New into the forum,

Hello from Puget Sound Washington.  I have just become the proud owner of one of these impressive replicas. I fell in love with the MGTD original when I was allowed to sit in one at my high school auto shop class(way back when ).  

Spent most of my career working on the water and now looking at retirement and some day trips with this little beauty, already notice head turning as I pass by.

Was brousing the internet a couple of months ago, saw a replicar for sale, felt attached immediately, flew to North Ca.rolina, and purchased it as soon as I saw it.  Like some of the posts that I have been reading, theres not much published materials to help with general maintenance.  Putting the shout out for any direction to get any information.  The registration has little information.  This little jewel is supposed to be a 1953 MGTD Allison “Daytona” replica built in 1984, in Florida.  It is somewhat unusual as what I’ve read, most are rear VW engines with standard transmissions, this one is a 4 cylinder diesel front end engine with a three speed automatic. 

Would appreciate any feedback.
