Nice! it’s all looking so good.Thanks too for that link to the a-arms with ball joints. I don’t understand why he has three overlapping packages for either $160 or half that, but at least they’re available. Good find.

Got it. thanks. I had never heard them referred to as “Lucky” talilights

Way to go!  It’s a precious thing to have such a daughter.  I know mine has given me so many reasons to be proud.  We are lucky guys!

Dan…what is the “LUCKY” light base?

Me too

 A little late but,, Morris Minor, MGA ,Triumph and others used a lucus # L549 plastic light lens that will screw to the ‘LUCKY’ light base that seem to be used on most kits other than VW  they were an exact fit on my car  And you can find them made of Glass !  Dan

Great pictures of this fall run didn’t know there were that many speedsters, nice to see.

I have one that has a red mg logo, if you are interested. PM me for an email address.
