The radiator shroud and grill is 26 years old but I did run it by a buffing wheel to get rid of a lot of small scratches. The light blue compound works best for stainless.

Get another one and mount them under the windshield posts where the union jack cloissons get mounted. Then you’d have an MGTD Poney!    I will say I like how your grille looks. Nice and shiney.newkitman2013-10-10 13:28:27

I’m with you, Gabe, but I’d go a step further. Find another to match that one, and mount them on either side just in front of the doors. Or maybe on the rear someplace.

A little levity….

Well, that’s the first thing I’ve seen you do I do not approve of. That does not belong there…I do hope you’re kidding.

That’s awesome!And looks better there than on a Mustang II

My guess…the straps are the ones which wrap around the top bows and are used to pull the two bows together to put tension on the roof when it is up.PMOSSBERG2013-10-09 16:17:34

Good news!

I’ve worked with the bracket but no help. I have a fix for now and posted it on the fender rubbing thread. Thanks for all the input.

Thanks. I’ve got a fix for now and found the fender rubbing thread and posted what I did there. Thanks to all of you for your input.

Ok…..Here is what I’ve done so I can drive my car WITHOUT the tire rubbing the fender. For now…I have re-installed the coil-over shock that was on there. BUT…. I took two of the big washers that holt the bushing on the top of the shock and put them on first face to face. then added two flat washers, now the bushing stubbed it up thru the…[Read more]

Good luck Bill.  My whole system is new and I’m testing the heck out of it trying to gain confidence.  

Glad you did that. My car’s MC is probably due for replacement too… I bought one last year and then did not install it.

One never notices the slow degradation of systems when used on a regular basis. When test driving the beast I became unnerved by the feel of the brake pedal. It was no different from when I had parked her, but having not driven her in quite a while it was obvious something was wrong. When I went to test the master cylinder pressure there appeared…[Read more]

I think I saw this earlier in eBay but the pictures were not fogged. Pretty good deal being its already on a VW chassis. It’ll be interestinng to see what it goes for.
