Agree…like the new format but can we bring back “Active topics”?

Thanks for all the work
Rick replied to the topic Repainting in the forum General Discussion 13 years, 7 months ago

Ok. I feel pretty red faced on this one.

I went back and followed my own steps for prep and paint (as pointed out by several in this thread).

I sanded, washed, wiped down with mineral spirits, ran a tack clothe, then primed. Worked perfect!

I guess I got a little excited about finally working on the body.

Frank!!!!
Great to hear from you!
Do you realize that just about all the current active members don’t know you truly exist?
Hope all is well with you!

I am 69 and bought an unassembled Fiberfab/ Ford kit in July of 2008. I’ve enjoyed working on it, at my own pace, mostly in the summers. It’s nearly finished and hope to have it on the road before my 70th birthday in May.

Welcome Randy. Glad to have you on the forum. You have a great MGTD replica. Look in DavidP ‘s photo gallery for a car that closely resembles yours.Same wheels and hub caps ,which I have not seen anywhere else.He is in Africa and his car is right hand drive.I had not been able to figure out what manufacturer produced it but it just may be an…[Read more]

Great feedback everyone! I knew I could count on you.One step I absent mindedly missed was chemically cleaning the surface after the sanding. Makes me feel kinda silly since I did all this meticulously when painting my headlights.I was working on one item while my son was working on the car and I just jumped up and wiped it with a towel and t…[Read more]

MGLondonRoadste replied to the topic The New Build Begins in the forum General Discussion 13 years, 7 months ago

The block was put together over th weekend and the valves, pistions rist pins and heads were assembled. I was away for this process, so no pictures got taken, Just some peripherals, like the distributor, the oil pump, generator, etc. need to be hooked up and hopefully she’ll be running this weekend.

Welcome Randy,
I’m in Phoenix central, where are you located? I’d love to see your car and compare notes.

Paul Mossberg replied to the topic Hello from Arizona in the forum Car Registry 13 years, 7 months ago

Hi Randy,
I do believe this is our first TD from Rich Industries. As I commented in your picture post, I’ve been around this hobby for years (built my TD in 1982!) and don’t recall ever seeing a Rich Industries car.
Again, welcome to our little club!
Where in Arizona?

Gelcoat is a thick color coat that is sprayed into the mold before the fiberglass is laid or shot into the mold.
It is typically composed of expoxy or polyester resins, more similar to fiberglass resins than to today’s clear coat. Even thirty year old gelcoat will have residual oils in it, and gelcoat is relatively porous so it may even have…[Read more]
