Wow, if I hadn’t just bought my London Roadster, I would be very tempted.  Red is my first color of choice and the power of the V6 is something I would treasure.

Whatda’ mean, can’t have both?  I do.  My Honda S2000 is a blast to drive and the London Roadster I have is a kick, too.  But they are two different cars.  I keep the Odyssey in case I need to transport anything or have more than 2 people to move.Your V6 engine sounds great.  I bet it moves a bit faster than our VW engines.

Not gas. Ordered a new German MC plus all the hard lines. Also a Pertronix igniter while I was at it, cause what the hell?$200 more but this time she’ll have totally new brakes AND no more points. Soon as the stuff comes, provided the temp has dropped enough that being outside doesn’t cause me seizures. Dang it’s hot out there.

That is indeed trouble. 

Love the story dbrock!

Great idea Allen.
I created a PDF out of Wobby’s article into a PDf and will send it along to our host to add to the download manuals section

Mark,
Yeah, odd how those magnets don’t work, eh? Except….here’s a great story from one of our Speedster friends in the Speedster Owners Club (http://www.speedsterowners.com/).
Cory Drake has an amazing Speedster. Go over there and look at his photo albums.
Cory’s insipiration was to recreate a vintage speedster, that in it’s time would have…[Read more]

Mark…that odometer is a resale value protection device!

Mark,
Yes, one in Glendale and one in Mesa.

Lucky man. I think we all want to see more of this one.

My speedometer seems to work fine (only off one or two miles per hours per my GPS unit), but the odometer doesn’t work at all.  It didn’t move one tenth the whole way from Seattle to Phoenix.  

Do we have any forum members in Arizona or specifically, Phoenix?

Oh, that made me laugh out loud!Boy, if I carried that much spare gear and tools, I wouldn’t have had room for my luggage on my ‘bringin’ her home’ voyage.  Good advice, no doubt.

And I also created a Craig’slist for the tow bar yesterday and deleted it this afternoon.I’m not sure what the block of space is to the left of my first image.  It is 26 inches wide, flat, and then there is the mirror image on the left side.

No trouble at all, my buddies!  I welcome all of your input, as I had no idea what a coil over shock was, or even what kind of donor or base car I had purchased.I had an adventurous day, first at one UHaul dealer trying to get the lost-key lock drilled out so I could remove the sizing adapter from the small 1 1/4 inch to the 2 inch size, that I…[Read more]

Just a quick update.  As I mentioned in another post I have finally identified the car.  It is really not a kit at all.  In the early 80’s, members of Kosair Shrine in the Louisville and Southern Indiana area decided to build parade cars.  There were initially 20 members.  They used a basket case MGTD with a decent body to make molds and proc…[Read more]

Good one Ed!     

Either brake fluid or fuel. If its gooey then my vote is a leaking MC; probably where the pedal pushrod enters the MC. There’s a double wall where the MC mounts and it can take forever for a leak to show if its a slow leak. Yours sounds more like a blown seal. If it was the brake tube running from the MC to the rear then the fluid would be in the…[Read more]

Nicely done Wobby!this one is a keeper!

Richard you are da man! Thanks for the highly detailed description that an old Geezer like me can understand. Its invaluable infor for the rest of the members as well. Maybe Paul can add this to some technical area in our forum so we don’t lose it!
