Hate reading this thread. (Not really, but ya’ll know what I mean.)

Turns out both feet will be in protective boots for a few weeks after my surgery. So I won’t be able to drive, not even my normal daily drivers.

And the doc really wants me taking it easy for a few weeks post-op. Would one of ya’ll please tell Susanne she should be bringing my…[Read more]

Well done Andy!

Hope you’ll stick around. Lots of VW powered TDr’s here. We could certainly use an expert advice!

Also hope you direct the Fiberfab owner our way!

The short version …

Instead of a new pulley, I’ll install a V8! 😆

Nice!

Really wish one of those would work on my Duchess. But because of the way the engine cover is hinged (at the bottom, on top of the rear valance) I’ve not been able to engineer a solution.

Occasionally I’ll grab an adult beverage and some Runyon rack pictures and sit there staring at it. So far, the result of those endeavors have been…[Read more]

Hopefully a London Roadster owner will reply. Meanwhile, you might take a look through the registry for other LR owners and contact them directly. Might get a quicker response that way.

On My Duchess, I accomplished that by cutting away some of the fiberglass on the rear valance (wasn’t much, and I followed the rough outline of the engine block. I have to remove the crank pulley…[Read more]

Voices are the number of participants in a specific thread (not the number of times they have posted; one member posting ten comments on a single thread is still one “voice”).

If I  recall correctly, Classic Roadsters had mods for either the Ford or Chevy drivetrains. This many years later, it would not surprise me to see “hybrids” out there.

Thanks David!

That’s a new one for me!

Love this event…but am a definite maybe this year.

Trying to schedule my third surgery of the year. One foot procedure and one meniscus repair already done.  One more foot deal to go. The best time may be mid to late September. I’ll be off my feet for four to five weeks post-op. Stay tuned….

Great video Bill. And great driving!

I really like the camera placement. Perfect view. And you appear to have worked out the engine/road noise vs wind noise balance!

That’s our man Ed. Always working in the shadows. Or is that lurking? I’m never quite sure!

As always, thank you for your hard work on our behalf!

I’ve no problem with the name change to “MG TD Replica Car Club”.

While the primary membership has been owners, we have always had “fans” and “seekers” here.

Stephen,

So happy to see you spending time on your TDr…and not spending all your time working on the TD website!

Kudos!

That’s terrific news Stephen!

Congratulations!
