Ray,
I have an ORIGINAL tank for MGTA that I have stored 45 years, if you are interested.
Please send Private Message to me and I will photo and describe it to you.
Octagonally yours, Robert Griffey (timberstone)

There seems to be a very similar Horn Button & Switch at MOSS with some instructions about connection and placement of wires that lead from it.

Here is the Horn button on the dashboard of MGTC 0820. It has been there since importation in 1976, and have seen buttons identical to this on other MGTCs. Note that it has a large button, letters for "D" and "H" and there is no bulge below the switch. IMG_3706.JPG The next photo of a Horn button se...

The white-wall tired MG in the background of the photo in Krekovich's shop is not Trevor's MGTC. I think this photo was taken at an earlier time when Krek's shop was at another location a few blocks away. Some members of the Kansas City MG Car Club are trying to dig up more history about these Kreko...

Correction: the Address of Jim Krekovich's shop was 1638 Central Kansas City Missouri and the building is not still there.
Octagonally yours

Trevor, Saw your MGTC when it was in Jim Krekovich's shop in Kansas City in 1975 to '80 at various times while under restoration. He was located on Central Street in the 1800 block. The building is still there. "Krek" was the best and most artistic MG T series restorer in the United States at that t...

There are earlier discussions on this forum about the rear wing outer rim distance from the edge of the running board. Factory drawings show the rear wing wheel well outer rim exactly even with the running board edge. However several original TC's - that I have seen and verified - have the rear wing...

Think there will soon be removal of the unit and look inside.
Will report then.
Octagonally yours,
BOXLEY (Robert and MGTC0820)

Hope this is an appropriate posting thread to discuss what might go wrong with overhauling a TC differential, and to determine some cause for concern with the overhaul. Thirty Seven years ago, the differential on MGTC0820 came out and underwent inspection and adjustment. No change in crown wheel or ...

"I'm not aware of any replacement frames being made..." ............. About 15 or 20 years ago an outfit in the Northwest US made up about a score of new replacement MGTC frames for retail sale. They were beautiful and most went for sale off market. Saw one that was the last of the production line ...

Here is a photo of the very slight change to the Radiator Stay Tube mounting area that was required on MGTC0820 in order to fit the Hellings air filters. Stay Tube Mounting Bracket Modification.JPG The modification allows the Stay Tube to drop about 1 inch. The mount piece was just a small piece of ...

Ray, Is there any way to get some photos of the underside of the scuttle area where you are working? Hope this photo of the underside of MGTC 0820 can show a little bit that might help. MGTC Under Scuttle Supports.JPG If you want more photos, please ask. Just do not drill any more holes in the wood ...

Thank you very much for the Provenance on this truly singular MG.
Please add all information for our further understanding of the many mechanical and technical transformations that these magnificent machines undergo during their lives.

Is there any reference that describes whether there were any variations of coating or color for the exhaust manifold?

Yes, I am sure that this has also been discussed in this forum earlier, but let me venture an attempt here. The mounting pad material used by the factory, between the body tub and the chassis frame, was pre-soaked black felt pads each approximately 3/16" thick with holes for the mounting bolts to pe...

Seeing numerous previous references in this forum to use of a Panhard Rod on the front axle in conjunction with steering and handling improvements, this post is an attempt to determine the mechanical basis of, and advantages for, installation in our T series Autos. Note that exhaustive rebuilding an...

The MGTC3995 "Alfy" definitely deserves better than to be broken for parts, so perhaps also some creative input from observers and members of this forum can help its restoration. The scene of flame spread, that is shown by the burned out cockpit in the photos of TC3995, is so classic of the type of ...

There may be a discussion of the relative merits of some of the multitude of Camshafts and their grinds, and if so, where? Would like to research some of the merits of several camshafts, including listed in this Post as well as those that are not previously listed in this post. Particularly need enl...

Not sure whether reground camshafts are any good unless they are surface hardened, or "nitrided."
Does the cost of hardening makes the regrind not cost effective?

-- The radiator was given a new core, but maybe some cores are better than others.

Thank you again for more information. Now beginning to think that this "Old Grind" (from Crane 340-002) might be worthwhile after all and that it, by itself, is not contributing to overheating. However, sure would like to know some more about the durability of the current version of a Crane Cam that...
