I thought it to be a type in the title of his ad but he repeats it in the description.  Either way, nice car.  I love the color scheme.  I think Zella needs a partner.  If I only had the space…

The “T” series started in 1936. But the CraigList ad above is simply incorrect.

Our replicas are modeled on the TD, which were produced from 1949 to 1953.

Here’s the model year breakdown:

• 1936 – 1939 MG TA Midget
• 1939 – 1939 MG TB Midget (same body as TA, stronger engine)
• 1945 – 1949 MG TC Midget (post war, pretty much dusted off the TB…

Yes, I think I’ll be needing one as well.

Not sure on the year either?  Didn’t they started producing the T-series in 36 as the TAs?

Hey guys, when I put the Pertronix in Bridget a few years back I had the same problem—until I turned the distributer about 30 degrees. Clockwise, as I recall. Someone on the board then said they had the same experience. TDC in the #1 cylinder stays the same, but TDC on the #1 plug wire, at the distributor cap, moves quite a bit.

We never could f…[Read more]

1937 MG?
I do like the idea of the coffee cup holder between the seats but it would not work in my TDR. Gluteus Maximus hangs over the seat so I would have to exit the vehicle to get a drink albeit it would never fall over

Amen to that!  😛

Got that right.  I can’t wait for nice weather.

I agree. Nice car.I like the two tone look and the luggage rack. Good price to boot. He shouldn’t have much trouble selling it. May still be a little early in the season yet, but in a few more weeks it’ll be convertible season.

I’ve been going through very similar agony myself in the last few days. My local VW mechanic has been suggesting for the last few months I should change from the old style points to electronic ignition. I purchased a total ignition overhaul kit; coil, distributor cap, rotor, wires, plugs AND  Compu-tronix (formerly Pertronix)electronic ignition…[Read more]

Thank you!  If you find all that time, I’ll take some!  🙂

Most of the major VW retailers carry the values in question. CIP carries four different models

Great pic of your son…His shirt is too clean…needs a little grease on it! He should be changing the oil and adjusting the valves by the time he’s two years old…Enjoy the journey, My Brother. My oldest son made me a Grandfather, last fall…My wife’s ecstatic…I’m too young! I’m still trying to figure out where I put all of that time that…[Read more]

Thank you both!  The weather was not cooperative this week or else I would have taken Zella for a spin.

I was, on the other hand, able to get a bunch of other work finished in the garage all while having my 8-month old job boss looking on.
