Hello gents,
So I’ve acquired the red ‘37 TA of which I had a thread on here about a month ago. The hood is in okay condition but I’d like to replace it. As I am in possession of a brand new Robbins canvas hood from my TC days, I was wondering if anyone knows if this will work on a TA?
Cheers,
Aaron

Re: 1937 TA hood
Can't speak for a Robbins hood, but the TA and TC hoods are virtually identical in size and shape. I've made a lot of them.
The shape on the rear bottom of the hoods for very early TAs is a bit different.

Re: 1937 TA hood
Thank you Tom. This car is s/n 1795 so hopefully it’s after the change. I’ll overlay the new hood over the one on the car (which dates from 1985 and was made by Don Trimming in the UK) and report back my findings.Tom Wilson wrote: ↑Thu Aug 17, 2023 5:17 amCan't speak for a Robbins hood, but the TA and TC hoods are virtually identical in size and shape.
