Try as I might, I am not able to convert my video to a format that I can export.

Anyway, this weekend I’m heading to Summit Point. The 2+ mile Shenandoah circuit is one I have yet to run. Wish me luck.

As did Mark, I also went with agreed value with Hagerty. It’s hard to apply a hard and fast value on these as they are all different.

Pretty much. The fuse panel should have both “Hot all the time” as well as “Hot with key on only”. If you have wiring with melted insulation, replace the wires. Good luck.

That’s how I would do it.

Nice acquisition. With the V6 that thing will be a load of fun. Enjoy.

Great find, Lino. IMHO, a small V6 is just about ideal for these little cars. I look forward to seeing more of this one.

Thankee!

Oh that is cool!

Very pretty. Looks in great shape. Enjoy. Love the wires.

The badge bar is a correct place to mount auxiliary lights on a TD. The Moss badge bar has mounting brackets for the fog and/or driving lights built in. There were several different types of TD badge bars, and you can see some had light brackets and some didn’t. The correct lights are made by Lucas.

The originals are actually quite good. I can’t…[Read more]

If you mount the lamps to the badge bar, drill a hole in the bar and route the wires through the bar and mounting bracket to the underside of the fender.

Have you tried  a manual reset of the trip meter?  That might realign all the numbers.(Maybe)

Use a very small screwdriver to pry the bezel edge out. Go slow and shallow. After you get about 2/3 around you’ll be able to take it off. Do it carefully; there’s a gasket in there and the face may be glass.

Here’s the one I ran until I put the Subaru engine in the car.

It’s everything you want in a stock(ish) Bug or kit TD: easy on the pocketbook, easy to install, and fairly quiet but with a slightly throaty growl. The bonus for us: it actually looks like a TD exhaust. The tip comes out at exactly the right spot and there’s no viper’s nest of…[Read more]

It’s there. I can pull it up, but, you’re right, a general search does not work. Send your email address to ‘billnparts@yahoo.com” and I’ll try to send it direct.

The bels should be mounted into the frame or some structural metal. The outboard belt is easy enough, you can bolt it into the frame rail. The inboard is not so easy. There is nothing there but fiberglass. When I had my safety cage constructed the chassis shop installed a metal brace off the frame to mount the belt. In lieu of that, use the…[Read more]

My VDO Speedo was doing the same thing. I decided to take it apart. I found there was a jackshaft between gear sets that had become misaligned. It snapped back into place easily enough. Problem fixed. Replacement bezels are available on the VDO website.

Search for forum topic “ Odometer” for photos and detailed instructions.

Hope this helps.
