Nice fix. Well done.

Looks like the upgrade went without issue!

Hey folks I just spoke to Greta at the hotel. We are set, hospitality room is as usual, invoking “Speedster Owners Group” should get you in with us. Call the front desk at <span style=”font-weight: 400;”>(717) 766-9006</span> and if there’s trouble check in with Greta Bowring directly (717) 458-0531

She says currently Paul & Glenn, Al Greig, me…[Read more]

Thanks all. Bill tells me the normal Hotel (Courtyard Marriott in Camp Hill) does not yet have a Speedster Special deal. Al Merklin of the Speedster group is on it, so registration and (possibly) a reduced rate should be set fairly soon.

I plan to be there

Yes.

Thanks Gregg. We’ll see you there!

Hey folks, how many can we count on for Carlisle this year?

My old droogie Alan Merklin, who has traditionally handled accommodations, Is asking about it over on The Speedster board.

He wants an idea of the head count so the hotel knows how many rooms to set aside.

That sounds like a great project.

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.

Caveat: this interchangeability is between Ford and VW of the same brand kit. So Fiberfab to Fiberfab, Dutchess to Dutchess and Allison to Allison. If you have a MiGi VW and buy a British Coach Works or other brand dashboard it won’t fit.

With the exception of carpeting, yes. I drive a FordTD and had come across someone selling the soft trim package for a TDr cheap. (Builders garage had burnt down and these items were in his basement) Seat covers and tonneau fit fine. I did not receive a top so I can’t confirm. Carpeting for the back area behind the seat fit but the floor is…[Read more]
