Greg, I second what Brad said about powder coating the wheels. I also see no reason why the wheel interior face could not also be coated. I mention this as...
Hi Bob and Brad, Thanks for the input. It is hard to know what is best with mag wheels...but I think they came painted from the factory, anyway. So, might as...
Greg As far as I know all coaters will work the surface over to clean it and get an etch. The usual way is sand blasting, although specialty demands will use...
Chrome the wheels, bling bling! :) Why not do the frame red and then do the body work in red with gold and black pin striping just like the Falcone. I think...

Hi Mike, Great suggestions. :> As for colors, I decided to stay pretty conservative with the frame and chose gloss black for it and all the associated bits. I...
Hi all, I completely disassembled the clutch and transmission over the weekend. All in all, I'm quite pleased with the internals. Sure, I need to replace...
YES, that hole should be plugged. I just went out and looked at my spare and it looks just like yours with a plug in it. ... Looking for last minute shopping...

The emails appear to be sent to MGconvert@yahoogroups.com I hit spam blocker each time and the same ones keep coming in. I'll forward one so the admin can...
