@pmossberg Hi I have just joined the club and had a quick run through of the site. I have a 1953 Allison Daytona but have not seen any mentions of Allison’s on here but did have Daytona. Can I take it as this is the Allison? Thank you from Mike T.

I believe @pmossberg had dual ICTs on his Dutchess.

Stephen Houser started the topic Missing pages and upgrade soon in the forum Site Input and Issues 2 years, 2 months ago
We had another relapse where the Library, Gallery, History, and Member pages were reporting as “not found.” After a good night sleep, I remembered we had the same issue back in May. The same one button “fix” did the trick again. Which was in effect resaving WordPress’ permalink settings.
We are on the brink of an update from WordPress from v6.0.3…[Read more]

Stephen Houser started the topic Registration changes in the forum Site Input and Issues 4 years, 8 months ago
In the background @pmossberg and I have been working on fixing our registration problem. Whenever we turn on the “Register” we get a bunch of SPAM registrants. When we turn it off, @pmossberg and I have to manually register people, which means they have to email us and wait for a response. This causes a delay in getting new people in the…[Read more]

@pmossberg The Duchess is in the garage, resting after the long trip from Pennsylvania to Texas. She will soon be back to life and active. Will keep you up to date, and yes visit her anytime.

Stephen Houser started the topic Added an additional signup security question (Resolved) in the forum Site Input and Issues 6 years, 6 months ago
The SPAMmers continue to sign up. To combat this a little bit, I’ve added a second security question to the signup form that needs to be answered to register for the site. If you are trying to sign up and the answer is not evident, pop @pmossberg or myself @stephenhouser an email at webmaster@tdreplica.com and we will get you account sorted.

Stephen Houser replied to the topic The Joys of a 3D Printer in the forum VW Based Kits 6 years, 7 months ago
@pmossberg only if it’s a custom part that’s already designed. That was the difficult part. The printing itself was easy!
@kms1 you can actually buy one for just around $250 these days that will print good enough quality for most things.
I’ve since designed and printed some “reducer” adapters so that my under-seat heater vents properly connect…[Read more]

I activated a new signup spam filter in hopes of slowing the number of fake registrations we get. Will keep an eye on how well it does over the next few days/weeks.
If you are trying to sign up and cannot, please do send @stephenhouser or @pmossberg a message.

Stephen Houser replied to the topic LED Parking and Turn Signal Bulb Question in the forum General Discussion 7 years, 7 months ago
@pmossberg I had the car repainted several years back. The original got beat up by the South Florida sun over it’s first 15 years of life. The paint job isn’t perfect, there’s a bit of “orange peel” and a few defects. Nothing I can’t live with.
I like the color too 🙂
The tail lights are good and bad.

@pmossberg I have a decent page-feed scanner that could do the job. Of course, I’d have to separate all the pages, e.g. cut off any binding, to do the job.
I’ll email you the details.

@pmossberg @kall – As they say, a picture is worth a thousand words. Â The builder fitted the top frame so that it would overhang the rear of the car and no matter how the top is folded it will not fit inside the body shell because the bows extend beyond the shell.

Here’s a possible plan to see if we have any takers.
Date – either Saturday, 03 Sept, or Sunday, 04 Sept.  This is labor day weekend which will allow a buffer for travel and the long range forecast for those days shows good temperatures and low chances of rain. The dates are not set in stone, they are just a proposal, so if anyone has a s…[Read more]

Good news, at least from the administrative side of the site, it looks like the new registration form is really cutting down on spammers! This will free up more of my available time to work on other site changes.
Thanks also to @rosebud-and-bill for reporting one spammer we missed that got in before the new form was in place. Anyone can report a…[Read more]

@pmossberg Darn it. I saw that thread but forgot about it in my testing. I’ll take a look this evening and see if I can get them fixed.
