Welcome aboard
Hi Kostas
Great to see another of the HUP family being restored. Looks like you have a very good starting point. How is the running gear and engine? Cheers Phil

My compliments!
@mr. Phil,
I have to admit that I feel myself "lucky" for two reasons. The first is that the time when I was looking to get a local C15 or a C15A from a very few and tired remained here, appeared out of a sudden that HUW for sale infront of me, and the second is that at the SAME time YOU have started the overhaul of your legendary HUP, so your progress -presented so wisely at your site- is a big course of lessons, not only for me, but for every MLUer.. Feel absolutely free to make any comment you like, I will read you with great respect... Nikos (L) and Fanis(R) removing the nose, the radiator, a help of a hydraulic jack , the crane. We decided not to remove the cub, before uploading the engine. Made a mistake? 1_DSC_0335_640.jpg1_DSC_0359_640.jpg1_DSC_0390_640.jpg1_DSC_0394_640.jpg

More pics!
Some more photos from yesterday's operation of uploading the engine.
We planned to pul out the engine in two stages with the help of a small but very strong crane. Finally, we got it! The 235 engine was out in the open air! Third foto : Nikos(L), Kostas(M, Haridimos) and Fanis(R). 1_DSC_0396_640.jpg1_DSC_0400_640.jpg1_DSC_0413_640.jpg1_DSC_0422_640.jpg

Keep up the good work
Hi Kostas
Glad to see you are making progress on your HUW. Been working away on my HUP steadily but sorry to say have not kept up progress postings on MLU or on my own web page. But your work and others this summer is prompting me to get caught up on posting the Overhaul process on my HUP. Cheers Phil

I took the doors and the wings off, and Im ready to lift and separate the cab from the chassis.
At the same time Im scratching a rear door from sheet metal and some bits from an old rusty one. door_18-11-2011_.jpg @mr Waterman: One other reason for posting the restoration work is to prompt and encourage each other to go on.. You are the leader for the rest of us, don't forget that! kostas

Remember the 4 bolts in the frame
Hi Kostas
Just as I was reminded, remember to get the 4 bolts through the frame of the body and the chassis at the front of the body. They are kind of hidden from view so easy to forget. Keep us posted on your progress. Cheers Phil
