I have watched a bunch of videos.  I think I have a lead on an older man who used to do it at a machine shop.

most definitely a good looking car

I have found a couple pull switches that are supposed to be momentary contacts that are more like our dash pull switches Cole Hersee M486 Pull-Type Momentary Switch

It is typical that a starter switch is always hot.  I was told that it was  so the the max amps goes to the starter.  But you have to have the key turned on to get electricity to the coil. Otherwise no spark so no start.That is kind of a bad design today because people crank the starter with the key off and wear down the battery. Especially if yo…[Read more]

I went on to Moss motors to look at one.  It is an unusual shape.  The part behind the dash.  I wounder How big it is?.  It size might cause problems with it installation.On our TDr it is amazing how room is up ther comapred to a normal car.  Normal cars have so much crammed up under their dash.  

A pull starter.  That’s cool.  My antique ford have push starters.  Was an original MG TD 6 or 12 volts?

Opps I forgot that oneor if you are a fan of Jack Lemon in the Great Race you could say”Push the Button Max”

Having had antique cars with generators, I appreciate a modern alternator.when the gen went out on my MGTDr I put in an alternator.  It only took about an hour.   There are some good videos on you tube if you want to do it yourself.

I am not very good at these MGTDr cars yet.  I didn’t even notice the fold down wind screen.  That is so awesome.  Break out the aviator goggles.The rear tail light I put on has the licenses plate light.  The original Model A fords had one tail light with the license plate mounted beneath the light.  It was light through a clear glass lens at the…[Read more]

I used the existing license plate light bracket.  It took a couple of hours of modification.  Just drill press and file w…[Read more]

Here is what it looks like at night.  It is quite bright.I wasn’t sure how it would turn out putting a Chinese made replacement part for an antique American Ford on a modern car made in America based on a British made car sitting on top of a German design chassis made in Mexico.

That would be awesome.  The better the template the better the results.I have pm’ed youThanksLost

I put a Dorman set in my MGTDr.  I bought it from Amazon.I put them only on the seat not the back.I did not know how well they would work and since the seats fold forward I wasn’t sure if it would be a problem.  Also since normally if it cold you wear a jacket that would insulate you from the heater.They work great. It was an easy install.  In fa…[Read more]
