Nuts screws and machine bolts
Nuts screws and machine bolts
Having found two great lists of the various fixings used on the TD and TF would they be a good guide for the body tub to chassis and various other panels for a TC? Anyone any idea.
Re: Nuts screws and machine bolts
Those lists would be of interest to me.. There seems to be an odd assortment of threads on my car fitted by the p/o and I have been trying to instal the correct ones where can.

guys, a copy of the book by Malcom Green, MG T series Restoration Guide will give you 95%+ of all the bolts, nuts and screws you need.

Get a copy of Specification 259. It tells you all you need to know about hardware and lots of other stuff.

Hi Ray,
I got my copy of TC specification 259 from britbooks.com in the UK. It's an excellent reference for all sorts of info about the TC.
regards,
Simon

I have Green's book, which has TA bolts on pgs 138-140.
Does this Spec 259 apply to TA?

Re: Nuts screws and machine bolts
No, there is a different spec book for each car. The copies I have for TA and TB are incomplete. The TC one is missing some pages but not many. TC and TD are essentially complete.
