It moves!

Post by kabu »

Hi All,

As many of you have noticed I have been working on my 4AD restoration project for quite a while, several years actually. The cas has basically been in running condition for quite a while but I just have not even tried to drive it. but last Sunday i finally took the Singer out of the garage and tried to drive it the first time. It is quite likely that it was the first time the car moved on it's own power since 1968 when it was removed from the Finnish vehicle register.

Thanks! There are still some minor things to do and adjustments to be made before I can register the car. But I have good time to do that since winter is coming and November in Helsinki is not exactly the best time and place for open top motoring (we are at the same latitude as Anchorage, Alaska). Therefore the registration and driving on public streets will still have to wait until spring.
