List

Just had to publicly say THANK YOU to Mr. Fred Thomas for sending me photos
of his cars and a Massey-Ferguson water pump cross over list ( all free of
charge ). It's very easy to promise something to someone when he's far away
. It's not always so easy to actually deliver . Fred delivered and in my
books he really is a great man . 

To those of you that have not had the opportunity to see his cars , I can
just say that they are awesome and a real inspiration .

Btw my bar is now stocked with one bottle of real German Brandy that a
friend brought back from a recent visit . Tasty :-) ... hic !

Once again : Thank you Fred .

Kind regards

Fred

Thank you very much . I received it today together with 3 photos of your red
TR 3 A and a photo of what I guess to be a 1930 Ford Model A roadster . ( Am
I correct ? ) . Wow , your cars are great and your wife seems to be
enthusiastic about Triumphs as well . You are a lucky man ! 

Your pictures are up on the " Triumph wall " behind the bar ( no alcohol ,
just Triumph books and models )in my TV-room .
Once again , thank you very much Triumph friend . You are an inspiration .
God bless .

Chris

Chris, I mailed you the Massey-Ferguson water pump cross over on Mon. a.m.,
I do not have any other list as a reference except the water pump. On the
washer, the pump and the knob are mounted together through the dash at the
lower left corner of the  glove box, a rather large open space (L.H. drive
cars). This is a manual push pump for pressure, the 2 male connectors out
the back of the pump would be where you connect the hoses  for the w/s
nozzles.  No other car had this type knob, or washer set-up except 2/3B,
even the T/R 4 is different. The washer bottle mounts on the inner fender
panel just above the wiring harness (between plugs # 2 & 3) looking across
from the fender. "FT"
