Hello from Sweden

[Skyracer]

My name is Håkan Eriksson and live in Stockholm, Sweden. Also called Skyracer since many years back.

Own a VW Polo (wintercar), a Skyline R33 and a Toyota AE86 Sprinter Trueno from -86.

I have had the Skyline for 7 years and the AE86 since this summer.

I will redo the AE86 from scratch and up. Will do a thread to show the build of the car.

This summer it looked like this:









More pics and info here (sorry, in swedish):

Other than that, I work at Mekonomen (car parts dealer) and also as a DJ. I drive some laps at the track every year with my cars.

I own both http://www.skyline.se and http://www.ae86.se

Regards
Håkan

Thanx. The AE86 is the "Fast" and the Skyline is the "Furious"

Well, "brand new" is impossible because then I have to buy all new parts.
But, it will be stripped down to frame, repaint and rebuilt with:
- good parts (some carpets, hinges...)
- new parts (plastic details, clips, rear/front lamps...)
- better parts (brakes, tyres, sport seats...)
- lighter parts (plastic windows, carbon hood, carbon rear hatch...)
- performance parts (new engine, coil overs...)
and so on.

So in a way, like new but better!

I have started thread in Project.

Håkan
