Wow, I did not know there was such a problem with e bay. 
I have listed my MGTD again — and I will not have any friends bidding — I did set a reserve that was lower than I hoped it would sell for — but who knows.   If anyone is interested — please come by and see it.

I am getting more realistic about what the market might be for a front engine (Chevette) 4 Speed, that is essentially ‘new’.  I am asking $8,000.00 OBO  Call me if interested 850 240 0941.  Thanks, Bill

I have American classic cars for insurance— they seem very good — check them out about the surety bond.

I was going to PM “JWT693 “– to get some info on their trailer — but they must not still be a member –or maybe they changed their file name.

Thanks for all of the input.  I decided to remove the air pump system. The L shaped hose fit then —- I did need to get a new smaller fan belt.  Total fix — less than $15.00.   All is well — Thanks
JUST INFO:   The reason I needed a new lower hose was because the fan blades were actually hitting the side of the hose at high RPM — Yesterda…[Read more]

Paul,   OUTSTANDING effort and RESULTS!!!      Thanks

Thanks,  But I did install seat belts and attached them to the frame.  Bill

I have not gotten mine registered yet — but these comments are great!

NewKitMan Thanks for the comment.  The wheels came with the kit parts —  they are WESTERN after market wheels with a spoke look ( I do not know the model)  the tires are 195/75 tubeless. 
 

Junkman — In Florida — I need to have a court order to direct the DMV to title the car even though the MCO ( or MSO) is lost.  I have moved forward with the civil law suit against the DMV to get the court order.   The filing fee was $400. and $40 more for the Sheriff to serve the papers on the DMV.   Now I have to wait 20 days — if the DMV d…[Read more]

Allen,  The MSO is the Certificate of Origin from the Manufacturer of the kit, or frame, ….    Fiberfab did issue MSOs when their kits were sold—however many of the kits that have sat around ( like yours and mine) do not have the MSO with them anymore.   For Florida — that means NO TITLE WITHOUT A COURT ORDER.  I have checked with a Florida…[Read more]

Not too long ago the Fiberfab web page had an area for ordering a new brass plate.   I would call them to see if they still have some —
The President of the new Fiberfab is very helpful — but does not have old records and can not replace MSOs.

Is my price in line or too high?   I have not gotten much action — but I do not know if its timing or the price.  What I think it is worth — may not be too relavent.  Please advise  Thanks, Bill

I added an interior shot and a shot of the odometer — which shows the type of gauges that are installed.

I put two pictures in the gallery

Has anyone used or even contacted a company that helps you get a title??  The web lists GNT Get New Title —Any experiece with it or others??????
 

Larry,  Thanks for the comments.   I am really the forth owner.   The first owner ( I’ve been told) was a guy named Bill Kelly, who lived in New England somewhere when he bought the kit and then moved to Norcross ( or Duluth ) Georgia with the kit ( he had built it to a rolling Chassis state — but there is no paperwork on the donor car). …[Read more]

Added information:
The distance from the floor to the bottom edge of the short running board piece is 13 in rear and 14 in the front.   The height to the top of the shock brace is 23 3/4.
I knew that the book called for 4 specific coil springs (362193ATD ) and specific shocks (TRW 80822 for the front and TRW 80802 for the rear).  The rolling chas…[Read more]

Thanks Dan  — do you have pictures?
I use seat belts to hold me into position so I can control the car ( just as I did in aircraft) It does not likely help much in a teeth, hair and eye balls crash.
 

Just what I needed —- Thanks,
