Fitting up the brakes
August 15, 2017
Tommy is now away sailing the Suffolk coast for a couple of days but before he left our workshops yesterday he managed to complete the installation of the new brake pipes. As you can see, the pipes are not yet secured but are in the positions that they need to be.
We have also fabricated the brand new over-flow pipe to the sump. This needed to be made up as it is no longer available in the shape we require.
Removing the affected areas from our MGTC
August 15, 2017
We have now successfully removed the majority of the affected area of our 1947 MGTC with just the A and B posts remain.
It’s a surprisingly big task to take on but we are lucky to have caught it now as leaving these issues will only make the situation worse.
Once the A and B post are removed we’ll start to build in the new ash posts before re-modelling the exterior panels.
MGTC Revealing the A and B Posts
August 15, 2017
We have now uncovered the A and B posts of our 1947 MG TC to assess the extent of the rot and what coach work will need to be carried out to resolve the issues.
As you can see, the A post has been tampered with and corrected in the past as sheet metal has been used to shape and strengthen the panelling.
And as you can see from the B Post images, the rot has spread to 3 separate panels with the top panel, again being a panel that has had attention in the past. We’ll now start to get to work on correcting the issues and preventing the rot to spread any further.
