Hello, I have recently purchased a m1008 in Batavia, New York and had it shipped to the Netherlands.
Have been working on it for a couple of weeks to get it road legal and within a month or 2 it should have a Dutch registration.

Getting it from the harbor

Some other tires we had laying around
Need 2 New tires only found out the 16.5 inch is not available anymore overhere in 33inch.
It came on 16inch, I will put some New tires on them.

Already replaced a lot of steering parts and working on the rear brakes.
I found out that at the driver side the locking nut for the bearing is only on there for it's own with.
The locking ring can't be placed because there is no room for it.
Next week I'll make some pictures perhaps some of you know why its like this.

And our other project Cars

We need more Dutch and other Europeans here.

Which town or part of NL are you from?

Thank you all!
And I'm living only a few miles from Amsterdam.

And more local knowledge is always good so we can have a meeting or swap parts!
