Re: TC/TA Drawings [1 Attachment]

Well, how about that!  I didn't even have MY TA back then and already had a blueprint of it on my garage wall!  ;^) Cheers! - Mike Hughes  '37 TA 0512  On Friday, August 17, 2018 9:17 AM, "bdavispics@yahoo.com [mg-tabc]" mg-tabc-noreply@yahoogroups.com> wrote:   Hello Mike, You're correct in having seen the image you have hanging on your wall in a TSO.

There are a lot more incorrect things on the TC drawing than the shift knob. Sliding trunions, hexagonal radiator cap, sideways fuel cap to name a few. I seem to recall about a dozen of them but will have to look again since I've forgotten most of them. All but the radiator cap, which is obviously an artist error, are simply TA/TB items which hadn't yet been changed for start of TC production. - Steve Simmons, TC8975 On 8/16/2018 2:01 PM, bdavispics@yahoo.com [mg-tabc] wrote:

Hello Mike, You're correct in having seen the image you have hanging on your wall in a TSO. From a TA 'Anniversary' edition.

And looking closely at the image you attached you will see that the seat dimensions are different. Also a difference in how the springs are attached to the chassis. Sliding trunnions vs shackles.
