Wow! Good job!

This thread reminds me: I’ve got some dodginess in my tail lights as well. Spent half a day last year looking for shorts, bad grounds, weak bulbs, corrosion, etc. Everything checked out, and one side is dimmer than the other. I bet one side is mis-wired.

That settles it! Paul, where’s your house on this map? And when are you going on vacation, so we can all show up, empty your freezer onto your grill, and lounge in your pool?

Hey, Cliff: Welcome aboard. If your car really has 100 horsepower it will be one of the stronger TD replicas out there. It weighs about 1800 pounds (200 less than the original TD), and has twice the power of a stock VW engine.

A few Julys ago, I saddled-up my 1500-cc(?), 46-horse BCW, loaded in a couple day’s provisions, and my wife, and drove…[Read more]

That Lehigh Valley tour looks pretty cool. We should consider that. A bridge tour from Carlisle sounds promising as well.🚗💨💨

Thanks for posting that, Paul. I think I want to do it…

And yeah, Allen, there have been a couple cruises from the Carlisle field that included covered bridges. Probably time to resurrect.

I consider the second one a spare. If the one you’re using ever fails, clean the terminals and plug in the other one.

I have a mapped out covered bridge ride in Delaware/Chester/Lancaster Counties that the Historical Car Club of PA does for its Spring Run.  The run is limited to members of the club but if you want the route I can forward it to you.

The other alternative is to join HCCP, the fees are $15.00 a year, and show up for the Blossom Run (this year it w…[Read more]

I mapped out a prospective run in Northern Delaware a few years ago, ending at Stoney’s, a British pub. But it never came together.

That does look like fun. Last couple years, I’ve been doing the Historic Races at Lime Rock on that weekend…maybe switch it up this year if people are into it.

I added one to my truck. I have it on a toggle switch so I can keep an eye on the MG while she’s being towed.

Like Bill said. Check all the things. Make sure there is no air in the system (a problem in my car with the engine so far away from the grill). Make sure you have a good fan shroud, good thermostat, good water pump, fan belt, fan (turned the right way), all that good stuff.

If all that checks out, and she still overheats, then think about cutting…[Read more]

May sound silly, but I’ve seen the electric fan installed incorrectly and instead of sucking air through the radiator it is trying to push the air forward, completely defeating its purpose. With the 4 core and a working thermostat, venting should be unnecessary.

Good point. I like it.

Yeah man!

Glad to see you back, Crash!
