My embroidered MGs are above the pocket, as is the London Roadster lettering.  I don’t know if she can offer on-the-pocket work, what with a backing required for embroidery.  I like the image up higher than it would be on a pocket.

Very nice car ,I like the engine bay lots of chrome.

As i’m reading this me being the topic started i realise the td replica will be around forever.

I bought Bridget with the idea of converting her like that car. Did a little research & found a number of Beetle conversions with lead acid batteries, guys claiming top speeds around 60 and ranges in the 40-50 mile neighborhood. I figured the lighter ‘glass body would only help, and Bridget’s price was a bit less than I’d expect to pay for a…[Read more]

I concur with Royal’s plan– denim shirt with small embroidered TD on the pocket, color up to owner, first name under it, and across the back, “TDReplica: unmatched fun-per-dollar” Ready to order soon as we get final consensus.

Hey Bill, I just talked to a guy with a rebuilt Pinto engine, 400 + hsp, turbo, 9000 red line.  He claims it will do low 9’s 1/4 mile and about top speed 180.  Wonder what kinda milage he gets.   I’m lookin to make mine a little quicker, I think this would be over kill. 

If that’s GOOD coffee, I don’t care what he’s wearing.  Just pour me a cup, too.

Congrats Greg,

I have two daughters and two grandchildren they are a lot of fun.  My wife does daycare every Wednesday and loves it.  Hope she’ll take care of me someday :)Until then I’ll be keepin busy.

The charge time does not seem bad…IF it had a 200 mile or more range. Otherwise, the range is to small to get out of town, let alone return in one day. I wonder if the body could be fitted with a Toyota Prius for range and reliability.I d prefer a 400to 500 mile range to be able to either commute for a week or take a road trip.

Omg. I know I,be been out of service for a while. And I apologize but where did the fashion police come from. Add me in on club shirts. Edge mix me a cocktail. Paul up and ed on the playground could be fun.

I have one grandson who’s 14 and loves riding in the Lafer. As he lives in Dallas, that doesn’t happen as often as either of us would like. Now looking forward to another grandchild, due in August. This one will be living just three miles away, though . . .
