When using a tow dolly, the front wheels can go on the dolly

I have towed my London Roadster and my 1967 VW Beetle flat with a tow bar. Put the gear shift in neutral and DO NOT tie the steering wheel. You CANNOT back up with a car on a dolly or a tow bar. If your tow vehicle is rated anything over 2500 lbs, you should keep an eye on the towed car to make sure it is still there. You won’t feel it. I have u…[Read more]

It all depends on too many factors. If the car is in great shape snd the engine and tranny are good, you may have gotten a great deal, indeed.

After my London Roadster road worth and I could drive it again, I wanted insurance coverage with Hagerty at agreed value. I looked at current prices for running kit cars in good condition.

Wow! That’s more than I paid for two speedometer rebuilds.

North Hollywood Speed shop in California ir Dick’s Speed & Tach in Tempe (Phoenix), Arizona are two of the remaining repair shops.

The knob in the car now is wood with the correct VW shift pattern. Mine twists, also. I have ordered the MG shift pAttern knob and will try it out. I’ll report back after s few shows locally. I’ll see if anyone notices.

That Carburetor really likes to drink the fuel. I am not used to such a gas hog. The engine is about a 1776cc VW. If I go back to a Solex Carb, I have s few questions

Very nice!
