breaks fixed, took the first drives today, awsome.
the only problem so far is that the speedo jumps like 20km/h up and down every second

going to schedule a time at the SBP "Svenska bil provningen"

the car testing place to allow cars to drive / not to ( no idea what you call it )

and hope for the best

your SBP is the same thing as our annual/bi-annual vehicle inspections found in some parts of Canada & the United States (from what i've read).

as for the jumpy speedo, i had the same issue in my '78 p/u. i just took the speedo out of the dash, cleaned the rear of it really well (where the cable enters).

it seemed to work on mine.
