I must say that it was a worthwhile venture;
Not only did I find a pair of front shocks for my car (to replace the ? shocks that are now on the car) but I also met for the first time, T-ABC member Terry Sanders (TATerry@aol.com) who came all the way from Oakland (500+ miles) for the event (some guys will go great distances to find a part). Nice meeting you Terry!

Thanks for the "Thank You" David. It is a little amazing how the thing has grown - thanks to Walter's know-how (and willingness) in creating a website and a "list".
I wish I had kept the first few (pre-T-ABC) email conversations between the half dozen or so TC owners that started to share information before Walter created the Website, ane before someone suggested including TAs and TBs.
We are now 451 members in about 23 different countries and growing. What are we going to do to celebrate our 500th member?

Car #1 TC1354
Correct matching numbers. Factory colour black with green interior.
Car undergoing full restoration.
Car #2 TC7773
Again correct matching numbers. Factory colour Clipper blue with biscuit interior. Rust-free, totally together and unrestored.
I have owned these cars for approximately 10 years and they were "undiscovered" until now. Please add these to your member list so others may see that two more
cars have survived.
I recently sold 3 other TC's which were not on your list, and also a TA, chassis #2953, if memory serves me correctly. I have a few TA spares left, such as an air cleaner assembly, outside laced rims, some body panels, and a neat book on a wartime journey in a TA which would be a must-read for a TA owner/nut.
