Good to hear things weren’t too badly damaged. Lots of wind and 29 for the high today here in Iowa.
My good news is that the pattern you sent me made it to my door today. Thank you so much for your help. I cut a pattern out of plexiglas and test fit it in the three sided frame I have. It fits great with only a little trimming having been…[Read more]

Is there a way I could get a traced outline of just the windshield glass? I have a FiberFab MiGi II kit. Butcher paper from a meat counter should be large enough. Newspaper taped together would work too.
I have a kit that is missing the glass so I will need to get one cut locally. A pattern would really help get the size and shape right. -

Happy birthday youngster.
If you do any camping at National Parks or utilize Federal Recreational Lands look into the Federal Senior Pass and it’s benefits. One of the benefits is 1/2 price camping at the campgrounds they control. You are eligible at 62 and it is a lifetime pass for only $10.00 upfront. -

I maybe didn’t make myself clear. Even if you have emptied the trash/deleted bin and can’t find it anywhere, you can still recover the deleted massages by following what I wrote. I only know this works with Hotmail and Outlook… not sure about the others.

I assume you want to remove the piston from the rod and can’t get to the retaining clip for the wrist pin.

Try soaking top of the piston and the bore with Coca-Cola overnight. Next morning pour the Cola out and spray with penetrating oil. Let sit for a while and try to drive the piston out the bottom. This worked for me on a corroded piston.

“One plate year” does that mean that cars only had one plate displayed on the car in 1953? Or, that the plates were only used one year and then new plates were issued to be displayed on the car?

Welcome… Glad you are here. Your being here means that I am not the New Guy anymore. There is lots of good information in the archived posts. Just do a search for whatever comes to mind about the TD replicas.

Hi Ernie. I am also a proud new owner of a partially completed MG TD replica. I hope your kit is more complete than mine is. But then, what would a project be without some challenges? This seems to be a great site for info on the TD replicas so look around. Be sure to read the older forum posts as there is a lot of information in them.
