So we got Bill's TC moving after a 40 year nap...go here if you would like to see the moment.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=97G-RTsws8k&index=1&list=UUNjghRJwmCmUrvF1IvslpOQ I have the wheel up as far as it will go and as you can see there isn't much room for getting your foot in there. Gene sugg...

I'll send you a picture Gene.

We got a new knock off for the TC and I was aware before hand that it had a spring/and key arrangement. I've looked through the manual and a half dozen books but I don't find any reference as to how and why of the key in the slot. Can someone elaborate what the purpose is and how to properly put it ...

Lol..I went to a lot of trouble to get the low fuel light wired in....the damn thing is gonna work when it rolls out of my shop....soon I hope. I did a half assed attempted at a repair yesterday....I think a replacement is in it's near future.

pieces fell out of this one when I took the cover off and it's not exactly like the ones on my TD and TF. I like to see an image on the inside on one to see if I can possibly repair this one.'


Thanks,

Thanks, There is way too much resistance with the spring installed so I believe I will leave it off unless somebody has a good reason why I shouldn't.

I have all the pieces (I think) but I don't see how the spring should be installed. A couple of clear pictures would be most appreciated.

Thank You,

LaVerne

I f you had the car number, you might have a shot at finding it through a register list like this...

Thanks fellows,

Should help a bunch when I get back at the TC.

I'll be securing the new floor boards after I get the TC on it's new tires and off my lift. A little welding including fabricating brackets from the frame to the muffler. I'm wondering what the best way to locate the seat frames on the floor boards might be, I have some idea but would like yours. Al...

Thought you guys might like this story. John James posted a querry from the past owner of TC7134. Wow! that happens to be the one in my shop right now. The owner of the car told me he had his uncle purchase the car for him in Ireland in 1961. Sure enough the fellow is in Ireland and says he owned th...

Thanks Tom, that's how I will go about it then.

Thats what I'll most likely do Gene. Why don't you come on over and help. I could use some experience on this thing. Starting the interior... I'm not to pleased with the work I've done so far. Good thing I'm not getting paid.

I've got it on..tackling some new felt padding for the rear wheel arches right now. Still not sure about the side curtain box.

I could use an image to see how the felt was cut for the side curtain box. We sourced some felt locally.

Thanks

Thanks Steve I'll have a go at it this morning.

I know it was a b%%% on the TD and TF ..even with the pedals removed. So whats the best way to go about it on the TC ?

No problems on the front. The rear is another story. The back side of the spring peg stand proud of the shoe steel by quite a bit and will not allow the e brake bracket to slide by. Looks like I have to grind it down to make it work. crap.

Thanks Steve

Thanks Tim
