旅の準備その1 レストアー The restoration of my Subaru 360
The paint was stripped off, and POR 15 was painted on some of the "rust sensitive" areas. Stripping the paint off a car - even of a small one, like my Subaru 360 - is not fun. I have done this 6 years ago, when I have restored my first Subaru 360, and at that time I said: never ever will I do this, but here I am, doing it all over again.
Two days from now, I will bring the car from the paint shop to my sensei's (mentor, teacher) garage and the fun begins. We will re-build the car to prepare for the 12,000km trip from Tokyo to Budapest trough the Trans-Siberian highway during the summer of 2008. I made a new wire harness since the old one was eaten here-and-there (by rats?).
元の ペイントを剥離し、錆びに弱い所POR15で塗りました。ペイントの薄利はとても嫌な仕事ですが車を長く 乗りたいなら、やらなければならない作業です。6年前に1台目のスバル360のレストア時に一回同じ事をやりました。その時”もう一回絶対にこんなことしな い”と決めたけど、またやっちゃったねー。今週の日曜日に塗装屋から友達(先生)のがレージに運んで車の組み立てを始めます。 来年の夏に東京からブダペストまでシベリア大陸を横断しての1万2千キロの旅を耐えられるように一から車の全体を組み直してます。ネズミが電気系のハーネスをあちこち食べられてから、全部やり直しまし た。

Hello, Are you planning to go alone? Would you take a passenger?
Yes, I am planning to do it alone. I will not take passenger, but if someone would like to join with his/her car that is fine.
