	This is so cool! I have recently seen a 1951 Renault Estate, I fell in love with it. This is just as cool!

	Hi! The counter shows 2000km since the rebuild......! Did some things to the engine,oilchange valve clearence-check and fiddling with some jets at the carb. Ordered a new waterpump.It's leaking badly.... Build the missing part from the tow bar.... In germany this is not legal.....tow bars have to be TÜV-approved Did a testride with the caravan.... OK,it is not the fastest thing on the planet.....but the Peugeot pulls still well . Next week i will have a test-roadtrip..... Greet

	Hi! It was a nice 700km trip with the caravan.....! The place was very nice direct to the Neckar.... Back home.... The Peugeot pulls the Puck well,only on long hills it's missing some horsepower...the bulgarian/polish/romania truckdriver are not amused when they are behind you and the speed falls down to 40km per hour Greet

	Hopefully the MAG supercharger fairy visits while you've got the engine out so you can do that too
