Done with the Almost Everything

So for the last 2 weeks me and Simon have been working hard on finishing the car for Paf carnival. 

This is how it looked when we got it back from the painters. 
 We started with painting the inside.
Here we see me painting the roof. 
The roof and the sides was painted with a white that contains a little blue in it so it will match the blue seats.
The yellow and black that still is visible will be covered by carpet and side panels. 
 Michael our contact person on Paf came and helped us with the car.

 We also got help from Paf with putting in the carpet.
Ulf putting in the carpet and me and Simon preparing the controller.
 Our seats and side panels arrived and we were very impressed by how sweet they looked. They are refurbished with used jeans from Paf employers and the driving seat is made from mine and Simon's old jeans.
Test sitting the refurbished seats.
 Because the doors and back hatch was still in painting we continued to work with the details.
Here we can see the carpet is in place and a few of the side panels installed.
 We mounted the motor and controller.
Simon is happy.
 Two days before deadline we got the doors and the back hatch back from the painters.
Here we can see the doors inside and behind the car. 
 While we prepared to put in the doors we tested the inside lighting.
Ledstripes that you can change color with your phone. 
After a little more work the car was in good enough condition to be shown to the public. We still need to do some wiring and install a few electrical components to be able get the car moving on its own. But that we will work on after the Paf carnival, because they are only going to use it as a stationary bar and is not in need of moving.  
The car is ready for transport.
 The inside become awesome with the jeans seats.
Under the seat you can see the battery box. 

Here we go.
 We stopped by Paf so the employers could see the car before we took it to town were the carnival was being held.
Many questions and a lot of touching.


While the car is at the carnival Simon and I are going to take some holiday.
See you later.
