Good find, Royal. They have lots of goodies, even roll cages.
They are in Great Britain so the prices would neat to be figured for dollar against the pound. Last time I figured it was about $1.55 to 1 pound. Also I wonder about the shipping costs.

Good come back, Bill! ๐
If someone asks, I tell them the London Roadsters were made in a factory in Deerborn, MI , in the late ’70s-mid ’80s.
For car shows, I made a display of the factory info brochures I’ve framed.
At many of the shows I’ve been to there are SO MANY modified cars, there are FEW that would qualify as even CLOSE to…[Read more]

That is a sad story.I guess there will always be those who look down their noses. They are the NOOU (not one of US) ๐ types.
I took my LondonRoadster to a European car show last year and well received. Lots of people came and asked about it. I had one gentleman come up and chat who had several MG’s in the past; A’s, B’s, TD’s and he was very…[Read more]

Looks like around $5,000,000 dollars worth of classic sports cars! Even the VW Beetle would be over $10k!
Some of them took the corner like they were on rails.
Thanks for the look back.

scubasteve replied to the topic Question About Tonneau Covers in the forum General Discussion 8 years, 11 months ago
While we are on the subject of tops, is it recommended to put the top up when short term storing, i.e a few days to a couple of weeks, or, as my top is as old as the car; 10+ yrs, is it ok to leave it down?
I’ve had three convertibles in my lifetime and been told ALWAYS put the top up when its not being driven to keep the top from shrinking, but,…[Read more]

scubasteve started the topic Fuel Additives in the forum VW Based Kits 8 years, 11 months ago
I have seen numerous ads extolling fuel additives, but, being advertisements, must be taken with a grain of salt.
I have heard that most of our type engines were made before the use of lead-free gas they tend to lose compression, and the wide spread use of added alcohol in gas makes the problem even worse.
They all talk about cleaning carb…[Read more]

Sounds like you live in ILLINOIS! ๐ก
One day you talk to one state employee in one office, only to be told by someone in another office a different story. ๐
If I have any questions, I Google it and look it up on the official state webpage. ๐ก
Hope you get everything straightened out.
GOOD LUCK! ๐ฎ

When I click on the highlighted “photo” option for the existing members,ย I get a blank page and
<header class=”page-header”>
<h1 class=”page-title”>Not Found</h1>
</header>It looks like nothing was found at this location. Maybe try a search?
Could this be because of the recent changes and the links are no longer valid?
