nope

I know that part. As I recall, it is part of the frame brace that holds the windscreen frame together. If I were you I’d take the screen apart to see how to improve it. No idea where you’d get a new one. The design is slightly different from a TD.

Thanks.  Did you need to narrow the Mustang II rear?

Really enjoyable post!  Yes, a very respectable time.  Are the specs for your car listed anywhere?

Moving to FL is a good move.  A few years ago I moved to Merritt Island.  Can drive the MGTDr just about anytime you want.  How did the auction end?  Keep it and get a car cover?  Either way you will enjoy FL.

Welcome! For the engine side of things pick up a John Muir Idiots Guide to keeping your VW alive. That will be useful for the engine and most of the mechanical side of things.

I agree, the wind noise is annoying, sorry.

Glad to meet you, Roger.

Looks like a terrific time!Thanks for sharing these!

Bill, before the next hillclimb, please google how to reduce wind noise on your Go Pro. (If we could hear the exhaust, we would know your shift points and the video would be much better.) Please don’t think that I didn’t enjoy your YouTube postings.Royal2015-06-28 16:44:28

Did I mention that the great Ed Ericson is up on the hill working turn 7 withy son David. They’ve had to assist with about a half dozen incidents with cars and guard rails and cars and trees.

Only 10 hours left on my EBAY sale of my LR. Lots of watcher’s but still no bids. Could be a disappointing end for someone not getting the car because they waited too long. Did get a note from the prior owner because he was happy that the car was still in such good shape. Runs like a champ.
