I had a top with side windows made at a marine upholstery shop. They did not even have my old top as a pattern. We discussed several times concerning an appropriate design. It turned out well and the cost was a little more than what MGMagic charged for a top. Down side was that I was turned down several times by at least 10 shops before f…[Read more]

Rene Toussaint replied to the topic How can I tell what year it is? in the forum General Discussion 4 months, 2 weeks ago
The number I located on top of the tunnel would that also be considered the VIN number? If no one knows the answer I guess the only way to find out is if there is a member her that has a 1969 VW bug sedan to locate that number on theirs and compare it to their known VIN number.
If that is not the VIN number then who assigns a number and when? Is…[Read more]

I have a 1982 London Roadster. The top got quite beat up by southern Florida sun and salt-water. I asked around at a few boat shops (coastal Maine), but none would take on the job. That was about 20 years ago so my memory is a bit faded as to the reasons they gave.
I ended up making a new one myself. I ruined a sewing machine and what seemed like…[Read more]

Well if a ready made top is not available, the next best option would be to have one made. A good tri, shop would be able to make one from scratch. check out boat upholsterers.

While my London Roadster is running, I will need a new top for it. The only gauge working now or correctly is the speedometer, I think. The fuel level gauge, tachometer, oil pressure gauges do not appear to be working at all.
Magic MG does not carry tops that will fit the LR. Any thoughts or other sources?

On Nov 12th, more back-end updates.
As is the world of software, there are always more updates on the way. I expect there to be minimal downtime.

Stefan replied to the topic Final Drive Seal in the forum VW Based Kits 5 months ago
Want to reply to myself in case it helps anyone in the future.
The seal needs to be the right size: 36x60x9.5 worked much easier than the other larger types I tried.
Anything large enough to encompass the seals diameter will work to hammer on. I used a spool of soldering wire, but even a specific seal drivers can be bought at Harbor Freight for…[Read more]

I cannot seem to get this final drive seal on my transmission. I wanted to use a socket and hammer it in, but I do not own a big enough socket to do so. It seems like the 36x60x45 seal I have tried using was too large, and subsequent seals that I have bought have not fit either. I bought some 36x60x36 seals to try again for the third time.
I want…[Read more]

@pmossberg Hi I have just joined the club and had a quick run through of the site. I have a 1953 Allison Daytona but have not seen any mentions of Allison’s on here but did have Daytona. Can I take it as this is the Allison? Thank you from Mike T.

What’s new That would me. New kid in town. Car guy for over 7 decades and kit car guy since the 60s. Computers are the bane of my existence , but I use them because they are handy. Usually with multiple errors, so I beg your understanding in advance. I recently picked up a partially done kit with what I hope are the majority of pieces. Time will…[Read more]
