I had a rubbing problem also up front . Front fender brace is adjustable so I moved the fender brace up a inch and it took care of it.There was also rubbing in rear. The brake line was rubbing against the tire . Both easy fixes

When it disappears after hitting “Post Reply” hit the back screen arrow and it will reappear. Happens to me every time.
Royal replied to the topic Just testing in the forum Rules and Etiquette 11 years, 8 months ago

Ed, welcome. Disappearing posts sometimes happens to me also. I usually drag across the post and copy it before hitting “post”.

This is a great forum. I’m sure that you will enjoy it.

Thanks. Its great to know there are supportive folks out there. Its a long haul to get to the finish line. Don’t want this to become a DNF like its first life.
Royal replied to the topic Allison "Daytona" & TDr lineage in the forum General Discussion 11 years, 8 months ago

Paul, you are right that “parent” is not an accurate word. Except, it is my understanding, in the case of LR & Fiberfab. I really was only addressing appearance. I once read an old magazine that credited Daytona as the first. Unfortunately, can’t remember which mag.
Paul Mossberg replied to the topic Allison "Daytona" & TDr lineage in the forum General Discussion 11 years, 8 months ago

I wouldn’t call Daytona the “parent.” For example, the Daytona lineage has nothing to do Classic Roadsters Ltd. They did their own design for the way the body goes together and built their own molds. I’m sure other manufactures id the same.And I’m not sure who was first to the game.

If you have stock VW wheels, there should be enough clearance.In addition to Kent’s questions, has the front suspension been lowered?When questions like this come up, we all tend to focus on the wheels,
tires and suspensions. We forget most of these cars were built by
amateur mechanics (like me!!) in their back yards. There are a lot of
places…[Read more]

I’m for upgrade parking on the Tarmac. A caravan entry would be a given. A simple parade from the hotel.

69 or 70. A 71 would have dual port heads. Single or dual reliefs will tell if a 69 or a 70. Looking inside the valve covers won’t tell you anything about engine size. If 69 then 1500cc if 70 then 1600cc (probably).

IF it has never been rebuilt. Few people rebuilt 1500cc engines and used the smaller jugs, because the 1600c…

Is he running aftermarket wheels? They often have a different offset than the factory wheels.

You can get a narrower front torsion beam to move the wheels in, closer to the floor pan…
