Making progress, the new reused cabinets will help a lot vs your before picture! Organizing the garage is always a good thing to get done.

I am curious what your pellet stove looks like? Does anyone burn coal for home heat?

Regards,

Do you mean the container where I keep the pellets or boiler, burner?

Here in Sweden it is not used anymore coal in houses or apartment buildings, just in the industry..

Yes, this is a Taunus from -82 to 2 liter engine, will be renovated and replaced with 5 speed transmission, larger wheels, better road handling, etc., etc. :3gears: :3gears: :3gears: :D

2 liter engine is original and it's only been 14.000 mil, hard to figure out what it is in English miles, thought to keep it and just change the gearbox ..

What 5speed gearbox would mate up? or you could look out for a later ford Capri 2.0 litre complete with 5 speed box but doing so you loose original engine also when doing rear axle bushes put in solid rubber ones not the floating kind because with torque/backlash they will start knocking when you change up gear

Was not really good translated, but I'm trying to find a Ford Sierra -83 - 87, maybe take both engine and gearbox from it, but they are hard to find now in Sweden, most are trashed, reinforce bushings and new shock absorbers should be on, there is not much to buy in Sweden but shock absorber fits from both Volvo and Saab, thought to begin in the spring with the economy and to let ..I'm in a Ford Forums and where do I get very tip and ideas and there are some who have parts I can buy, i hope...

The boiler or burner,

Thanks for the pics of the houses and cars, very interesting.
Are those roof tiles along the edge of the driveway and are they made of cement or concrete?

Thanks,

That pellet boiler looks very sophisticated. The box of cat litter kattstro looks like the boxes wine is sold in around here. Thank you for the pictures.
