yesterday was the end of a beautifull era. We had to bring Sylvester to storage.
Our Dutch government has decided to change the tax-laws on oldtimers. Untill now cars over 25 year were free from "owners-tax". long story short: as from 2014 we had to start paying €3,300.- a year just for owning this car...as you may understand, we couldnt keep it on the road
I took a lot of stuff out of Sylvester, which we will be putting into our new car "Monster" (see sig):
- AFR sensor and gauge
- vacuum gauge
- cruise control
- tach
- fan-controller (Flex-a-lite 31165)
- stereo
- speakers in the rear
- projector headlights (I will use the projectors to build new 7" round headlights for Monster)
We will keep it in storage for 1 or 2 years and then see how things works out.
Thanks Sylvester, we had a blast!
