From Larry Shoer - Feb. 6, 2007 - TSO CD-ROM
Would you
please post the attachment on T-Talk? There is no longer a need for the bolt-on
search procedure I developed. The integrated search utility works well and
there are many other improvement in this Version 2
CD-ROM.
From Tom Pratt - May 20, 2006 - Tonneau Bars
This info would probably be in the FWIW dept. I have finished restoring several of the above and here are some findings. The TC bar is 38" lg overall lenght and the 'rod' is 'seamless' tube, .630 OD x .494 ID or .068 wall thkns, mild steel. The TD's are 39" long with the same specs except TD # 0844 is seamless and TD # 10297 has a seam with a couple of tiny welds. TF's of course used a different style bar on the back of each seat. tom

May 22, 2005 --- Lawrie Alexander, of British Sportscar Center in Cameron Park, CA, has let it be known that he has some items for sale that might well be of interest to some of us. You'd recognize him as the SU carburetor expert in the SU Carb Rebuild video available from Moss Motors (211-035). Here's what he has:
MG TF front fenders, two pairs, good-to-excellent original condition MG TF rear fenders, one pair, excellent MG TF rear splash panel, excellent MG TF hood assembly, all four panels, excellent MG TF wire wheel spare carrier MG TF Driveshaft tunnel, w/handbrake lever, good MG TF Gearbox cover, excellent MG TF Top bows, average MG TF Radiator with shell and panels, excellent MG TF Radiator, tanks OK, needs recore Last, but by no means least, one Marshall J-75 supercharger with manifolds and pulley bracket, for TC, TD or TF. No idea of its internal condition but it turns freely and smoothly and it appears to have been sitting, unused, for many years.
If you're interested, you can call Lawrie at 530-676-7226, or email him.
