YES, we made it !!!!!

Post by Brinken »

Hi guys
It is with great joyfulness I can inform that we finally managed to convince the Swedish Board of Transport that my 1961 M38A1 really excist and that it came to Sweden 1987 together with 101 of its fellow brothers.

Thanks to Wes Knettle, Keith Buckley, Brian and Brett (in named order) we made this possible. I had about 3/4 inch thick bundle of papers coming together with my application to the authority. It took them two months to be convinced, and it took me two more rounds with additional information, but today the approval came in the letter box.

Now I can start the restoration with the goal to get it registered and approved to run in the streets.

I wish you all a fine and happy spring, and I can ashore you that I will return with new questions to the forum during my restoration
