It is a long shot. I am sure someone snapped this right up. I am missing
one.

Mark,
What do you need the house for? Put a loft in the garage, bed, mini-kitchen and you’re good to go.

What if…Take a stock VW seat cusion base with the springs etc., mount it to the TD seat wood, and cut the seat box down so the cushion is at the correct height in relation to the seat back. Hmm…  something to ponder methinks.

Hope you get that, Mark. Also, I want to come over. I have a huge garage. Really huge, by my own standards. I guess I could put about 8-10 TDs in it.–It’s probably about half the size you’re describing. If you get what you want, we show it to Karen, and she thinks our garage is “normal!”

Poor Murf…time for a new compressor Larry  Or some aural protectors for the Murf dog!
Congrats on the new toy Ringo…you can’t beat new tools.
When I retire and relocate next Spring or Summer, I already have plans for my very first owned garage…no more renting!

Yeah,.. I have done some painting in the past with a smaller compressor and I knew I would need more “umph” to let me switch to HVLP.  I also knew that  the “pot” time with the 2 part paints wouldn’t let me play catch up like I used to do with the small compressor and single stage paints.   Plus, when I tried to use my DA sander I swear I hear…[Read more]

Welcome to the group!
I tried to find matching volt gauge, marked “Dynamo” that I had seen in the past.  No luck.  I haven’t seen the British type labled guages for sale new, so MG magic may be your best bet.  At one time Sacramento Vintage Ford had the sets.  Their new catalog doesn’t show them anymore but it might be worth a call at 1-88…[Read more]

Held Motorsports was the Fiero (P-Body) aftermarket suspension people. I think they are out of business and may have reopened under the above name.

Also, there used to be a Pontiac Fiero aftermarket front suspension available that used tubular “A” arms and coil over shocks. I forgot the name of the company.
The ’84-’87 Fiero and Chevette’s used the same front suspension parts. The ’88 Fiero (last one) used a different set up. http://www.fierostore.com/

Larry, the phone number crosses to a San Francisco, California area code. 

Craig,I have the same tach & expect to replace it this winter. You can see it in my gallery, third photo, I believe.Mine reads to 7,000 rpm and matches the Kph one we both have (83 mph?)The tach is working, though it seems to read high at idle–about 1300 rpm. I’m pretty sure I’m not idling that high. The bezel needs a spot of polish too. If…[Read more]

Welcome to you and your Duchess Craig. As far as the Classis Instruments Tachometer goes, a company in Florida, MG Magic carries the instruments. The tach runs $119. Not sure if it’s what you need because they don’t show any photos or pictures of the gauges. You could give them a call at 954-680-2010. Hopefully they’ll have what you need.
And if…[Read more]

Ringo! My dream too…..you’re close by…..I’ll be right over
I bet you can really push some CFM thru that baby.

 Hi Craigo, Welcome to the forum.Glad you have been able to find answers here.
The Duchess is a great TD replica. Looking forward to seeing pictures of your’s.
 I searched Classic Instruments on the net and found some close to Ringo’s but as old as these cars are ,it may be hard to find an exact match.You never know,some one just may have one t…[Read more]

Way to go, Ringo. Air tools rock. And painting is indeed possible with a good compressor. Have fun.

 Ringo, Great news!!! My compressor is a 30 year old  thats  knocking  so bad it scares the dog  when it starts up. Sounds like you must have been a good boy for Santa to have come early.

There was one pictured on the web that used the rear fenders from a TD on the trailer. I looked and can’t find it, but if I do I’ll post. It looked pretty good.

Can you post a picture of the broken one, so we have some idea what you are looking for?

I will be adding a pick as soon as I can get one I know it was avaible some where because I have one but the glass and clock are broken.

The car is still available…
