Moss has the wiper parts for sale. I’d skip the original-style repro motor at like $325 though. Hot rod and/or boat supply places can get you something very close for $30-$70.

Ed. On my VWbased car ,the cable connects directly to the VDO speedometer without an adapter. When the speedometer ”broke” on the car I recently sold [also VW –VDO] I was able to fit the ”works from a VW speedometer into the VDO case. The same cable that fit the VDO also fit the VW speedometer.
Icould not find it, but I remember a post no…[Read more] -

dbrock, Looks like your car is a candidate to use the MG type wiper mounted to the top of the windshield frame. See Deerebills gallery to check out how he did this. A streetrod parts supplier can supply the parts. Without the dimples on the cowl , I don’t know how it would be possible to use the VW wiper system.

Mullica Hill, NJ is just southeast of Camden, NJ/Philadelphia, PA on US 322 between Bridgeport and Glassboro (Rowan University).
It’s about 95 miles southwest of where I live. If Fort Monmouth wasn’t closing in 11 months and I wasn’t retiring and relocating, I’d go look at it.
As it stands now, I have a ’69 Beetle, two ’74 Beetles, an ’89 GMC Sub…[Read more] -

There are several good wiring harness companies out there to choose from…Ron Francis Wiring, American Auto Wire, Painless Wiring, Centech. I’ve used them all.
A universal “Hot Rod” harness is the best to use IMHO.
A “tarantula orgy”…nice description! -

It’d fit in the garage. Not the budget. On that note, I just scored a pair of gen-u-ine SRT 576 Lucas fogs for $42 including shipping. “Patina” on them (o.k., “pitting,” if you prefer) just about matches what’s on the rest of Bridget, so when I put them on her it should look like they’ve been there forever.In my fevered mind, this will be a big…[Read more]

I feel really blessed to have found this car. It has a real MG like hood, fold down windshield, an auto trans, velour car like adjustable seats, a real MG 3 bow top. It also has a wiring job that looks like a tarantula orgy. (may have to redo that, but everything works…………)

It’ s probably a 2.0L OHC Ford. That engine was in the second and third year Pinto’s. The first production Pinto was a pushrod 1.6L and then the European (German) 2.0L Ford.
These engines were extensivey used (Formula Ford) and many other classes of road racing. I remember in the late 70’s they were in asphalt mini-modifieds that ran almost…[Read more] -

“Made in England?” Obviously it’s some kind of experimental-head XPAG! Go with it, man, you’ve obviously unearthed a rare “special” MG.Or, then again, I wonder if maybe you have the German EAO engine (which could indeed be dated 1970) with the Kent (“Made in England”) air cleaner?
