George, You must know that I am not alowed to use picts of Et's Heb for education purpose.
He whould probably says that I need to pay him royalty's....:beer:

Besides, this part is from an early Hebmuller....Et's owns one of the younger Hebs...
Like you compaire a Karmann split convert and a karmann 1979, 1303 convert...
First year of production and last year of production...:lol:
Greets.

I just can not make my mind up on what to do....I want a type 14a, but due to the overwhelming numbers on offering hebmullers I can not chose.:roll: wich one I will buy.

To Peter: Start of production or end of construction, what does that matter?
Atleast I can say I have a Hebmuller!!!
Its stil better to have one of the end of production
than to have none of the beginning of prodution!!!!

To George: In case you were wondering what was in my other(right)pocket?

Ask Peter he is going to get it!!!:lol: :lol: :lol:

Well Peter... later, when your own 'personal Heb' is ready, we will look back to this topic for the date of 20th of November, the day you have started building your 14a from scratch ;-)

Succes with this project, if there's one person who can do it, it must be you 😎

Regards,
Paul

I agree ET, You have indeed a Hebmuller, a real one, Bought cheap :lol: and restored precious ( even twice :wink: ) . A very fine and correct car. And I love it.

If I succeed, I will have a simular looking car, made with my own hands in my barn.
The difference is that the joy to make plans, parts, trying to create it and hopefull finish it, is more satisfying I guess and hope.

And Iff I can finish it, I will never ever tell someone that it is a real Hebmuller or an original type 14a.[-x It will be just a replica of the original replica. ( as a heb is in fact a recplica from the radclyff roadster..:lol:

Now before I start, I need to find out what was ET Hiding in his pocket..?:shock:

George, The first one that show up for sale you have a mail...Iff I know it is for sale. Not like the last 3 that are sold and only knew when they were delivered.

You can send Et's gift to type14a(at)live.be :?

Well then Peter, if you're going to all this trouble, why don't you make a replica of the radclyff roadster? That would be cool and as far as I'm aware has never been done before.

Hebster 52 on here has been building one for a long time. Will be good if he gets it done.

I know Kristian is making the Hebster...I like it.
I also know that in the States a guy is trying to make a radclyffe roadster copy. Not sure how far he is.
I also know some pretty good looking replica's that are made all over the world.

My mind is set....I'll go for it.

So , the pict I posted here above of part 14-802.777 is not from an original part but made by me. It was something that I did to try out:? .
Now I'll try to post some picts of the progress here if anyone is interested to see them. Just let me know.:wink:

The first part that I try to copy is the air intake...It is a part that is not that simple to make. Here is the start of what I am up to...
Please do not point the mistakes:oops: .. I know how to weld but sometimes the result is not like you want it to be. Trial and error I guess.

I start with some air intake from a 1303 engine cover, but only the outside part of the 4 intake groups. These are already unde a certain angle on the outside. Cut them, use the center part to get them at the right length and then weld them in the center using a wooden buck on wich wooden spacer are nailed to help the lining and prevent wrapping...Once the welds are done, the grinding took place causing also wrapping...

The result is : burnt fingers, burnt Buck, lots of wrap, lots of grinding and a silly and useless result...:x
