BBT’s own schwimmwagen needed a transmission overhaul badly… so first step is to take transmission out.. as from what we could see this was the very first time this tranny went out! hmmm originality!…:)
First step…engine out, now we can see clearly the baby that has to come out… 
Koen, BBT’s trusty mechanic and his work of art!
messy content after removal… the tranny always leaked, already according previous owner, probably one of the reasons the body never have rusted? who will tell! 
anything You take off a schwimmwagen, it will always like more on a boat….:)
the fresh born over aged baby…:) Koen looks sceptic after 11 hours of hard work, in a schwimmwagen everything has to come out from above, cut a hole and take it from below would be a bad idea, as we will have problems ever schwimming again…
engine and transmission bay cleaned up, looks already way better….
from here we will bring the transmission to a very specialised shop with a large experience to rebuild ZF limited slip differentials from war time, we can’t wait to receive back and mount everything back together… to be continued.
