  • BEBOP started the topic Who Knows Mark Welch? in the forum Membership 6 years ago

    Bebop here.  I got an E-mail from a guy I met up with from the MGTD site about 6 years ago named Mark Welch.  He said he was going to be around again and we should meet up and have another beer or whatever.  I wrote him back to say OK but his g-mail came back to me “Undeliverable’ so please if anyone knows him let him know and send me mail to Je…[Read more]

  • Hey Paul, Bebop here.  Randy in Sun Lakes AZ.  My MGTD replica used to be listed on the site but I do not see it since the format change-over.  It was the only one made by Rich Industries out of Port Elizabeth South Africa.  It was made on a new Ford Cortina frame  straight 4 cylinder with drive-shaft rear drive.  For some reason that manufa…[Read more]

  • Eso es Claro.  Porque tu dice estas stupidas palabras,  no pregunta, un utensilio que tu no tienes, es un cerebro en la cabeza.   🙂

  • Thats a commercial AD that should be banned, but last year I bought a 2007 tacoma 4wd single cab at a municipal auction site, sight unseen,  out of Oro Valley AZ. 60k miles it was a good deal, look up public auctions .com  something like that.

    Man! I wish I had seats like that! I posted “Doinger Upholstery” a few months ago. Flat seats covered with leather from an elderly but real nice old leather couch. BEAUTIFUL SEATS!

    Welcome aboard! Mine is a Ford also. A 1986 English Ford Escort / Cortina. April 27 16 First of all if it’s hot like it is here in Phoenix Arizona you’ll have to adjust the choke on your carbeurator twice a year for summer and winter. And in order to grease the upper ball joints you have to take the wheel all the way off.   Randy / Mr. Bebop  🙂

  • OK, THANKS I WILL TRY ONE OF THE SEAT INSTALLED. THE VIHICLE IS AN ’86 ENGLISH FORD ESCORT/CORTINA. THE WHEELS ARE 4-LUG FROM AN AUDI OF ABOUT THAT TIME PERIOD WITH AUDI CHROME HUBCAPS WITH (DARN HARD TO FIND THE RIGHT SIZE) MG EMBLEMS GLUED INTO THE CENTER HOLES, THAT I GOT FROM FROM BRITISH AUTO SPECIALISTS IN FORT WORTH TEXAS.

  • BEBOP replied to the topic defroster in the forum VW Based Kits 8 years, 7 months ago

    Well, not many foggy bebop’n days out here but back in Fort Worth I used ‘Rain-X’ on the outside of the windshield and wiped and buffed ‘Never-Fog’ on the inside of the glass. I seldom went bebop’n on rainy days and if I needed more than that I just kept a cotton towel in the passenger door pocket for excessively foggy days.  YES, I had an MGB to…[Read more]

  • Thanks John. Once I bought one of those Pertronics four cylinder electronic ignition kits for it and never got it from back-firing no matter how I turned it 180  So I am on my last 2 sets of points that turned out to be from  Bosch Boat Motor of all things that’s in there. But heck I only changed the points once in twenty years. I’ll look for j…[Read more]
