I would suggest calling them for advice. I’ve called them many times and they are a very nice and patient bunch.You may be able to as you think, be able to shorten your bows by a smidgen on both sides, and use trial and error. Small amounts at a time.They also sell the bows,just in case.

I like that Sterkowski site, Bill. I think I need a new summer weight flat cap from them.

A few shots from the weekend:
Alan Merklin explaining to Kelly Frazier about his broken rocker arm adjusters.
Red line.
I always get a kick out of seeing one of these on the road…
Car guys are everywhere: even in the Army museum.
Schu would’ve totally bought this car if the seat had been right for him???and if it was $2,800 instead of $28,000.

As it seems people are reporting arriving home without mishap, albeit Bill seems to have been followed by a dark cloud, only challenge I had was misdirection with GPS. Did not realize there was a problem until an hour into the trip and ETA was showing midnight as opposed to late afternoon, an extra 8 hours to the trip. Was able to drive by dead…[Read more]

Arrived home around 11:00 with the clutch not working again. Once I got off the turnpike I used a bunch of back roads go get home without being a nuisance to other cars. Only had to come to a full stop once and from there I could see the house. It turns out the lower mounting bolt on the clutch master had backed out and the cylinder was co…[Read more]

MGA ran 15 inch wheels. You can get tubeless painted wires 60 spoke from MOSS Motors. About $225.00 a wheel.

Here is where you can get a new throttle arm connector.
It has a cable end repair piece included but for 4.95 not a bad deal. -

A note on fender mirrors.
I bought the convex mirrors from Moss about a month after I got my car, 2009. They were something like $38 for both, shipped. Looks like they’re still about the same.I later got a set of long stem motorcycle mirrors and bolted them to the windshield mounts. They work too.But I haven’t had them on the car for quite some… -

Back home safe. Got in about an hour ago. Stopped once on the highway to help someone else who was pulled over in a BMW, but they left as I was getting out of the car.
Not much rain or leakage. I’d never driven on the highway before with the side curtains; wasn’t bad at all.Great seeing you all. Rain ain’t bother us! -

Drilling it out, that’s brilliant! If anyone has anymore creative ideas or links to parts, let me know!

Tom Vilardi replied to the topic MGTD/MGTDR Comments? in the forum General Discussion 9 years, 3 months ago
Thanks for the dimension comparison – that’s what I was looking for. I knew the TD hood was shorter by at least two inches from the TDr because I have an original as a comparison.
I’ll have to check my BCW rear fenders against original photos.Are the MGA wires 15 inch or 14 inch? Are you able to run tubeless radials on them?Personally I woul… -
secretagentcat replied to the topic Throttle cable in the forum TD Replicas 9 years, 3 months ago
Im pretty sure Ive seen that part at MG Magic as well. I have the same set up on my car. The throttle cable should slide into the new end and fasten with a set screw. Then the long end will slide into the inlet on the carb and secure with the screw. To get the broken screw out you may need to drill it out and use a self threading screw to replace…[Read more]
