Default C8A HUW restoration in Greece

At February 12 we took delivery of a veteran C8A HUW truck, after a lot of months of negotiations and waiting. Thanks to our french friend Philippe, all went well, and our dreams came true!

The adventure to the magic world of HUP's had just began!

Some photos of the first days in Greece.

The truck is in reasonable condition, but there is a lot of work ahead for everybody. We have desided to go on a ground up restoration, to give a new life to her.
From this point I'd like to thank Hanno Spoelstra and Allen Tooes, a former HUW owner, for their help.
Today, we removed the nose and upload the engine. All went well according to schedule!
