Way to go NPHS! Remonds me of my drum and bugle corps days back in the 60s. Pittsfield Caviliers Mass. State champs for 3 years running.

YAY, man! First try, even. Nice work, and glad we could help (by typing guesses thousands of miles away).

Beautiful pics of hard work, well done. I feel like I’m learning a lot just watching and reading. Thanks!

Nice.I drove Bridget to the grocery store to pick up some lettuce. There was one perfect tomato left from the garden and I wanted a final BLT of the season.Guy walks over to the car as I’m leaving. “I want that car,” he says. “How much would you sell it for?””Well,” I said, “since there’s no ‘for sale’ sign on it and you’re coming to me, how…[Read more]

Well, if you folks think I was bragging before….hold on to your hats.Even if pride is one of the seven deadly sins, I am VERY proud of the New Providence High School Marching band and their drum major, Ms. Lauren Mossberg, who are now the USSBA Group VI-A New Jersey State Champions.After…

No top in evidence, but there is a frame, and the front bumper looks like it’s had a rough encounter with something. Body and interior appear OK, though, and it seems to have all its windows. Lower price on the original posting, but maybe…[Read more]

I’ll second what Paul said, although along with the “knowledgeable” owners you’ll also encounter some (I’m raising my hand) who hardly know which end of a wrench to hold. We are friendly, though! So crank up your engine, get it in gear and join the fun!

When I ordered the CV joint kits for my Ghia each CV joint box came with the CV joint grease in the box. 4 CV joints; 4 tubes of CV joint grease. And like BDriver says…wear rubber gloves and expect to get really dirty. Its a dirty job but sopmebody’s gotta do it!  Be patient and it’ll go like……greased CV joints!  newkitman40853.6564236111

Success!
Thanks to all of you who held my hand while I took all those leaves out of my front end.  I’m done.  Took her for a ride and got the result that everyone predicted: Rides beautifully.  I must admit that taking a total of 8 small and 2 large leaves had me very worried that when I put her back together and took the stands out, the tires wo…[Read more]

Welcome aboard John!The London Roadster is a nice car!And this is a nice place! You’ll find a lot of friendly and knowledgeable td replica owners here!

Rocky, I am a bit embarassed by how incredibly “ready to eat off” clean your work looks.  I always thought that I was a bit anal about cleanliness, but after comparing to your stuff, – I’m not.  Just beautiful work on your stuff.  You really could (perhaps should) put together a “replicar book for compleat idiots”.  I tried to post pictures but…[Read more]

 
VW specified a really sticky black lube for the CV joints. Us the right stuff or you will shorten their life.
Wear latex gloves. It’s really hard to remove from anything it touches. 
 

Can you tighten up the nut on the heat lever stud a tad to make it hold?

Nice work Roy.  What?  No pics?
