I can't seem to get the right hand door to fit properly after removing it to paint and installing new hinges. It appears to be hanging too high as there is interference along the top curve. I tried s

I bought the hinges from Moss. Turns out the right hand side needed 1/8 inch removed to make the door fit. I did this with a hand held electric grinder. The left hand side was just right the way it

Agreed, but I'm glad there are a few crazy people out there who are saving some of the basket cases. As the number of old MGs and other LBCs dwindle, manufacturing of new parts will stop. I hate the

Has anybody tried Waxoyl on the inside floors? Maybe it is too smelly for interior use? Would it soak into the carpet? Bob Donahue 'Still Stuck in the '50s' rdonahue@holli.com 52 MG-TD #17639 under

Hi Alan, About #2, I have a TD vinyl tonneau that's at least 30 years old and it was filthy. I scrubbed it with a stiff nylon brush and 409 cleaner (a common household product sold in supermarkets)

Hi Thomas, No. 1 is wrong, the badge should say MG instead of TD. No. 2 is original. No. 3 - The TD has 15 inch tires. No. 4 is original. (Old farts call these suicide doors, at least on U.S. iron.)

One HP is 746 watts, which would require 62 amps in a 12 volt system. Does it really take 4 HP to run the compressor? That would take 248 amps! =20 Volts=20 same=20 =20 =20 =20 and=20 long. Bob Donah
