Welcome Mark and Krysta! Where are you guys on the map?

Glad you found us. Curious as to the fix on the overheating. Keep us posted.

Great. Welcome. Keep us posted on your progress.

Bumpers from an original TD will also fit.

They’re scarce as hens teeth. You’ll need to supply the make of the kit and whether front or rear engine. You’ll find the grill from the original TD will be easier to find, but will require modifications to surrounding body panels to make fit.

If you haven’t moved on this, would you post a link? I would like to see what he would take for the carpet set.

Thanks for the heads up. Surprised I never received an e-mail from Carlisle Events. Got it handled and will see you there.

Merry Christmas.

Thanks, Stephen.

Well then. Looks like our hosting provider applied the update yesterday. All looks good. Please let me/us know if there are any problems!
