John Simion started the topic FYI – TDR Sale Price in the forum VW Based Kits 8 years, 5 months ago
Just thought the forum might be interested to know that my TDR now has a deposit for sale at $13,000. I consigned it to Gateway Classic Cars in St. Louis and they sold it in a little over two months: http://www.gatewayclassiccars.com/saint-louis/1952/mg/td-S7203.html.
Even though the price seems fairly good, by the time I consider the cost of…[Read more]

This is what I used.
Quick and easy — fits right on the top of the carb.

I cut some pie cuts out of some 2″ schedule 10 stainless pipe so they’re 15 degrees total for each piece. This requires 6 pieces per 90* total angle. I laid it out today and I can get it to fit but the engine lid is just barely making contact with it where it comes off the carb so I’m going to be doing some 20 and 30 degree pie cuts to try to li…[Read more]

Dave. Good hearing from you again. Some of our seasoned club veterans may have done that very thing and can expound on it. I have heard of some guys in the VW forums threading a bolt into the starter bushing and pulling the bushing out that way. I’ve never tried it though. I’ll check my John Muir book and see if he mentions any tricks. There’s…[Read more]

Greetings all, I haven’t been on the site for a while, I have been busy with car shows here in Florida and Georgia. Quick question, I need to change out the starter on Herbies 1968 VW engine. It is probably the original starter for all know, as I built my Duchess kit back in 1985. My challenge is, how do I remove the “starter shaft bushing”, that…[Read more]

It is all for show nowadays so I suspect Ed could fab up some fibreglass six pack abs and biceps. That should intimidate the “real” MG crowd. In my case I will need some expansion seams so it will fit in the winter

Nice pictures he took for you. I really like your Lafer, it’s more streamlined than my BCW.
