Original Door Panels needed

[Tom Wilson]

In the midst of my research work for the forthcoming book about our T cars, I need original interior door panels from TCs (actually, all T cars, though TC is most important) to dissect and study. Panels have to be original with the pocket on them. Usable condition isn’t real important.
Green and Red used in TCs are most important, other colors from TA/TB/TD/TF are helpful. I have the biscuit panels from TC0279 but would like another of the same color.
If you have any you’d like to donate, let me know offline. I’d be happy to pay shipping for them (from most any part of the world) – or even pay you a small amount for them should that be important to you.
The book is rapidly progressing – you’ll find your donation of a door panel worthwhile!
Reply offline if you can help, and thanks in advance!

I can probably get you photos of some original door panels if that helps. Or do you actually need them in hand? Some TCMG members still have originals on their cars and I see them from time to time.

Steve, photos won't help with what's needed right now. My next step will require originals to be disassembled (untacked, untied, unstitched, unsewn, unfolded, etc.).
It's a project worthy of donation, and the results will be of benefit to all - just like Doug Pelton has done for us.

Tom,

Recently the Forum Email contained a post from someone looking for templates for a TA. Among others, he wanted a TC front pipe. Would you know who that might be?
