I replaced all of my instruments, including speedometer obtained from Classic Instruments. At the time, 2011, they sold a adapter for VW, a cable that fit square home in front wheel bearing cap with electronic transducer that interfaced with speedometer.

Wondering if anyone has replaced the shift bushing on VW based TD’s. The shift rod has a socket which engages the shift lever. There is is not enough clearance for this socket to pass beyond the tubes that come out of the EM brake location, 2 for brakes and one for heater. On a normal VW, the socket is located forward of the EM brake so clearance…[Read more]

I have been running a PerTronix electrotonic ignition and associated coil in my 1776 since I build it about 20 years ago. Happy with performance, no regrets. Still carry set of ordinal points in car as backup.

Agree with Ed. When I had my top made about 20 years ago the canvas shop wanted about $150 more than the stock top from MG Magic. As a plus they inserted a nylon piece at front of top where it goes into the slot in windshield frame. I have never had an issue with top coming off at speed.

Probably worth the asking price just for the grill. Like the wheels.

I had the exact problem with a crack years ago. The good ting is the windshield is flat. The glass replacement firm just cut a piece of flat stock to fit.-
Hi,Al,
Thanks so much for the quick reply. What glass service did you use? Local independent or national chain? Thx again.-

VW don’t leak oil, they just mark their spot, sort of like a male dog.
