Post photos, J byrd. I had my pedal assembly out of Bridget over the winter. bit of a PIA to remove and replace, but not nearly as bad as, say, rear torsion bar reindexing. Everything can be done by you with hand tools, most likely.

I used the Moss Motors one for the TD. Bolts in at the bumper brackets and includes built-in foglight mounts.Might be a little more $$ than boat stuff, but not much, no cutting or measuring or drilling, and very durable so far.

Ditto the thanks, Paul. Let us know if there is anything we can do to help.

Mine’s the second link. Works nice, makes the car much safer and it looks much more authentic as well–best change I’ve made so far and not really very hard to do. I recommend everyone do it.

Nice!

Let me guess – You went for the buy 4 tires get one free rebate and when
you sent in the rebate w/ the recept they said the tires you choose were
not in the program even though the store said they were – been there done
that

Maybe buy new drums or rotors and have them drilled to your new bolt pattern. Then you won’t be sticking out an extra inch.The wheels you want though–how’s the back spacing on those compare to the VW steelies? I’d check that first.

Welcome to the forum, jhbyrd!

Welcome. I watched it again recently. I still like it.

Wow, another famous member! Or were you already famous?

Sorry. I went in and pulled a bunch of stuff I’d posted for some folks working with me on a longer vid at work. Inadvertently privatized that one too.Should be viewable now. BTW–mute the sound. Something went haywire with the audio on it.

Wow.Good to hear from you again, G. We got a new member who’s fooling with a Buick 215 conversion in one of these, I think you two should talk. Look around the thread called “Another Project Reported.”

I’d rotate the steering box just a bit. It’s only one bolt. If the line was straight before, it’s not now, and you’ll rip your coupler. It’ll take some time, but it will happen.

Horn button on my BCW was standard issue three-bolt Grant. something like this should work. I think there’s a lot of those Grant Classic bits hanging around peoples’ garages.

Didn’t our spacecraft builder guy use an S-10 rear? Or just the engine?

Post pics!

Jim,

I was there this Spring – was another TD there as well – was that you?

Any pics of that?

How many New-Yorkers is that, Paul?

Stafford VA – maybe 30 miles southeast?
We have a small group of TD and speedster owners in the 100 mile
area and hope to get together around Sept in MD, but I was still hoping
to put something together or this summer in the Blue ridge – maybe Skyline
Dr. – anyway we should try and get together some time.
