
Hi,
by now the car is registered and I received my number plates. I drove it for three days and it was fantastic. Nice sound, enough power...
I love this car:cool:
