side curtains

[Ben Cordsen]

Tom, My side curtains fit fairly tight and are straight on the long arms. Might be some allowance for fit from car to car however. I have used the TC in the rain, snow and sleet and it is surprisingly snug and dry although there are gaps here and there allowing for fresh air to enter, keeping the driver and passenger alert and fresh. The wipers even work to keep the windscreen clear. The high speed setting is accomplished with quick wrist action by the navigator! BTW, the headlight lens I was looking for you were later types, not the flat lens type.

To the group, Has anyone had any experience with Moss Motors completely assembled side curtain kit for the TC? I am referring to the fully assembled pieces. Thanks, Len Bonnay TC8154 [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]

While we're at it, can anyone comment on the same materials/kits from Abingdon or anyone else? Dick Warren

The Moss side curtain kit for a TD worked just fine. A little extra bending and drilling here and there, but better than building them from scratch, unless they absolutely must be right. I suspect they were designed in the 60s, with a little more latitude. As Tom pointed out, there were a few differences concerning originality, but T series cars are a different breed anyway!

I have a set of side curtains that are no longer needed.The problem is I don't know what they are for. I believe they are for a TA. Does anyone one have a picture of a TA side curtain frame? They are not TC. Cheers Bob [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
