It’s just that the last several years when we have gotten together most cars have been red. Unless Roy showed up with his white car, I’ve always been the odd duck.

The VA Beach event hasn’t been posted yet, but should be sometime mid October.

😀 IT’S NOT RED !!!😃

Ah, a project! Don’t worry about rust…if it’s not too bad you can get after it after the VA Beach run.

I’d love to visit Jeeves some time. Looks like he has an even fancier lift than Bridget’s.

Welcome…

Hopefully we can add your car to the convoy to VA Beach this fall.

You found us! Good to meet you, Adam. Look forward to seeing your car.

You found us! Good to meet you, Adam. I’m the guy you stopped this morning in Hunt Valley. Look forward to seeing your car.

The early models using the 1.6 and 2.0 have different engine mounts. I can’t speak for the CMC, but my FiberFab frame was made to simply bolt in the mounts for the 2.3. That aside,   anything else should not be too hard to make work.

How about a MustangII doner? Same thing.

Very stylish!

Lookin’ good.

Good runs as always, Bill. Consistency.

I think I can speak for the SCCA gang there when I say that everyone here is invited to Reading, PA next month for the Duryea event. Show up, get a free t-shirt, hang out nice and close to the track, shoo-away any deer or joggers that get on the road and grab a fire extinguisher if things go south. You also…[Read more]

A side note…

This weekend was the Giant’s Despair Hillclimb outside of Wilkes-Barre, PA. My son went for the first time. David ran the Sharpie car and on his second run set a new class record.

Okay, here you go. A collection of photos and film from this years Pagoda Hillclimb. At the end of the run at the turnaround the first person you see in the shadows on the right is our very own Ed Ericson (edsnova).

Well, I’m much too far away to make this affordable, but can you do me a favor? I’m curious as to the back spacing on these. Can you just lay a straightedge on the back side and measure down to the mounting face? I wonder what that number is.

Welcome to the group, Phil. We’ll try to help you any way we can. Please post photographs of your car so we can see. (Posting photos is a bit of a process here; sorry.)

Not sure about a “Bradley” but would like to see pics of your manual. There are some differences among the various kits but in the main all the Beetle kits are pretty…[Read more]

Hi David:

Thx for the reply.

I’m assuming that the gauges work (except the temp) as the did before I removed the dash. I will give this a shot.

I was hoping not to have to remove the dash again but it is probably easier that way

Yeah. Bridget’s old hubcaps are those rare no-logo style & have the correct MG TD center emblems—or 4 of them do. The spare has a larger BCW emblem. They’re old but in good shape. Since I went to wire wheels I think I ought to let them go. PM me if you’re interested.

Looks good. Need hubcaps?
