Thanks man! It does smoke alittle bit and you can smell the oil burning.

I've owned my KE30 for some time now and I've noticed it burns a whole lot of oil, I've been filling it with some 10w-30 Maybe that is too thin? I'm thinking of doing a oilchange on it soon and I would like your opinion on what oil to use. Thanks :)

The motor is a lot more open now that I've angle grinded that muffler cap away. The whole pipe was filled with shavings of metal drilling, and the muffler is gutted! Found a long chrome tip and put it at the end of the pipe so the exhaust actually leaves the car instead of going up the rust holes in the trunk. Heater works like a charm! Heats up the car really fast! The paint that is on it horrendous, I can't wait to do something about it! The original color is brown and it has green doors. I'm thinking of keeping the car black. If you know any other original colors or other that suits the car, please let me know! I have no experience with spray-painting or welding but how hard can it be :) I have both access to garages, welding and spray-painting equipment! I've been cleaning the car, installed a radio and I've made 2 speaker boxes for 6x9 speakers to put on the rear windshield.

HAHAHA I just saw the best thing ever! The last owner found a new trick to pass emissions test!

Ok so I finally had time to pick it up! Had to fly down, took me about a day aswell since the plane I was going on had a bird strike so it was canceled. I drove from the middle of Norway to the very top, went trough sweden and finland to get home as fast as possible (They don't have huge mountains everywhere so they can actually build highways). Took me about 18 hours of driving, went 1310km. Engine felt strong and tight. Had no problems with it, it started easily and held up with traffic. Some notes on the car: The car is spraypainted black with a spraycan it seems, some marks where the paint have dripped down. They didn't even mask it properly, oversprayed some of the chrome and even some of the badges! :rant: Dashboard has a crack in it and some plastic trim inside is missing. A heatwrapped plastic cap is where oilcap is supposed to be! Some rust on the panels. Aftermarket tail lights mounted on rear windshield. The original "Euro" side mirrors have been replaced by fender mirrors, the last owner added the small and shitty side mirrors that are on. I think I'll keep the fender ones :) Other than all this the car is stock :P

Hi, I just joined this forum and this is my first post. I'm 20 and from the very top of Norway, my daily is a 2004 Audi A6 1.8T Quattro. Recently I bought a 79' Ke30 online, and I'm going to pick it up next week! The car is already insured and registered in my name. Unfortunately the car seems to have lived a rough life on the salty roads of Norway and therefore there's some rust on it. The previous owner have rustwelded parts of the channels. What's left (that I know of) is a wheel well and a hole in the trunk. The car have have rolled around 330000km (205000 miles) I'm so excited to pick it up! I'll keep you guys updated.
