Jeff. Could you copy that tape?

Thanks for the link to this very helpful sight. Got alot of questions answered.

That was a fun read. Thanks for the effort.

Bill, What color is it and how much is it? Thanks

NICE TROPHY for a NICE CAR

Thanks Richard. I saw them. I bought them new from JC whitney. $20 each, but they are shiney new.

Thanks for the tips Richard….I’ll be trying them out as soon as I thaw out.

WISHING YOU ALL A MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY NEW YEAR. LEON AND CHERYL ARBEENE

Thats great…The wife and I just arrived in Naples for the next 2 weeks. Boy, I wished I had the TD down here…80 degrees. Just tripped over a restored TD and was pouring over it to see all the REAL STUFF. It was for sale for $25 big ones. Ouch. I guess I’ll be happy with my dual exhaust TD. Enjoy Florida and Merry Xmas to all.

Luckily the builder of my car was an electrical engineer. His work looks very professional…knock on fiberglass…one less thing to worry about.

Paul, I think I’ve just about solved the dilemna of the heavy engine cover. I purchased a pair of the lift tubes from one of the links you provided. I am supposed to receive them by next week. I’ll let you know about the installed results. Thanks for you clear expanation of your system.

Paul, I see the bracket hinges on your engine cover. Would love to land a couple of those, but mean while I’m playing with the idea of removing the whole cover like Bill Collins’s car. Might be too heavy though. As far as using my golf clubs on the engine cover, the vehicle will pull to the right to match my slice…very unsafe

Paul, The search goes on…I’ll see if I can find the “nipples”. I wonder if the porsche caps fit the corresponding VW 4 lug wheel for a 1971.

Paul, Check out Baileys pic….Are these the same as yours?

Paul, Just found them on the Whitney site. They have the EMPI centers.

Paul, Did you just reverse your piano hinge or was it built this way? I like the idea of opening from the top but what to do with all those holes. I followed your links and one was interesting to try. Larry, I’d love to see a picture of your prop rod, stowed and holding lid up. Thanks Dan, I’ll be looking for one that fits. Thanks guys.

I intend to take your advice. Much appreciated

I really appreciate all the help. Got my wheels sanded and ready for primer and paint. I’ll post the finished results. Many thanks

Thanks Paul. I look forward to hearing from you
