The Motorcycle Community has amazing looking caps – many are screw in.  Does anyone here know if the filler neck for a Harley is the same size as the generic looking cap I posted here?  That would be the simplest and most cost effective fix for my particular “problem”

Thanks but I ment where the guy reworked the fiberglass on cowl so original mg td posts would fit. The Fiberfab is square and TD is round he shows how to cut fiberglass and reglass to fitlangan2016-01-19 22:41:57

Hey Langan, I looked up on google for a Windsheild/Glass company, and they cut me a new flat autoglass windshield. They installed it in my orginal Dutchess TDr frame, all for about $150. Just a thought. I also purchased on line from a Dune Buggy web site, new rubber gaskets and the frame to car car molding. I do not remember the cost for the new…[Read more]

See you guys Thursday, hopefully before dinner. 

Thursday through Sunday !!

Wish I had the option of natural gas, both for the house and garage. A big disadvantage of my more rural setting – that, and lack of cable TV/internet.

You might want to check out hot air gas furnaces like used in older mobile homes. They are compact small units that easily hook up and supply quick heat. You likely could get a used one cheaply at a mobile home supplier.

Well, I know you all like pictures, so I’ll try to include in this post.
