Why not import into the U.S. and sell complete cars as opposed to kits???

Not quite on theme but we have been selling the TD2000 in Europe for some years and I have been telling Edward Teo (MD of TDCars) that the USA should be a great market for him. Now that he has agreed with Toyota to supply a drive-train that is approved for use in the US will it be difficult for him to sell there in “kit form” and are there any a…[Read more]

Nice! Congrats!

I am interested in the carpet.  What would you have to have or it?

Your my idol

Um, no I can’t. Not directly. I have to work through Frank’s brother Jeff for major changes and posts to the site

  100 pounds is the best guess  at least she wont be mad Dan

I can relate completely.  Would have done it same way.

You clearly have your priorities in order.  

Grandpa,
I have one that I will part w/ – it is fiberglass and I spent lots of time making
it nice and smooth than had it painted – decided to go w/ a a spare instead.
AND – it’s red

Larry, Yes I know, SHE corrected me too.  Said something like I was way kind and she hasn’t seen 100 lbs since about 6th grade.   I guess I guessed light.

 Montie, Trust me ,a 100 lb wife is not something heavy. You should have said ”My wife who only weighs about 100 lbs,helped me with the project” Glad you made the seats better and thanks for the helpful hints.

I’d fab one up from one of those Jeep or other mini SUV tire covers–the hard shell ones are glass, I think, and might be findable in junk yards. 

I had my replacements made at a local plastic fab shop.  total cost was I think $30.00.  I redesigned them a little larger (see my photos), they work great and didn’t break the bank.  I already had the hindges on the car from the old ones so it was easy.
Had him make me a rear wind screen this year.  As soon as I get the pictures to come out I…[Read more]

I made mine from some Plexiglas from Lowes. You can cut it with a Jig-Saw. Then sand the edges, and they will look great, and it is cheap.  Cut them out with a fine tooth scroller blade, but not super fine as it will get hot and weld itself back together as you cut.  Learned that the hard way. It takes an afternoon, but saves a bundle.

I’ll be back in Phoenix by the middle or end of next week, I hope.  If it’s still available, I’ll be happy to look at it for someone.  I’ve dreamed about a red MG with a white top for a long time, but ended up with a cream colored MG Replica with a brown top.   Color wasn’t primary after all, but having an engine that I feel comfortable with was.

Maybe an old Z car rear setup would work. Suspect it’d be about the right width.

I’m just catching up with this thread.  I have a fuel filter in the engine compartment, and we added a second one (to be first in line) as the fuel line comes out of the fuel tank up front.  I will certainly look into this information when I get back to town.

mrlmd, can you take a picture and post it. Might save a lot of guessing on everyone’s part.

Glad to help.
If you need any more pictures let me know ,It going to be a while before i get back to finnishing ” the mistress 2 “
