Agree with Ed. When I had my top made about 20 years ago the canvas shop wanted about $150 more than the stock top from MG Magic. As a plus they inserted a nylon piece at front of top where it goes into the slot in windshield frame. I have never had an issue with top coming off at speed.

The original top might fit. But I wouldn’t chance it. All the different kit brands are a little different from each other and a little different from the original item.

Best thing is find a place that makes Bimini tops for boats. Extra points if the old top is good enough to take a pattern from.

I’ll be getting a new top for my London Roadster hopefully this year. Any convertible top shop or sail maker probably could make one.

I ended up with outdoor cover for a ‘52 MG TD from California Car Cover Co. The London Roadster is a little smaller than a real TD, so the fit is loose. Yet it stays on and keeps weather out. It does not keep the feral cats from sleeping in it.

Need a replacement top and windows for a London Roadster. Considering attempting to fabricate them myself. Anyone ever done this yourself?

If you have recommendations for where to buy though, chances are I’m gonna end up buying if I can find ones that fit, but concerned I won’t be able to find them. Do actual TD tops and windows fit a London…[Read more]

Here’s a video from an unknown photographer showcasing the event. Very well done.

This past weekend was the Pagoda Hillclimb in nearby Reading, PA. It was quite the spectacle. Saturday morning we were greeted by intermittent pouring rain. My first two runs I left my pit area to go to the start line with a light mist in the air. At the start line the skies opened up and I ran in a downpour. As the day went on the weather…[Read more]

Probably worth the asking price just for the grill. Like the wheels.

This just popped up on a Facebook page. The price is right.

I purchased this car with a bill of sale only. The prev owner got it from Florida and had a promise of paperwork from the seller to be given when he got it from DMV. That never happened and he got frustrated after dealing with NJ DMV with no luck. Now I sent all info required to them in my name and they are stonewalling me and say he needs to 1st…[Read more]

Ken, I ran the 2300 Pinto engine for years. Bored out, cammed, headers, 4 barrel carb, etc. I eventually killed it at a Hillclimb. I ignored a misfire and put a hole in a piston.

Currently, I’m running a Ford 302 V8 crate motor. 300 hp, 348 ft/lbs torque with Sniper injection. A big jump from the 2.3. Still running the same 5 speed and Ford 8…[Read more]
