The car looks great Ed! You know I really like the combination of wheels (wide in the rear). You did a fine job. Can Dale and I come see it in person? View

Heymoe, The most neglected circuit on a fiberglass bodied car, be it a vintage corvette or a VW powered kit car is the voltage regulator ground wire. I recommend a 10ga. black wire with eyelets, from the block to the voltage regulator mounting bolt. Start there, and clean all your charging circuit wire connections.

I suggest a heat gun, on medium, with heat applied to the front of the windshield directly in front of the mirror tab. Be sure to keep the mirror mounted (need the weight). Hopefully the whole thing will fall off.

Thanks to all the members and friends that stopped by building T to chat with me, and check out my MGTDr in Carlisle.

The last 8 sections of fiberglass are back from painting. I have received all the remaining lights and chrome from my suppliers. I plan to have the VW powered TDr ready for the daughters wedding soon. Wish me luck.

I really enjoy the web site, very informative. Can I be identified on the members map? Thanks for your assistance.

Dale, For 45 years I have enjoyed the sites of the Skyland Drive, and am very much looking forward to the Blue Ridge Parkway in my TDr. Hope you can join me.

  Sounds like a plan Rick – let’s do it – get yours done this winter and Spring is right around the corner.

Want to thank Dale, Dean, Lee, and Gray for the afternoon visit this past weekend. A good day spent, and I learned a lot about MGTDr”s

The rear section is about finished. Trying to refit the front components before having them repainted. The fiber glass sections are in bad shape.

Hey Dale, I’m in, Maybe on a Sunday at my house? The garage is heated, and mine is not on the road.

  Rick
  Glad to see you posted.
  Still planning on checking your ride out soon. With 3 of us in the area we should be able to do some fun cruising in the Spring – knock that thing out.
  If you need some help let me know.
