Seat and dash ??

Post by rmeismer1@aol.com » Sun May 19, 2002 5:34 pm

I am putting the seats in my 1947 TC and it looks like the back of seat sets too high (about 2 in. above the body work.) I have looked at a lot of pics and they seem to very a lot ,can someone tell me what is right? Also I am ready to put the center dash panel in and ordered the small bolts that hold it in place from Moss thay came chromed, Sherrell shows that they should be black what is right? It will have a black panel on wood dash. From M.G.( Meismer's Garage) Rolland Meismer Burlington,Iowa U.S.A. 1946 TC #3409--1951 TD #5522 [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]

Rolland The bolt heads should be black, there are two different seat backs, on my TC with the seat leaned back as far as possible it is about 1 1/4 to 1 1/2 higher than the body, on my TD it sets lower than the body, all the way back -----Original Message----- From: rmeismer1@aol.com [mailto:rmeismer1@aol.com] Sent: Sunday, May 19, 2002 6:35 PM To: mg-tabc@yahoogroups.com Subject: [mg-tabc] Seat and dash ??

Rolland: You can get the black bolts for the the instrument panel from Craig Seabrook. Look in the list of parts suppliers & restorers for his address. Craig is a list member. Ken TC 4147 rmeismer1@aol.com wrote:

Try a black permanent marker pen on the Chrome heads as it will work and save money and time. Or you can paint. BOB kwcp wrote:

Bob & Group, In my opinion, painting the instrument panel bolts is the only way to go. We can supply a proper set painted black for $8. What a deal. Craig Seabrook Whitworth Shop R. Zwart wrote:
