Re: Dutch '59 Fleetside Longbed
Yes, those are bicycle lanes. This is in the “polder”, don’t no how you you call this, land that is being made out of water/lakes.
It is a 35 mph zone, we have lots of them in the country.
You are very right about the snow, the temperature can rise now....
Electrics are going Well. I use so many relays because we wanted to use the original switches. They are intended for 6Volts, now we use the switches to control the relays, at 12 Volts. All new wiring goes in as well, homemade. Did this before and works great!
Have to wire for a few days at my speed, but it comes along.
For the brakes, there is a difference in spindles from 1935 and 1936/37, so with upgrades brakes we have to use newer spindles as well.
Rear we must use new hubs and drums (brakeshoes were ordered wrong by that shop,so we can’t use the original drums anymore), for the front we are in doubt for drums or discs. I lean towards discs...but it not my car unfortunatly.
