I have started gathering the things nessecary for the build and am looking forvard to delivery of frame and parts from Triking somewhere July - September.
The swedish regulations regarding the making of vehicles are a bit stiff but far better than Denmark and Norway where it's almost impossible. I'm not allowed to buy and assembly a complete kitcar but has to make as many parts as possible by my own or buy from different suppliers, making it more of "my own creation" This of course makes it harder but as a teacher of Sloyd i can do quite a lot of it and count it as "work related practice". (and i do need to get better at shaping sheet metal)
First off was to get somewhere to do the actual work, the garage was filled with a Saab 96 and >10 years of old saab parts but after a quite fast sell and 4-5 days of cleaning, moving stuff around and painting walls its actually useful as a small workshop. It's not large but one of many reason that i choosed a Triking was it's nimble size.

Beeing careful with my back i changed my plan to just lift the engine into the car and instead put it on i silly litte trolley and pulled it the last hundred meters. Once inside i could start cleaning it up and check all the parts. It was not cheap but counting what a used Guzzi here in sweden had cost (or one from abroad + shipping + paperwork) it was resonable.
And i didnt have the mess of storing and selling various parts to all the weirdos on internet (you excluded of course)
