Re: mg ta gauges

Hi, the needles pull off. Using a suitable puller as shown in the picture will avoid (hopefully) damage to the needle. The pullers are available on eBay under "clock hand puller".

Re: 1951 TD speedometer- wanted

Hi, I have a s561 chronometric spedometer in KPH. The turns per km is 1000 instead of the 1600 for a MPH speedo. It has recently been restored by West Vallet Instruments Specialists in the US. I don't think it has been used since the restoration. The dial face is in KPH and the odometers appear to a...

Re: wanted: TC gearbox or parts

Brad, I have a complete gearbox or any parts you might need for it. I also have a cut down shift extension that, I believe, was used in an early Lotus. Also among the parts is a Riley gearbox which is more or less identical to the TC box with the exception of the gear ratios not being the same. If i...

Re: Chassis number for 1949 MG TC

Many thanks to those who replied to my enquiry re the chassis number. The situation has now been resolved. In addition I found its UK number plate, KGE 250, in the parts which came with the car. I have the history of the car from 1984 and, according to Stewart Penfound's data, the history up to 1966...

I have the engine on the chassis but I cannot find the chassis number which should be on the front dumb iron as well as that the brass ID tag has gone missing. Is th...

FT27 Foglight

I posted this request on the old index but will ask the same question here. I have a FT27 foglight that appears to be missing the medallion that is on the cross bar. Does anyone have a description of this missing part, or better yet a picture? Cheers, Hugh Pite TC2746
