I roped Karen into the local MG club’s Get the Dust Off ralleye a coule years ago. With no trip odometer or stopwatch, it was something of a challenge. We did not win but, remarkably, we did not come in last.

There’s even a holder back there for your Grey Poupon.

Build two TDs, I think?

I realize its only July, but is there enough interest to contact the Hotel for group discount rates?We have three with Roy, Jack and myself. Paul, you can run with me and pick up Ed and then grab Shu again. Gabe, you can hook up along the way. It would make a splendid parade.

What else do you do when you have two body kits?

Visibility is bad enough with the tops up without the limited view through an even smaller opening.

I also have hagerty at $250, valued at $12k with 0 deductible. Annie is kept at ‘my house’ during the summer and locked up during the winter.Made a claim for a crack in my windshield recently and Hagerty have been brilliant!!!

They want you to insure for higher value because it allows them to charge a higher premium. I think the first couple companies I called (Hagerty may have been one of them) did not want to touch anything under $10k. I bought my car for $3500. I’ve got it insured for like $5k-$6k and the premium is about $110. 

Group 42 is 10Lx7-1/4Wx6-7/8HGroup 47 is 9-9/16Lx6-7/8Wx7-1/2HBe careful of the additional height if its going under your seat.

All credit to Roy on the hard top, I say!Nice job, Roy.

I never knew a tool like that existed. Gonna have to get me one of them darn things.

I use synthetic or semi-synthetic in the daily drivers to stretch the time between changes and because it may lubricate better in the mean time.

Hi GeoffLast time i looked (last week), Moss Motors were cheaper. You will need the rubber spacers too.Dan

I stand corrected.

In MD it’s antique after 25 years. So my 1982 build date rated the “Historic” tag–never mind the ’69 chassis, ’66 engine or ’52 styling.

A classic, indeed.:-)

That’s pretty much the look I was going for, but those carts don’t come big enough.

No “rear body panels” for the hill climb? Time to post pics of that, Bill! You talking about the fiberglas pseudo-“gas tank?”

Me guessing here but I’d think less bolt is better. I believe I read on that Ghia racer’s thread that the snubbers get cut about in half on their application, which woud suggest there is less than full metal inside the snubber.

Well, the fabricator stopped by this evening and he had quite a time getting his head around what I wanted to accomplish. He agreed the removable running board modification was a good idea. Two support tubes that would run rearward from the main hoop by my head posed a puzzle. I told him that the cage was the priority and that the fiberglass…[Read more]
