MgMagic does carry a carpet kit but in description it is designed for Classic and Fibrefab. I went to local marina that did custom carpet and vinyl work for boats to get them to make door panels and carpet for MiGi

There is a serial number located on the engine case below the alternator stand. You can look up the serial number on Samba
https://www.thesamba.com/vw/archives/info/bugchassisdating.php for the year of production. In some cases the chassis is not the same year as the engine. The serial number for the chassis is located on the hump in front of…[Read more]

Have a look in the Library section of this web site where you will find wiring diagrams for a variety of TDRs. Problem that some owners will encounter will be some cars were factory built, some were assembled by owners and as many of the cars are 30-50 years old changes and modifications may have been made so the wiring you find on your vehicle…[Read more]

Have a look in the Library section of this site. You will find an assembly manual for a CMC VW based TD. On page 10 the brake assembly and master cylinder are shown. You will at least see how it was put together

I missed out on a set of Brooklands at a swap meet 2 years ago. I guy had expressed interest in them with owner but had gone to find his wife. I asked about price and was quoted $50 CDN ($40USD), I offered $60 but owner would not sell until guy returned with wife.
I believe that Moss carries the Brookland wind screens

Were they built with the fold down windscreens? Have looked at them on Moss Motors for my Sabine but given not all components are available have had to keep the original buggy style windshield. Certaintly looks to be in pristine shape but will reserve final judgement until more pics are posted

Welcome to the group Emile. There not too many of us on the site from the Great White North. As your TDR is built on a VW chassis you will find most VW clubs will welcome you into their club and will be a great source of info on cruises, meets, mechanical advice and parts. There is currently a cruise planned for Durham area on July 18 if you are…[Read more]

You don’t state the year of your donor vehicle so there may be a difference in the colour code but if the vehicle is a late 60s Beetle there should be a black and black/white wire connected to the signal switch that power the signal lights. Find the cable adapter (2) that connects the switch to the front/rear signal lights and flasher relay. U…[Read more]

Pictures to go along with your narrative will help us understand the problem you have encountered. Also pics of the steering wheel where the plugs are missing and where the plugs are in place

Eric, You will find a file in the Library detailing the wiring for a MiGi. Just start with one wire per switch or gauge and verify the integrity from end to end. One issue that many owners have reported is problems with the ground/earth/negative. As our cars have fibreglass bodies you have to run ground wires to each light, gauge etc. You may…[Read more]

The classic black script on white face looks like something from way back when. Tried zooming in but can not see a manufacturer mark on the face What make are they? Is the speedo a GPS model or is it a mechanical one? Unfortunate that there is not enough real estate on the dash to fit the two additional gauges you hung below the dash but…[Read more]

Assuming you are using a cable driven VW type of speedometer can you not just cannibalize a VW speedo and transplant the components into your defective one. Have read on either this forum or Speedster one that there is an outfit in US that can do repairs/transplants but have not bookmarked site as I use a GPS speedo. Ed is active on the…[Read more]

Any idea how the nut was damaged and how long you have been just adding fluid to the reservoir

What do you mean by issues? With shortening of the pan the following are also shortened
Shift rod
Fuel line
Brake lines
If manual transmission the clutch cable is affected
Likewise for the throttle cable
If reusing the VW wiring harnesses that will be slack created in wires to rear lights, coil, generator light, etc

Although my TD is built on VW chassis the wiring for a horn should be similar to what you are dealing with. The horn button will close a circuit to the silver box aka horn relay and will be connected to either pin 85 or 86. When the horn button powers the relay a normally open contact will close in the relay routing power to the horn. Pins 87 or…[Read more]

Have a look at this link which list all the screws and bolts used on a TD. They used Phillips, slot and Whitworth bolts to hold everything together
