Hi all,
The list is up and running. Not that I have much going on lately TD wise. My '53
TD is still in a 100 pieces, just the front is disassabled, after doing that
right i'll go to the rear and in the meantime painting the chassis, changing the
wiring, braking system and fuel lines) I am still working on my house and the
two other cars ( mgbgt and a fiat 500) But I found some tools and time to
convert the FAQ (formerly asked questions) on T series cars , mostly TD but
including also other T-types, to a HTML format. It is still quite large (>300
kb, some 90 pages ) so it is usefull to download it once and then save it so you
can use it locally.
I made it for my own use, but others may like it too. It consists mainly of old
MGS-list questions and answers.
the url is:
cci.ct.tudelft.nl/danko/TD-memo's.6a.html
Hope you find it usefull.
I'll come back to the list with some questions later this year when I'll start
working on the TD again. I'll lurk along.
Greetings Danko
