quick release radiator cap

Post by O'Day, Mark » Sat Sep 17, 2005 9:52 am

Hello all,

I recently came across a web site of someone in Australia who makes quick
release radiator caps for Ts. I now can not find it, even with a Google
search. Does anyone know what/who that might be or perhaps another source
for these?

Cheers,

G'day Mark,

The bloke you are looking for is Geoff Norburn.
I too have misplaced his address but perhaps Andy Clayton or some of the
others from Melbourne can help here.
Worth chasing as Geoff's stuff is superb.

Thanks Reddo, I actually had this in my pending folder to look into but, as
usual, got busy with other things.

I'm waiting to hear back from the local MG club about who does this now but
the business used to be owned by a fellow called Peter Thomas. He sold it
about a year ago and I'll let you know the new contact details as soon as I
can get them.

Cheers,

Andrew Clayton

Why the need for a quick release radiator cap - apart from the aesthetics?
I thought you drank your whisky neat!

Close Reddo......the bloke's name is Geoff Norwell, and his contact details
are:-

13 Grove St, Vermont, 3133, Victoria, Australia.
Ph - 61 39873 4417

As far as I know, he doesn't have a website or email but I've occasionally
seen his stuff on Ebay. I'll ring him today to see if he is on the 'net and
let everyone know.

Cheers,

It is well known that whisky is a wonderful coolant as well as a wonderful
source of heat when needed.
Perhaps he is storing it in the rad "just in case".
Best,

Hi Mark,

No I tried but couldn't get an answer, and then I confess I forgot all about
it. I'll try again over the weekend and get back to the list.

Fw: [mg-tabc] quick release radiator cap

Post by Andrew Clayton » Thu Mar 30, 2006 10:36 pm

My apologies to those who get the digest for leaving all the old posts on
this one but it goes back a few months and many people may have forgotten
the gist of it.

I finally managed to track Geoff Norwell down after about many unanswered
phone calls. He is still making his MG stuff but it's very much at the back
of a long queue as he has many other projects happening as well.
Unfortunately there is no website nor email address and the only time he
tries to sell stuff on Ebay is when his daughter remembers to do it.

He can be contacted by snail-mail at:-

13 Grove St, Vermont, 3133, Victoria, Australia.

His phone number is now + 61 3 98730042

I hope that helps a few people.

Cheers,

I've got one of these with matching Petrol (Gas for our US cousins - why as
the stuff is clearly a liquid) Caps as well on my TC and can certainly vouch
for Geoff's products......
