Mine is thru State Farm, and I have reg Ohio title for kit car.  I had to get it appraised and it’s just insured for flat amout.   Insurance full coverage with towing & road service etc. for about 250.00 a year. 

That looks good. But I would maybe check to make sure it will fit under the TD hood. It looks like it might be a little thicker/taller than a stock tank. I wonder if the good folks at CIP1 will tell you the dimensions.

I’ve got Grundy. No complaints, but no claoims, and I went to them with a clear MD title in hand. They’re all classic, rod, kit, home-built though and so should be generally familiar with your situation.

I have American classic cars for insurance— they seem very good — check them out about the surety bond.

Hi Geoff,I live in Bruington Virginia,about 2hours south of Washington, DCI have a Daytona MIGI volkswagen kit, which is just abut finished restoration.Member name ( buddy)Welcome to the neighborhood.

 Thanks guys,   Ed, we’ll have to exchange numbers when I get out there. Probably won’t make the trip to Carlisle but I will definitely check out some closer shows. Thanks for the replies!

Yes I do. But it is just a blower that moves air across the windshield from four vents along the base.I run the “normal” VW forced hot air into the car through ducts under the seat. the passenger compartment is so small that it really does get too hot if you have the heat all the way on. The cable control to the heater boxes is hooked up.The air…[Read more]

Welcome Shane!Very sorry about your friend. It a great tribute that you will keep her legacy alive by restoring her MG!You’ll find lots of help here!Please click the registry link in my signature and add your info to the registry thread!

Paul,The Duchess does have 6 but I’m going to go with the 8 so I can have room if I want to add the Air Horn and Defroster. Do you have a defroster in your Duchess?

Welcome Roland!I told you there were good people here!

Yes, I think you’ll be fine with eight.Pretty sure the VW Duchess has only six.

V Dub based cars don’t even need to check the anti-freeze!

Roland, Great to have you onboard!  What kind of replica have you got?

Here is another one on ebay.  If I were closer I’d check into it, pic’s look great…ebay item # 180589807125
