George, got my carb kit from Advance Auto (Auto Zone also has them and O’Reilly’s). You most probably will have to have them order it, but will only be a day to get it.Sam

Ooops.I forget. I don’t have ready access to my assembly photo album. If I have the instructions, that’s where it will be.But I believe these will help, especially the second one:http://www.grantproducts.com/files/instructions/97520-00-01.pdfhttp://www.grantproducts.com/files/instructions/97506-00-01.pdf

Roy just proved he’s not a Jerseyite! Beach party with Glenfiddich and Caviar? Really?I do second his comment about the tank and fuel lines.George, your info as to where to find the engine case numer is accurate. If there is no number, you likely have an aftermarket block. No worries.Got a pic of that distributor? Roy is right again. If not vacuum…[Read more]

That was pretty funny George! 

George, My kit came with all sorts of extra gaskets for use on all 30/31 carbs.  Sorry, but I can’t remember where I got it from.  I would bet that it really doesn’t matter as that is the way most if not all are packaged.

gkesseru!!That is EXACTLY what I would have had to do. You know exactly what my problems were! Those are the top 3 of my negatives of the Fiber Fab that I sat in. I was also interested in the FiberFab that had been listed in the classified section and was expecting to make those mods. I see the ad is gone. Anyone know where or who it went to?…[Read more]

To add my 2 cents. I lived in Fairlawn before moving to Upper Saddle River. Had an office in Parsippany and known Lake Hopatcong real well. I’m originally from the UK but now live in Pittsburgh. When asked where my accent is from (Cockney Jock) I  typically say New Jersey!

Only a true Jerseyite would invite everyone to someone else’s house for a meet and greet party before ever meeting them!!

Paul, Page 5 of Part 4 says “(note: See steering wheel assembly instruction in the steering wheel box)I don’t see those instructions available for download on the site. Do the instruction include a packing list or item description to give specifications on the shoulder bolts? I only have one and took it in to get two more form a “bolt” supply…[Read more]

Doug

he has all kinds of parts

A detailed look at installing the VW Duchess steering wheel begins on the fifth page of Part 4 – Body and Interior of the Duchess Assembly manual available here on the site.

Search the site.There was a pretty long discussion on wiper arms and blades.

With that kind of attention being paid to the chassis, I’m betting the compelted car is goign to be terrific!Nice work! 

Sorry Roy.Never heard of them.

Jeff,Bottom line is, you can’t tell if a car was delivered as a kit or a turn-key.With all but one of the TD replica manufacturers out of business, there really is no place to look for original customers.I would not expect MG Magic to share their customer list. Seems like a major invasion of their corporate privacy and their customers’…[Read more]

Welcome aboard!My profile says Bath PA…  I may live there, but I am FROM New Jersey! 54 years, in Rahway, West Orange, and New Providence.Jersey strong baby!And may I add…party at GeorgeB’s LBI house! For those you unfortunate enough to NOT be from the great state of New Jersey…LBI  Long Beach Island!

Already looking better!Seems like another TD has found her proper home!

The arm is there . The blade and the blade holder are gone.

Check street rod publications/web sites. Tons of different stuff out there…doesn’t necessarily need to be chevette.

check installation instructions for a grant steering wheel/horn kit. the shoulder bolts hold the adaptor in place.
