Hey guys. My name is Mitch, and this is Olliver.I recently purchsed him off craigslist. At 427miles on thr odometer, it was obvious the car had sat for a long long time. After cleaning the gas tank, and correctiing several ignition issues, I’m having lots of fun driving him around the city.

Anyway, Mitch, those are interesting tail lights on your car. Any idea what they are from?Also, you rocking a V-dub or is that a front-engine steed?December 4, 2013 at 9:21 pm #258926Royal wrote:Attendance and interest in these cars is growing faster than Obamacare signups.Early FF TDr on 69 VW pan
Slowly coming back from the ashes...December 5, 2013 at 8:08 am #258927Good looking TD
. It looks like a London Roadster or her sister make -I forget which one that is . Does she have a VW chassis or custom?
Very well made replicas…December 5, 2013 at 8:18 am #258928Hey Mitch, what size tires are on your TDr? They look like you would grip like tires with Gorilla Glue on them. I couldn’t run tires that big without rubbing on hard turns.
John, as for “sister make”, I think you are talking about the Daytona MiGi which came from the same womb, but was first born.December 5, 2013 at 11:08 am #258929I’m guessing…
VW. Exhaust and thelift-up engine cover give that away.And are those VW tailights that are painted body color, with round lens glued in? Pretty neat idea!Paul Mossberg
