As I will be towing my car to leave at the show field, I’ll have my Subaru to transport those who want to avoid any rain.

OK everyone I’ve routed a nice pre-dinner cruise for Thursday to Grandpa’s Love Shack (same place as last year’s Friday run). Gonna step off from the hotel about 4:30 and do about an hour loop ending at the restaurant. It’ll be a short trip back to the hotel unless you want to go back the way we came.
Right now I’ve got me a…[Read more]

Beautiful car. If the top and side curtains are in as good a shape I think 10-12 would not be an unreasonable asking price.

Hi Amanda. Sorry it’s so kludgy to post pics here.
If the kit you have is all NOS with the parts still bagged you might get a couple grand for it. With a good VW pan (if that’s what it needs) maybe $3k or more.
As for where to sell? Damned if I know. I bought an unbuilt kit off craigslist in 2017 but since then that site seems to have become…[Read more]

These are the instructions prepared by the great Ed Ericson on posting photos on this forum.

Dale, you will be missed. At least you have a real good excuse. I hope everything goes well with her surgery. See you in Oct.

Guys
It looks like I am out this year. My wife is having surgery the week of the show so I will be helping her recover at home. It’s the least I can do since she helped me recover from my broken back. I’m fully recovered from that now.
I hope you guys have a great time and hopefully I will see you guys in October at VA Beach.

The VW column is from a 69 or so and the ignition switch and columm lock are available.
If it were me I’d put a universal key switch or maybe a true TD key switch and maybe a pushbutton (or pull!) ignition switch in that original MG center dash plate.

Gorgeous car Blake! The only tell is the round gauges. So hard to source those 2-year only octagonal ones!
