HappyJack replied to the topic New Shifter in the forum VW Based Kits 10 years, 10 months ago

Hey Ed,

I assume that a knob goes on top of the shaft??? And that the knob presses down to unlock reverse???

Other than not having the 3 – 4 bias, how does this shifter compare to my shifter in Emma? (an EMPI short, Trigger shifter)?

I’m sorry we ran out of time at Carlisle and I did not get to try driving your TD — maybe when we get to Va Be…

If I weren’t all the way out here where you’re headed I’d seriously consider.

I’ve always liked those neo-classic T-Birds.

Allen,

Yeah, I guess Cahoots is something you have to do in collaboration with someone else. Want to join me?

Send one from Cahoots! Wait…you can’t go to Cahoots without someone! Sounds like a great trip.
Rosebud and Bill replied to the topic Cross Country via the Back Roads in the forum General Discussion 10 years, 10 months ago

Roy,

I will take my laptop with me, and if I got a connection, I’ll send up to the minute posts from Cowabunga, USA or where ever I end up.

The shaft does not spin like the stock one so the knob can be oriented right and it stays that way.

I’ve always wondered why my shift knob rotates as I drive.

Bill, WOW!!! I hope that you can keep us at the TDreplica site up to date on your progress. One hell of an ambitious undertaking. This will surely get you into the TDr Hall of Fame.

Nice!
Paul Mossberg replied to the topic Bearings in the forum VW Based Kits 10 years, 10 months ago

Now, now, Ed. You’re the writer, and yet you mis-quote my words?

I said I was pretty sure. I never said I “knew.”

There. I feel better now.
edward ericson replied to the topic HELP/ Kit Weight in the forum General Discussion 10 years, 10 months ago

I’d guess 500-600 lbs, but just a guess. Anyone got their old CMC bill of lading?
edward ericson replied to the topic Bearings in the forum VW Based Kits 10 years, 10 months ago

If that’s what you’re into, I guess I’ll try it.
billnparts replied to the topic Bearings in the forum VW Based Kits 10 years, 10 months ago

How ’bout we dip you in sh*t and call you Stinky instead?
Bob replied to the topic RUST, y'alls in the forum General Discussion 10 years, 10 months ago

Oxygen be damned!

Makes me think the undercoating might have either had some surface rust when applied, got through from the other side or the undercoating itself failed somehow (too thin? cracking? scuffed?).

My car was undercoated and I haven’t given it much thought, so I need a look at it too!
Bob replied to the topic Memorial Day 2015 in the forum Clubs and Show 10 years, 10 months ago

Thanks all, reading more about both things (visors+wings) if I can still use the convertible top I can move onto getting them. Looks like my windshield frame is okay for it.
edward ericson replied to the topic Bearings in the forum VW Based Kits 10 years, 10 months ago

Paul…how long we been friends? I can’t believe you’d be so cold like that. And speaking for all the other guys too. How do YOU KNOW no one wants to tickle me keister?
secretagentcat replied to the topic Wire harness from MAGIC in the forum VW Based Kits 10 years, 10 months ago

When I started the project I kept the existing wires intact then I thought that if I wasnt happy with it in the first place then why keep looking at it. It was a real mess. I ripped it all out then proceeded to overbuild everything. Ive got a 12 fuse box and most of my wires are 12 guage. The headlights are 10 guage as well as the ignition wires.…[Read more]
