Awesome car restoration

Post by Fuse »

Non-Volvo content, but some of you might be interested. It's this Finnish historic sports and racing car specialist Mäkelä Autotuning, they have very detailed pics of the restoration work of some very nice vehicles.. My favorites are Group-B rallycars they have on their site.. :P And that Ford Model-A is just astonishing also, fully original look outside but it's something else.. there's also a vid of it in their site.

www.mat.fi There are lots of pics of different projects in the projects section and pics of the finished projects in the cars for sale and gallery section..

That Lancia S4 had a price tag of 450 000 euros :shock: and now it says sold. I wonder who bought it...

At yesterday I was at this local car show Helsinki Motorshow 2007 and MAT had a stand in there, they had an ice racing vehicle for display.. I've never seen an ice racing vehicle built out from a brand new Bentley. :lol: Top speed 321km/h on ice.
