Hi guys I really am sorry but I’ve just had confirmation the this car was fitted with a Tickford body and apparently the body is on another car in the uk ! I am now looking at maybe trying to get enough info to maybe have a go at this , yeah totally mad!!! I think I already have a windscreen and sur...

Hi guys just had an email from Brian Rainbow he wasn’t familiar with that code at first but he’s now confirmed it is the right dyno
Still very interested in anyone who’s do a modern equivalent

Hi looking for advice on the above I have started to try and sort out the electrical stuff for the above whilst I am grounded , The car came with a dyno that was wired up to a very poor harness so presumably worked , I have done some investigating and found it is not the correct one for the car ? It...

Hi Bob that’s great I do have,I am pretty sure I could put it together without the manual and I’ve took loads of pictures and marked accordingly on de construction, it’s just that I found a medium sized brass nut (bsp)in the sump which puzzled me ! Starting to think it could of been off an oil tempe...

Hi Mark I am not sure I would set my radiator up to suit a radiator pipe ,I am just getting to the fiddly bits Of a rebuild on my 1939 TA , I had a lot of hassle trying to get my bonnet/hood to fit both my bulkhead and my radiator. I had to pack my radiator up on one side about 1/16 inch and adjust ...

Hi guys I used 6 litres of single gloss paint in total on my TA plus the usual primer fillers etc
I used a trizac 3000 disc and the usual buff after
Starting to think I haven’t put enough on

Hi Bob on my 1937 TA .Hole ‘A”it had a small screw fixed through the scuttle to the front centre support ,I had other holes that had the tonneau cover fixings in.i don’t know if hole ‘’A’’was factory fitted!

Hi Bob see piccys, I’ve set mine so it follows the curve at the corner of the scuttle, also the top centre dashboard support needs to form a nice line to the front top scuttle timbers , Regarding the rubber seal both my cars were tacked on , spacing of them looks like it wasn’t critical just tacked ...

Hi guys looking for any history on my 1939 TA , Totally Ts in the uk put a shout out but not one single reply

Hi Bob survived!!! Great stuff . Not done much on my body as I have a 1939 TA which is my main project at the moment, hope this helps I have placed mine imagining the bonnet/hood fit to be level with the scuttle regards Mick

Hi Bob pictures I took at Hutson when I picked my parts up from the factory Just remember to set your timber door frame 4 to 5 millimetres out from the body timber door opening to allow for the steel lip on the door There's no seal fitted to the door oraperture all though I have noticed some cars ar...

Hi Bob just had a thought I think the wider bolt hole dimension over the battery section is to
allow the ply to sit in the rebate and not interfere with the lid .i shall check tomorrow when I get back home.
Hope this helps !

Hi Bob I know what it feels like ! Just wait till you start the bulk head front sections Anyway If you look at the first picture I posted the body frame bolts directly to the back board. The upright edge support is in 2 pieces.It leaves a gap for the infill pieces to fit into,they have a slight cham...
