    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.

    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.

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

    Will need to pass on Carlisle this year.  Haven’t seen the grandkids in NC for over a year.  They will both be playing in baseball tournaments the same weekend as Carlisle.  Wife and I have gotten both doses if the vaccine and have decided the baseball tournament’s is a event we can’t miss.  Looking forward to 2022!

    I had the same problem.  I cut off the turn signal arm and drilled hole and threaded.  Took a length of 1/8″ threaded rod and bent to desired shape, covered it with a piece of fuel line and added a knob.  A bolt at connection point locks it in place so it won’t turn.
