A good Auto Trim shop can supply the correct plastic. I drove mine for years as a daily driver. Parked outside in the weather and driven year round. Remember the winter of ’95-’96? The correct plastic will outlast the zippers.

Isn’t it great? I remember the butterflies as it came together. Every day getting closer to somethingyou could take out on the street.

I will be out Friday morning. Not sure if Patti will attend. She wants to, but work requirements dictate that it would be a last minute decision. I am so looking forward to seeing you all again.

Yeah. I’m down for Caddy Shack and all. It’s a two hour run from my house, so that means taking Thursday off–both of us. Which is why I say “I hope.”

edward ericson replied to the topic VW vs Bosch distributor in the forum VW Based Kits 13 years, 3 months ago
that is right. Roy. Pertronix now. And yeah on the exhaust leak, which I probably caused when I installed the muffler. I will check that this winter.

I heard that number 3 retard story and believed it. As I have the old single relief, case, single port heads and the old school fan shroud I’m guessing I should have that timing quirk–but don’t know if I do. I am running a vaccuum dizzy with a 34 PICT 3 carb. And it’s not quite right. Pops a little on decel during normal operation and cracks…[Read more]

edward ericson replied to the topic New EBay listing! in the forum Running MGTD Kits Cars for Sale 13 years, 3 months ago
Nice looking car. Not a BCW. The signal lights, windshield, door latches, hood hinges and front splash pan are all different from what BCW kits have. Look at the 9th picture: BCWs have a tell-tale break in the fender there where the steering shaft pokes through on its way to the steering box. The dash is not BCW issue either. Nor the taillights,…[Read more]

I like the idea for several reasons. But I do think its value will come only if the database is maintained for many years.I also think we’ve got something similar already in our membership roster and map, which the proposed registry could augment and link to. Why do I like it.1. The practical. As Roy says, having an as complete as possible record…[Read more]
